【答案解析】[听力原文]15-18
W: Good morning, Housing Office. How can I help you?
M: Hi, I'm calling about the new, low-cost housing for graduate students.
W: Are you aware that it's only available to married graduate students and their families?
M: Yes, I think my wife and I may qualify, since she's still in graduate school. But I was wondering whether there were any other requirements.
W: Well, unless you have more than one child, you have to have a combined annual income that's less than fifteen thousand dollars.
M: I'm working as a part-time research assistant, so that's no problem! But right now we're living with my wife's parents. Does that mean we'd have to include their income, too?
W: Not necessarily. Why don't you stop by our office, so I can give you some forms to fill out and explain everything in more detail.
M: That sounds like a good idea. Would tomorrow morning be all right?
W: The afternoon might be better. It 'can be pretty crazy around here on a Friday morning.
M: All right then, I'll try to make it in the afternoon. Is there anyone special I should ask for?
W: You can ask for me, Susan Davidson, or my assistant, Bill Brown.

对话中男生说“I'm calling about the new，low-cost housing for graduate students．”意思就是咨询关于为研究生提供的特殊住房的信息的。所以选择B选项。

单选题 Why does the man believe he's eligible for low-cost housing?

A、 He has more than one child.
B、 His wife is a graduate student.
C、 He is a full-time student.
D、 He works at the university housing office.

【正确答案】 B

【答案解析】特殊住房的提供是有条件的，根据对话，首先申请人必须是已婚的研究生，其次除非有一个以上的小孩，否则夫妻收入合起来不能超过15000美元。男生说他是合格的，理由是他的太太是研究生，而他也仅仅是兼职的助研而已，言外之意不会超过收入限度。比较四个选项，B选项相对好些。

单选题 What can be inferred about the man?

A、 He earns less than ＄15,000 a year.

C、 He thinks his rent is too high.
D、 He plans to go back to graduate school.

【正确答案】 A

【答案解析】由于他的太太是研究生，暗示没有收入，而他也仅仅是兼职助研而已，所以选择A项。

A、 She isn't there in the morning.
B、 Her assistant isn't there in the morning.
C、 She won't have the forms he needs until the afternoon.
D、 She isn't as busy in the afternoon.
