Lesson 23: A new house 新居
First listen and then answer the question.
聽(tīng)錄音，然后回答以下問(wèn)題。
Why is the new house special?
I had a letter from my sister yesterday. She lives in Nigeria. In her letter, she said that she would come to England next year. If she comes, she will get a surprise. We are now living in a beautiful new house in the country. Work on it had begun before my sister left. The house was completed five months ago. In my letter, I told her that she could stay with us. The house has many large rooms and there is a lovely garden. It is a very modern house, so it looks strange to some people. It must be the only modern house in the district.

本文參考譯文
昨天我收到了姐姐的一封信，她住在尼日利亞。在信中她說(shuō)她明年將到英國(guó)來(lái)。如果她來(lái)了，她會(huì)感到非常驚奇了。我們現(xiàn)在住在鄉(xiāng)間的一棟漂亮的新住宅里。這棟房子在我姐姐離開(kāi)之前就已動(dòng)工了，是在5個(gè)月以前竣工的。我在信中告訴她，她可以和我們住在一起。這棟房子里有許多房間，還有一個(gè)漂亮的花園。它是一棟非?，F(xiàn)代化的住宅，因此在有些人看來(lái)很古怪。它肯定是這個(gè)地區(qū)的一棟現(xiàn)代化住宅。
