M: Hey, Anne, long time no see !
W: Yeah, what are you doing？
M: Oh, just hanging around my suite.
W: Oh, you got a suite this year？ I remember last year you were in a triple. I mean, those rooms were really supposed to be for two people, but they stuffed of you in them.
M: Right. That' s why I got to bid first for my room this year. And now me and five other guys are in a suite.
W: So it' s three rooms for two people each？
M: Right. And how about you？ Where are you living this year？
W: I' m out in the Hillside Community. I really like it there. It' s a little further away from the Academic buildings, but it' s nice and quiet. You know, I' m net much of a party goer.
M: I know. Last year our crazy floor used to keep you up all night! De you remember when the RA caught me with beer in my room？ I had to do 15 hours building service!
W: That RA was so strict! In Hillside, since it' s mostly an older community, there are no regulations about alcohol. However, Sunday through Thursday, and Friday and Saturday after 1 a.m. are all "quiet hours".
M: Is it more expensive to live up there？ I know the apartments are really nice.
W: Yeah, a lot more. It's about $2,000 a semester.
M: Whoa. My room is just $1,400 for a year per person.

The popularity of flats for the better-off seems to have developed for a number of reasons. First, perhaps, through the introduction of the railways, which had enabled a wide range of people to enjoy a holiday staying in a suite at one of the luxury hotels which had begun to spring up during the previous decade. Hence, no doubt, the fact that many of the early luxury flats were similar to hotel suites, even being provided with communal dining-rooms and central boilers for hot water and heating. Rents tended to be high to cover overheads, but savings were made possible by these communal amenities and by tenants being able to reduce the number of family servants.
One of the earliest substantial London developments of flats for the well-to-do was begun soon after Victoria Railway Station was opened in 1860, as the train service provided an efficient link with both the City and the South of England. Victoria Street, adjacent to both the Station and Westminster, had already been formed, and under the direction of the architect, Henry Ashton, was being lined with blocks of residential chambers in the Parisian manner. These flats were commodious indeed, offering between eight and fifteen rooms apiece, including appropriate domestic offices. The idea was an emphatic departure from the tradition of the London house and achieved immediate Success.
Perhaps the most notable block in the vicinity was Queen Anne's Mansions, partly designed by E. R. Robson in 1884 and recently demolished. For many years, this was London's loftiest building and had strong claims to be the ugliest. The block was begun as a wild speculation, modelled on the American skyscraper, and was nearly 200 feet high. The cliff-like walls of dingy brick completely overshadowed the modest thoroughfare nearby. Although bleak outside, the mansion flats were palatial within, with sumptuously furnished communal entertaining and dining rooms, and lifts to the uppermost floors. The success of these tall blocks of flats could not have been achieved, of course, without the invention of the lift, or "ascending carriage" as it was called when first used in the Strand Law Courts in the 1870s.
Flats first appeared in Britain in the middle of the 19th century when______
A．they were principally built for those families with several servants
B．people were not conscious of the crowded housing of the less well-to-do
C．there was increasing concern over accommodation for the poor
D．people became conscious of the social needs of the rural population
听力原文：M: Hi. I have a reservation for tonight.
W: And your name？
M: It's Nelson. Charles Nelson.
W: Okay. Mr. Nelson. That's a room for five, and...
M: Excuse me？ Do you mean a room for five dollars？ I didn't know the special was so good.
W: No, no, no. According to our records, a room for five guests was booked under your name.
M: No. No. Hold on. There must be some mistake.
W: Okay. Let's check again. Okay, Mr. Charles
C.Nelson for tonight....
M: Ah. There's the problem. My name is Charles Nelson, not Charles C. Nelson. You must have two guests under the name.
W: Okay. Let me check again. Oh. Okay. Here we are. Charles Nelson. A room for one for the 19th....
M: Wait, wait! It was for tonight. Not tomorrow night.
W: Hum. I don't think we have any rooms for tonight. There's a convention going on in town, and uh, let's see. Yeah, no rooms.
M: Ah come on! You must have something. Anything.
W: Well. Let me check my computer here. Ah! There has been a cancellation for this evening. A honeymoon suite is now available.
M: Great. I'll take it.
W: But I'll have to charge you two hundred fifty dollars for the night.
M: Ah. I should get a discount for the inconvenience.
W: Well. The best I can give you is a ten percent discount plus a ticket for a free breakfast.
M: Hey. Isn't the breakfast free anyway？
W: Well, only on weekends.
M: Okay. That'll be fine.
