Re: Apartment for Rent
Dear Mr. Jim Ricket,
I have heard that you have apartments for rent in Southwestern California. Starting in September 2, I will be working at California University and need to rent a one-bedroom apartment nearby. I do not have a car and will be relying on public transportation. I would like to know what I have available in the vicinity of the University. Can you contact me with suitable information?
I will be visiting California next month and want to arrange an appointment to visit an apartment during my visit. You can contact me by e-mail (dupree@quickmail. corn) or by fax directly on 850-452-3355.
Sincerely,
Anthony Dupree

【答案解析】中级问题
(第一篇文章+第二篇文章)第一篇原文中提到,“Anthony Dupree先生想在加利福尼亚大学附近租一套一居室公寓(参照191题)”,然后找一下第二篇文章中符合条件的租房信息,Sunny Gardens(阳光花园)是one-bathroom apartments/Situated near the California University(一居室公寓/临近加利福尼亚大学),故(B)Sunny Gardens是正确答案。

【正确答案】 A

【正确答案】 C
【答案解析】初级问题
