听力原文：W: Dad says we should make a wish list for the redecorating.

M: The kitchen walls could really do with a lick of paint.

W: Yeah, there are quite a few tomato stains from all your great Italian cooking, Tim!

M: Art comes at a price, you know.

W: Yes, chef. Well, I think a power-shower would be fantastic.

M: (22)There's nothing really wrong with the one we've got, is there？

W: Well, I suppose it works OK. But it doesn't match the style. of our bathroom.

M: Who cares？ We only need a shower. What's more, doesn't the power-shower use more energy？

W: OK, let's talk about it later.

M: So what else do you want to have on the wish list？

W: How about a dish washer？ I'm far too sick of washing dishes after every meal every day. Besides, I have a lot of other housework to do.

M: Everybody in this family has to share the chores; it's a rule, you know. (23)Anyway, I think a dish washer may be a good idea; at least it won't spill the water on the floor everywhere.

W: Hey, don't try my patience. You didn't do any better than me. Last time when I had a fever, you offered to help, and you broke two plates. Don't you remember？

M: OK, I'm sorry. Oh, I nearly forgot that there is something wrong with the blender. The motor in it doesn't work. We need to buy a new one.

W: Don't we have a free repair？ How long is the guarantee time？

M: (24) Six months. And we bought it in March 7th, or 8th...

W: No, March 10th. Here is the receipt. And tomorrow is the deadline. We must hurry, or we will lose another 120 dollars.

(23)

A．Because the old one needs more energy.

B．Because the old one is still in good conditions.

C．Because they couldn't afford buying a new one.

D．Because the old one doesn't match the style. of the bathroom.
