【答案解析】[听力原文]32-35
If you plan to remain in the United States for any length of time, you will soon find it too expensive to stay in a hotel and will want to find another place to live in. As is true in cities everywhere in the world, (39) the farther you live outside the city, generally the lower the rents will be. However, traveling to and from the city by bus, car, or train may make it as expensive as living in the city.
Naturally, (33)it is easier to join in the life of a city if one is close to the center. For this reason, you may prefer to live as close, to the center of the city as possible. Or, you may prefer to rent a place for only a month or two until you be- come more familiar with the area.
(34)Your best source of information about either houses or apartments is likely to be the local newspaper. Usually, the week's most complete listing of houses or apartments to rent appears in the Sunday newspaper, which in many cities, can be obtained late Saturday night. Many people looking for houses or apartments believe that they have a better chance of finding a place to live in if they have all the information as soon as possible. (35) On Sunday morning, they are ready to call or visit.
32. If you would like to pay lower rents, where should you live?
本文开篇就指出住在大城市的费用是很昂贵的，所以… the farther you live outside the city, generally the
lower the rents will be (住在越是远离城市的地方，你的租金就越便宜。)所以你想付较低的租金的话，就应该住在远离城市的地方。
