You will have no difficulty in making contact with the Agent. As you enter his office, you will be greeted immediately and politely asked what you are looking for. The Estate Agent’s Negotiator (房地产推销员) —as he is called—will probably check that you really know your financial position. No harm in that, but you can always tell him that you have confirmed the position with the XYZ Building Society. He will accept that.
He will show you the details of a whole range of properties; many of them are not really what you are looking for at all. That does not matter. Far better turn them down than risk missing the right one.
The printed details he will give you are called " particulars". Over the years, a whole language has grown up, solely for use in Agent’s particulars. It is flowery, ornate (华丽的) and, providing you read it carefully and discount the adjectives, it can be very accurate and helpful.
Since the passing of the Trades Description Act, any trader trying to sell something has had to be very careful as to what they say about it. Estate Agents have, by now, become very competent at going as far as they dare.
For instance, it is quite acceptable to say "delightfully situated". That is an expression of his opinion. You may not agree, but he might like the idea of living next to the gasworks
. If, on the other hand, he says that the house has five bedrooms when, in fact, it has only two, that is a misstatement of fact and is an offence. This has made Estate Agents, and others for that matter, rather more careful.
Basically, all that you need to know about a house is: how many bedrooms it has; an indication of their size; whether the house has a garage; whether there is a garden and whether it is at the back or the front of the house; whether it is semi-detached or terraced (联排的) .
The author believes______.
选项
A、it is better to be given information about too many properties than too few
B、you should only look at details of properties of the kind you have decided to buy
C、the agent will only show you the details of properties you have in mind
D、it doesn’t matter if you miss a few properties you may be interested in
答案
A
解析
细节题。根据文章的第二段的最后一句话即可找到此题的答案。Far better turn them down than risk missing the right one.(拒绝它们远比错过一个合适的要好。)B 你应该仅仅看你决定买的房子的特征。C项和He will show you the details of a whole range of properties;many of them are not really what you are looking for at all相矛盾。D项文章未提
