〖Inside the apartment〗
<聽寫方式: 填空, 一空一詞, 不用帶數(shù)字序號>
A: Wow, there are other people here too?
B: It's a busy market right now and today the ____1____ are having an open house. Come on in! So, here we have the living room, 300 ____2____ feet, hardwood floor and two big windows overlooking the street. Off to the side is a ____3____ closet. Straight back here is the kitchenette complete with a gas ____4____, ____5____ and ____6____, and gas ____7____. Over here is the ____8____ with the bathroom on the left——a bit small but complete with a shower, toilet and ____9____. Then across the hall we have the first bedroom at 110 square feet including a closet. Down here at the end of the hall is second bedroom, 150 square feet, but there is not a closet built in. What do you guys think?
A: It's a lot bigger than I thought it would be, though it's too bad the one bedroom is so small. The hardwood floors are fantastic, and every room has a window——even the bathroom! Kevin?
C: I like this place. It's got everything we need and the location's good. I don't think we'll find anything better. Let's go for it!
A: Alright, let me start the ____10____ and if we are fast enough this place just might be yours by the end of the day! The best thing you can do now is get your security deposit and last month's rent together——that will give you better chances of closing the deal.

A: 哇,還有其他人也住在這里嗎?
B: 現(xiàn)在這里的房子賣得好,今天商家們要搞一個“家庭招待會”活動。請進!看看,這是客廳,300平方英尺,硬木地板和兩扇可以俯瞰街道的大玻璃窗。相對應的一側(cè)是一個儲藏室。后面正對的是個小廚房,那有煤氣爐、冰箱、冰柜和煤氣灶。從這往里是走廊,其左側(cè)帶有浴室——浴室雖小,但沐浴器、坐便和洗面池一應俱全。穿過走廊是第一間臥室,110平方英尺,帶有壁櫥。從這往南在大廳盡頭是第二間臥室,150平方英尺,但沒有壁櫥。你倆認為如何?
A: 這比我想象得大多了,盡管有一間臥室小些,這情況挺糟糕。硬木地板好極了,每間房都有一扇窗——甚至包括浴室!凱文?
C: 我喜歡這個地方。這里有我們需要的所有東西,而且位置很好。我想我們不會找到更好的地方了,我們就選它吧。
A: 好的。我現(xiàn)在就開始整理文件。如果我們辦得快這房子今晚就該是你們的了。你們現(xiàn)在最好是交押金和上月的房租——那會確保你們更有機會把房子租下來。
