Questions 1 to 5 are based on an interview. At the end of the interview you will be given 10 seconds to answer each of the following five

17、questions. Now listen to the interview. 1 【听力原文】 Interviewer(M)Mrs. Elizabeth Mutwa(W) M: Welcome to our show.(1)Today were going to discuss some important questions about women and inheritance. For example, what happens to a woman when her husband dies, and who becomes the rightful owner of his pro

18、perty? Is there anything a woman can do to ensure that she receives the property? To help us answer these and other questions, weve invited a lawyer, Mrs. Elizabeth Mutwa, to join us. Welcome to the show, Mrs. Mutwa. W: Thank you. Its a pleasure to be here. M: Mrs. Mutwa, let me start by asking you

19、this. What are some of the concerns you have about women and the inheritance laws that affect them? W: Every day I meet women whose husbands are dying. These women are afraid that they are going to lose everything their home, their land, their livestock.and they believe there is nothing they can do

20、about it. That is a terrible, desperate feeling. M: Yes, to feel that you are going to lose everything is terrifying. W: Of course it is. And Im sorry to say that often a woman does lose everythingbecause(2)the property is taken by her husbands relatives. We call this property grabbing. M: Is there

21、any way to prevent property grabbing and return property to the woman? W: Yes.(3)Women have legal rights to land and other properties. But unfortunately, most women dont know this. So they dont take any action. M: You mean women think that the law is against them so they dont challenge it? W: Thats

22、right. But again, I want to make this very clear. The law is not against women. Women have rights to keep property they just dont know it! M: So,(4)its important for women to understand what rights they have, and how the law works. W: Exactly. Once they know the laws, they can take steps to make sur

23、e that they keep their home and their land. M: Okay, so I guess that when women come to you for help, this is one of the things you recommend learn about the local laws. What else can a woman do? W: I always recommend that a woman do three things.(5-1)First, discuss the importance of making a will w

24、ith your husband. Encourage him to make a will in the presence of witnesses.(5-2)Number two, find out if it is possible to register the home where you live with your husband. If you can, you will remain the owner of the land and house after your husbands death.(5-3)Number three, get legal advice fro

25、m a lawyer, a paralegal or a local organization that offers this type of assistance. They can help you understand your rights and the law. M: Mrs. Mutwa, I think the advice that youve offered here on the program will help many women. Do you think that this kind of property grabbing will definitely a

26、ffect womens lives after their husbands death? W: Definitely. Some of the women hope that the inheritance given by their husbands would help them out. Well, as a matter of fact, however, the fact proves that they always lose their things left by their husbands as their husbands relatives always ask

27、her to divide the things with them. The relatives put forward that property and asset in her family are mostly produced by the husband. And so the wife should not take all of them away. The women have no idea about what she deserves: some of them even take it for granted that the property should be

28、returned to the husbands family. This is the essence of the problem. I hope that women should have this kind of awareness that they should go to seek for help from some professional lawyers. M: Thank you for joining us today. W: Youre most welcome. 1 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 本题设题点在访谈开始处。根据句 (1)可知，访谈一开始，采访者就表
