问题
M: Karen, I heard that (6)you signed a 15-page premarital agreement with your husband Steve, right?
W: Yes.
M: What is it about?
W: Well, it states the rules we both must follow in our married life.
M: I’d like to ask you why you decided to write this agreement. You’ve both been married before, am I right?
W: Yes, I’ve been married twice, and (7)Steve was married once before. So we have some experience about what goes wrong in a marriage. M: And that’s why you wrote this agreement?
W: Yes. (8)We found that many problems happen when a person has different expectations from his or her spouse. We wanted to talk about everything openly and honestly before we started living together. Also, we both know how important it is to respect each other’s quirks. We’re all bothered by things that seem small to someone else. Like, it used to really bother me when my ex-husband left his dirty clothes on the floor, so we put that in the agreement: "Dirty clothing must be put in the laundry bag." Now Steve knows what my expectations are.
M: I’m sure that some people hearing this report will think that this contract isn’t very romantic.
W: Well, we disagree. (9)We think it’s very romantic. A lot of problems occur in a marriage because people don’t, talk about what they want. When we disagree about something, we work out a solution that’s good for both of us. I’d much rather do that than get some "romantic" gift like flowers or candy.
M: Some of these rules sound like, well, a business agreement. Many of your rules concern money in some way... even the rules about having children.
W: In our experience, disagreements about money can cause a lot of problems, so we talked about how we want to spend our money and put that in the agreement as well.
M: So, do you spend a lot of time checking on each other to see if the rules are being followed?
W: No, not at all. And we don’t argue about them, either. As matter of a fact, I think we spend less time arguing than most couples because we both know what the other person expects. We can spend our time doing things we enjoy and just being with each other.
M: What happens if one of you breaks a rule?
W: We don’t think that will be a problem. Because we’ve agreed on these rules.
M: But what if, say, you don’t want to cook dinner one night? What happens?
W: Well, (10)we’ll talk about it and reach a compromise. Maybe there’s a good reason.
6. What are the speakers mainly talking about?
7. How many times has Steve been married?
8. According to the woman, why do so many problems happen in the marriage?
9. What does the woman think of this contract?
10. What happens if one of the couple sometimes breaks the contract?
选项
A、They think it is a serious breach of the contract.
B、They find a good reason to rewrite the rule.
C、They talk about it and reach a compromise.
D、They have to ask if this marriage really works.
答案
C
解析
本题问如果夫妻一方有时违反协议,发生了什么事。对话最后男士问了这个问题,女士先是觉得那不会是问题,男士继续追问后,她说他们会就此谈论并达成一个折衷方案。C项与原文一致,为答案。A“他们认为这严重违反了合同”与don’t think that will be a problem不符。reach a compromise“妥协”并不代表要重写规则,B“他们找到一个很好的理由来重写规则”不对。D“他们要问这桩婚姻是否真的有的有效”没有原文依据。
