The report comes as official figures, published yesterday by the Land Registry, revealing house prices are falling sharply in every region except London. The worst­hit area is the North East, where average house prices have fallen to below ￡ l00,000 for the first time in seven years. However, they remain unaffordable for millions.

　　文章大意：一项报告显示，接近三分之一的英国家庭觉得住得很拥挤，但是却买不起更大面积的房子。

　　71．According to Paragraph l, the report reveals________.

　　A. children like to do homework in the kitchen

　　B. some families can't afford a bigger property

　　C. only a few families have housing problem

　　D. people are satisfied with their living condition

　　答案：B　细节理解题。由第一段最后一句话“Nearly a third of parents say they feel squeezed into their homes but cannot afford to move to a bigger property，a report reveals today.”可知，该报告揭示了一些家庭买不起更大的房子。

　　72．What Miss Baden said in Paragraph 2 means________.

　　A. most families don't have enough money yet

　　B. no family could afford a three­bedroom home

　　C. it is common to live in a three­bedroom home

　　D. the price of a bigger property is still acceptable

　　答案：A　推理判断题。根据第二段最后两句话“Afford­ability remains a key issue for families, with the average cost of a three­bedroom home around ￡ 193,000.Very few can afford to buy—or to rent—a property of the size they want and in the area they desire to live in...”可知，大多数家庭买不起他们想要的大房子，支付能力仍然是最关键的问题。
