For information and inspection, please call your Kiska representative at f65)2227008.
This residence building has at least 16 floors.
文中第一段前两句指出“One residence per floor. A collection of sixteen homes for those who insist on living at their own level”。由此可知该居民楼总共16层,而不是至少16层。故本题表述有误。
There are altogether 16 apartments in this building.
从第一段第二句提到的“A collection of sixteen homes”,可知本题“这幢楼总共有16套房”的说法是正确的。
This building is close to Central Park in New York City.
第三段最后一句指出“Central Park at your doorsteps”(跨出大门就是中央公园),因此本题表述正确。
The most expensive apartment in this building costs US $2,999.000.
文中倒数第二句指出“Luxurious apartments from US $1,299,000”(豪华公寓1299万美元起价),但并未提到这座楼上最贵的公寓要2999万美元。
Kiska must be the agency which deals with selling the apartments.
文中最后一句提到“For information and inspection,please call your Kiska representative”(查询与看房请致电代理人Kiska)。由此可知Kiska是负责销售公寓的代理人。此处的representative与题干中的agency含义相同。
Buyers cannot visit the apartments before they decide to buy them.
从文中最后一句提到“查询与看房请致电代理人Kiska”,可知本题“购买者在决定买房之前不能看房”的说法是错误的。
Not every apartment has its own elevator landing.
文中第二段提到包括a private elevator landing(私人电梯)在内的豪华设施时,并未特别指明哪些房间有,也就是说应该是每套房间都有的,故本题“不是每个公寓都有私人电梯”的说法是错误的。
