M: (9) Hey, any idea of what to do this summer vacation? There doesn’t seem to be any jobs available.( 男士问女士暑假有没有工作可作。可见他暑假想要打工挣钱。)
W: Why don’t you try house-sitting? (10) Last summer my friend Marsha house-sat for the Howards when they went away on vacation. Mr. Howard hired Marsha to stay in their house because he didn’t want to leave it empty.(Howard 夫妇让女士的朋友Marsha 住在他们度假期间住在他们的房子里。)
M: You mean the Howards paid Marsha just to live in their house?
W: It wasn’t that easy. (11) She had to mow the lawn and water the house plants. And when Eric house-sat for Dr. Cohen, he had to take care of her pets(. Marsha照看房子的时候要修剪草坪,给植物浇水,Eric 托管房子时还要照看宠物。)
M: House-sitting sounds like a good job. (11) I guess it is a little like baby-sitting — except you take care of a house instead of children(.房屋托管有些像看孩子,只是你要照看的是房子而不是孩子。可见看孩子不在房屋托管的范畴内。)
W: The student employment office still has a few jobs posted.
M: Do I just have to fill out an application?
W: (12) Margaret and Eric had the interview with the homeowners and provided three references each.(房主要对房屋托管者进行面试,而且要求推荐函。)
M: That seems like a lot of trouble for a summer job.
W: Well, the homeowners want some guarantee that they can trust the house-sitter. You know they want to make sure you’re not the type who’ll throw wild parties in their house, or move a group of friends in with you.
M: House-sitters who do that sort of thing probably aren’t paid then.
W: Usually they’re paid anyway just because the homeowners don’t want to make a fuss. But if the homeowner reported it, then the house-sitter wouldn’t be able to get another job. So why don’t you apply?
M: Yeah, I think I will.
