Passage Two

听力原文

    When I turned 12, I worked summers at my father’s small brick-cleaning business. I remember the harsh acid smell of the cleaning solution, and the scraping sound of stiff iron brushes against rough brick. It was tempting to hurry a job—just to finish. But (19) [anybody who worked for Thomas Kahoon had to meet his standards, and that included me. If I messed up, he made me stay late until I got it right. My father wasn’t being mean. He demanded the same of himself.] Every brick he cleaned on a house stood out like a red jewel in a white setting. It was his signature.

    In 1970, when I was 20, I got married and moved out my parents’ modest place into a housing project. (20) [Drugs and gang violence were just beginning to plague the projects.] Some of my friends went to jail. Some were killed. My wife Verllen was 18, and nobody gave our marriage a chance. But we believed in each other, and our faith made us strong. (21) [When we married, I worked as a stock clerk at Southwest Super Foods. It was hard, tedious work.] Each Friday night a truck came, with cases of food that had to be unloaded, priced and placed on shelves. Most of stock clerks tried to get Friday night off, but I was always ready to work. By Saturday morning, all the cans and jars in my aisle were placed with labels facing smartly out, like a line of soldiers on review. That was my signature. I took pride in a job nobody wanted.

20. What does the speak say about the housing project?

解析:C。录音中提到,那时候,毒品和黑帮势力刚刚开始在这个住宅区肆虐横行,因此C选项符合题意,drugs and gang violence及动词plague均为原词复现,C项为录音中同一句话的被动表述。

错项排除:录音中提到讲话者在20岁的时候结了婚并从父母的小房子里搬到了政府资助的贫民住宅区,但没有提到从这里搬出去或者离婚,故排除A选项。录音中说的是20岁的时候搬进去,并非是住了20年,因此B选项错误。D选项利用录音中出现过的parents和moved...into进行细节拼凑,但D项整体的意思与录音内容不符,故排除。
