Why did Tom go to live in the country?
W: What made you take off to the country in the first place, Tom?
M: Well, I suppose anyone who moves to the country wants their life to be different in some way. I mean, if you have always lived in a city, something must happen to make you want to move. In my case, I just couldn’t face going back into an office again when it came to looking for a new job.
W: So you began thinking about the country?
M: No, at first I just thought about getting a different kind of work, social work with kids or old people.
W: And what happened? Why didn’t you?
M: I haven’t got any right diplomas, and it would have taken me two years to be qualified. I was not going back to formal education again.
W: So where did you decide to move?
M: I went right to Shropshire. [6C]The first problem though was how I could make a living — there are fewer jobs in the country, so I decided to start up on my own.
W: That’s ambitious. How did you start, had you got any skills?
M: I’d always [7D]had a garden and grown some vegetables and flowers, [5B]so I thought of a small holding, a kind of farm. But when I looked at the price, I changed my mind.
W: OK, a farm’s out, so what next?
M: I settled on a nursery and bought my way into a partnership…
W: Well, ladies and gentlemen, don’t go away — we are coming back to Tom’s story after the advertisements.
选项
A、finding a place to live.
B、buying a house.
C、finding means to live on.
D、buying a farm.
答案
C
解析
题目涉及Tom搬到乡下之后遇到的第一个难题是什么。由原文中提到的The first problem…how I could make a living可知答案为[C],finding means to live on为原文的同义转述。
