英语流利说 Level4 Unit3 Part3 Dialogue: Landlord Trouble

Landlord Trouble

You don't look good.

Is something bothering you?

Yes, it's my landlord.

Oh, it there something wrong with your flat?

No, there is nothing wrong with the flat.

But I'm going to have to move out.


What's wrong with her flat? Nothing.


Why do you have to move out?

For the last two months a friend has been staying with me.

She is staying until she can find a job.

That's nice of you.

Yes, but I'm not supposed to have anyone staying there.

Was that in the rental agreement?

Yes, it was.

It's okay if a friend stays for a few days, but not for more than that.


Her friend was going to stay until she could find a job.


So you broke the agreement, even though it was for a good reason.

Anyway, one of my neighbors told the landlord about my friend.

So now I'm in trouble.

The landlord is angry and says she can't trust me.

That's ridiculous.

I told her about my friend and how I'm trying to help her, but she doesn't care.


Who told landlord about her friend? a neighbor

She doesn't look good because she has to move out of her flat.


Wow, she doesn't sound very nice.

That's right, she isn't nice.

She is just interested in money.

In fact, she is going to keep my security deposit.

How can she do that?

Nothing is damage, right?

Right, everything in the flat is fine.

She's keeping the deposit because I broke the rental agreement.


What is the landlord going to keep? The security deposit.


What about your rent?

Yes, that's another problem.

I've already paid three months rent, so I hope I get it back.

What can you do if she doesn't return it?

I don't know.

I'll talk to my agent.

He's nice, and maybe he can help.

Maybe I should refuse to leave the flat until I get it back.

Be sure to take pictures of the flat.

What for?

Just to show the condition of the flat.

Then she can't say your friend damage it in anyway.

Good idea.

She's a small-minded, evil woman.

I should never have rented it from her in the first place.


How many months rent has she paid in advance ? she has paid three months rent in advance.
