It is also a status symbol. The “magnificent home” is set in a big garden. Of course, this kind of house is an unrealist

48、ic dream for most people. But even a small detached house, surrounded by a garden, gives the required suggestion of rural life which is dear to the hearts of many British people. Most people would behappy to live in a cottage ( 村 舍 ), and if this is a thatched ( 茅 草 的 ) cottage, suggestive of apre-i

49、ndustrial age, so much the better.Most people try to avoid living in a block of flats (what the Americans call “apartment blocks”). Flats, they feel, provide the least amount of privacy. With a few exceptions, mostly in certain locations in central London, flats are the cheapest kind of home. The pe

50、ople who live in them are those who cannot afford to live anywhere else.The dislike of living in flats is very strong. In the 1950s millions of poorer people lived in old, cold, uncomfortable nineteenth century houses, often with only an outside toilet and no bathroom. During the next twenty years m

51、any of them were given new “high rise” blocks of flats to live in which, with central heating and bathrooms, were much more comfortable and were surrounded by grassy open spaces.

52、ighborliness. They couldnt keep a watchful eye on their children playing down there in those lovely green spaces. The new high-rise blocks quickly got broken. The lifts didnt work. The corridors were dark. Windows were damaged and were not repaired. There was graffiti all over the walls.譯文：擁有一所獨立的大房

53、子不僅能保證隱私，同時也是一種身份的象征。當然，這種 坐落在大花園里的“富麗堂皇的房子”對于大多數人來說，只是一個不切實際的夢想。但是， 即使是一個被花園圍繞的獨立小屋，也能帶來一種多數英國人心心向往的鄉(xiāng)村生活的感覺。 很多人都非常樂意住在村舍里，如果是那種能讓人聯想到前工業(yè)化時代的茅草村舍，那就更 好了。大多數人都盡量不住公寓樓（美國人稱之為“公寓樓”）。因為他們覺得公寓樓最不能保 證隱私。除去少數情況，大多數坐落在倫敦市中心的公寓樓屬于最便宜的住宅類型。住在那 里的人一般都沒有能力住到其他地方去。這種對公寓住房的反感情緒十分強烈。20 世紀 50 年代，數以百萬計的窮人住在 19 世 紀的

54、房子里。這些房子又舊又冷，非常不舒服，通常只有一個室外廁所，沒有獨立衛(wèi)生間。 而接下來的二十年里，他們當中的許多人又住進了新的“高樓”公寓，里面有中央供暖設備和衛(wèi)生間，房子周圍是長滿青草的空地，相比之下舒適得多。但是人們并不喜歡他們的新家。 他們感覺自己和外面的世界隔絕了，到處都是冰冷的地板。他們懷念那種鄰里之誼，享受那 種能看著孩子們在那片可愛的草地上玩耍的情景。那些高樓公寓很快就變得破敗不堪。電梯 壞了，走廊里一片漆黑，窗戶壞了也沒有人修理，墻上到處都是涂鴉。36.
