第一节　阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）

　　阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D中，选出最佳答案，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

　　Homebuyers nationwide are watching housing prices go up, up, and up. “How high can they go?” is the question on everyone’s lips. “As long as interest rates stay around 5 percent, there’s no telling,” remarked one realtor(房产中介) in Santa Monica, California.

　　“It’s crazy,” said Tim, who is looking for a house near the beach. “In 1993, I bought my first place, a two-bedroom apartment in Venice, for $70,000. My friends thought that I was overpaying then. Five years later, I had to move. I sold it for $230,000, which was a nice profit. Last year, while visiting friends here, I saw in the local paper that the exact same apartment was for sale for $510,000!”

　　It is a seller’s market. Homebuyers feel like they have to offer at least 10 percent more than the asking price. Donna, a new owner of a one-bedroom apartment in Venice Beach, said, “That’s what I did. I told the owner that whatever anyone offers you, I’ll give you $20,000 more, under the table, so you don’t have to pay your realtor any of it. I was tired of looking.”

　　Tim says he hopes he doesn’t get that desperate. “Whether you decide to buy or not, you still feel like you made the wrong decision. If you buy, you feel like you overpaid. If you don’t buy, you want to kick yourself for passing up a great opportunity.”

　　Everyone says the bubble (泡沫) has to burst sometime, but everyone hopes it will burst the day after they sell their house. Even government officials have no idea what the future will bring. “All we can say is that, unavoidably, these things go in cycles,” said the state director of housing. “What goes up must come down. But, as we all know, housing prices always stay up a little higher than they go down. So you can’t lose over the long run. Twenty years down the road, your house is always worth more than you paid for it.”

26．From Paragraph 1 we know that .

　　A．the housing price is not a daily topic at all

　　B．everyone is concerned about the housing price

　　C．no one would like to talk about the housing price

　　D．the housing price is a difficult question to talk about

27．Why would Donna pay $20,000 more to the owner under the table?

　　A．Because Donna wanted to save money.

　　B．Because it was worth more than the price.

　　C．Because Donna was tired of the realtor.

　　D．Because Donna never cared about money.

28．What do we know about Tim?

　　A．He made a wrong decision.
