On this occasion only, the conversation relating to this will be played first. 00:01:00,040 Hello? 00:01:01,120 Oh, hello. I'm calling about a vacation rental. The name I've been given is Carol Marriott. 00:01:07,400 I'm Dave, Carol's husband. We own it together. 00:01:13,220 The joint owners of the cottage are Carol Marriott and her husband, Dave. So Dave has been written in the space. 00:01:22,980 Now we shall begin. You should answer the questions as you listen because you will not hear the recording a second time. 00:01:32,000 Listen carefully and answer questions one to seven. 00:01:39,34 Hello? 00:01:40,420 Oh, hello. I'm calling about a vacation rental. The name I've been given is Carol Marriott. 00:01:46,700 I'm Dave, Carol's husband. We own it together. 00:01:49,340 Oh, right. Uh, well, some friends of ours rented, uh, Aster Cottage from you for a week by the ocean last summer, and they recommended it to us. My husband and I would like to rent it in the fall for a week. 00:02:02,840 Okay. When exactly? 00:02:05,240 Um, we're looking at the week beginning September 21st, if it's available. 00:02:10,699 Let me check. Uh, mm, no, I'm sorry. It's already booked that week. You could have it the previous week from the 14th. 00:02:19,780 Well, we could manage that week if we change a couple of arrangements. Um, how much would it cost? 00:02:27,400 That would be 835 dollars. 00:02:30,100 Ah, that's rather more than we wanted to pay, I'm afraid. Uh, we were hoping to pay closer to seven hundred and ninety dollars, which our friends paid last year. 00:02:41,220 We also have a slightly smaller cottage called Periwinkle Cottage. 00:02:46,560 Excuse me. Um, how do you spell the name? 00:02:48,980 P-E-R-I-W-I-N-K-L-E, Periwinkle. It's available the week you want it, and it's the exact same price that your friends paid last year. I take it you want a place that sleeps just two people like Aster Cottage? 00:03:06,900 Um, yes. Is it near Aster Cottage? 00:03:09,740 Yeah, it's right across the street. 00:03:12,100 And what's this cottage like? 00:03:14,020 Well, it's, uh, part of a historic building that was originally a school a hundred years ago. It was converted into a post office around nineteen fifty. Then later on, the post office moved, and the building was divided to make two cottages. 00:03:30,230 So is it on several floors? 00:03:32,600 No, it's all on one floor. There's a large living room, a kitchen that's really well-equipped, a bedroom, and a bathroom with a tub and a shower. 00:03:42,960 Oh, very nice. 00:03:44,560 From the living room, you can go out onto the deck, which is a great place to have your meals when the weather's nice. 00:03:50,760 That sounds fantastic. Can you see the river that flows through the town from the cottage? 00:03:56,620 You sure can. It's close by. You can see it from the bedroom. 00:04:00,460 Okay. Uh, would we need to bring anything? Bedding, say? 00:04:05,280 That's provided, but we make a small charge for towels unless you bring your own, of course. 00:04:11,640 Oh, okay. I'll do that. Uh, because we'll be driving, there'll be plenty of room in the car for things like that. Oh, that reminds me. Is there a garage that we can use? 00:04:22,940 I'm afraid there isn't one. Uh, but you can usually get a parking spot on the street right in front of the cottage. 00:04:29,680 No problem. We probably won't use the car much while we're there anyway. We like to go for walks. 00:04:38,580 Before you hear the rest of the conversation, you have some time to look at questions eight to ten on page two. 00:05:06,600 Now listen and answer questions eight to ten. 00:05:13,560 Oh, and what about the town itself? Are there any restaurants in the neighborhood? 00:05:18,640 There are a few, all within walking distance. A lot of people like the fish restaurant, but in my opinion, the Chinese restaurant has got to be the best for miles around. 00:05:28,969 That's good to know. We might end up eating out every evening. 00:05:32,640 Well, why not? 00:05:34,120 Our friends said the town is pretty famous for antique stores. 00:05:37,960 That's right. There's a whole bunch of them, at least ten on the main street. 00:05:42,500 Marvelous. Okay. I'd like to make the booking, please. 00:05:46,520 Great. We ask for a deposit of 200 dollars and final payment at least six weeks before your stay. But we'll be away ourselves for much of August. So let's say no later than the last day of July. Is that okay with you? 00:06:01,900 Fine. 00:06:02,780 Okay. Then let me give you our details, so you can send the deposit. 00:06:10,460 That is the end of section one. You now have half a minute to check your answers. ## 题目与答案 ### 1.
