听力原文

M: Okay, Miss Bright. I’ve finished calculating. I estimate you have between 210 and 240 square meters of walls and ceiling.

W: (12) [So how much would the paint job cost?]

M: That would depend on the quality of paint you choose. We carry two brands—one costs 60 cents every square meter, and the other 90 cents. The second is guaranteed to look great for about 10 years, whereas the cheaper one will start to dull after around 6 or 7 years.

W: In that case, we would prefer the more expensive option.

M: All right, then. So including labor costs, taxes, and everything, this job would come to $3,000.

W: (13) [Emm, to be perfectly honest, that’s more than I expected.]

M: Please bear in mind that the price includes moving all the furniture, and the whole task would take 2 days.

W: Really? Why?

M: Well, we can’t paint the walls without clearing all the furniture first. So every time we paint a room, we first have to move the furniture to another room. So that takes more time. Plus, it requires two people, which works out more expensive.

W: I see. But does that mean I could not live here in my own house during those 2 days?

M: That is correct.

W: Oh well, that changes everything I’m afraid. (14) [I would have to stay with a friend or check into a hotel.] I hadn’t considered any of that. (15) [I’m starting to realize that painting my house is far more troublesome than I had anticipated.] 

M: This is usually the case. Most of our clients go through the same realization.

W: I see.

M: You have my number. Please feel free to call me for any further questions.

W: Thank you. 

14. What does the woman have to do while the paint job is being done?

解析:C。在录音中男士说到,粉刷时需要把家具搬开,也就是女士在此期间不能住在家里,女士说那她就不得不住在朋友家或是住在旅馆。C项与此内容相符,Stay somewhere else对应录音中stay with a friend or check into a hotel,故C项为正确答案。

错项排除:A项利用录音中的furniture进行干扰,但录音中是说需要搬动(move)家具,并不是把家具盖上(Cover up),故A项错误。B项利用录音中的friends进行干扰,但录音中是说可能需要住在朋友家或住旅馆,并不是说向一些朋友求助,B项以偏概全,故排除。D项在录音中没有依据,故排除。
