Passage Two
When you live in an apartment building
where only a wall separates you from your neighbors,
everyone needs to be considerate of each other.
That’s what happened in my apartment building.
Someone was alwaysleaving the clothes
in the washers and dryers in the laundry room.
I got tired of running up and down the stairs
to see if the clothes had been removed,
so I could start my own one.
Obviously someone else got tired, too.
Because one day,
someone took clothes from the washer and dryer,
and dumped them in the corner.
This act started a battle of letters posted
on the wall of the laundry room.
The first letter was from Mindy Lance who was reallyangry
that her clothes had been removed
from the washer and dryer, and dumped.
She then threatened to dump everybody else’s clothes
she herself found in the washer and dryer.
Mindy Lance’s letter enraged other residents
and they posted the letters to her.
Eventually, Mindy began to behave properly
but hard feelings remained.
The problem couldn’t have been resolved better.
If residents informed the building manager,
she then could inform all residents
that the clothes should be removed
from the washers and dryers within 50 minutes
after their wash is done.
Those who refuse to obey might not have their leasesrenew.
That could be a fare consent solution.
Neighbor problems may sometimes seem inevitable,
but it’s important to resolve them fairly.
Questions 20 to 22 are based on the passage
you have just heard.
20. What does the speaker think residents
in an apartment building need to be?
21. What started a battle of letters in the laundry room?
22. What does the speaker think might be a better way
to resolve the problem?
