20. What does the woman think of the roommates music?
21. When does the man say he will settle the issue?
Conversation Two
W: Hi, Sam, I hate to bother you but I wonder if I could have a word with you?
M: Sounds so serious. Whats up?
W: Well, the landlord just informed me that hes going to increase our rent by two hundred. How do you feel about it?
M: No way, in our tenancy agreement, it says he will have to give us three months notice if he wants to increase the rent.
W: I think he realizes his rental fee is below the market rate. Should we agree to the raise or find somewhere else?
M: Im not sure. The location we are at now is quite convenient. Close to the shop and near the subway. It will be hard to find another location like this one.
W: I wonder whether he will allow room for negotiation. Perhaps a hundred dollars instead of two.
M: He seems to be a nice man to talk to. But what if he refuses? Would you go for two?
W: I guess I would, since itll be hard to find such a convenient location. Besides, its close to my school and I can sleep a little later in the morning.
M: Ha! Thats what youd be concerned about. Im not sure I can afford an extra hundred a month.
W: Well I tell you, there arent a lot of apartments that are cheaper, even with this new increase.
