问题 Why does the student speak with the man? [br]  
Questions 1 through 5. Listen to a conversation between a student and an employee in a university business office.
W: Hello. I need to talk to someone about my bill.
M: I can help you. What’s the problem?
W: Well, there’s a charge for eighty-seven dollars, and nowhere does it say what it’s for.
M: All right. Let’s have a look.
W: Thanks.
M: OK. Uh, this charge is from the Housing Office. Let’s see what the computer says. Hmm. OK... There’s an eighty-seven-dollar repair charge.
W: A repair charge? There must be some mistake.
M: It’s for the repair of a broken closet door.
W: Nothing like that—no way did that ever happen—not in my dorm room.
M: Are you sure?
W: I didn’t break the closet door, and neither did my roommate.
M: Are you sure about your roommate?
W: I can’t be certain. You’d have to ask her. But I don’t remember a broken door. I mean, I respect university property, and so does my roommate. We’re both too careful for something like that to happen. I’m sure that charge is a mistake.
M: There aren’t many mistakes like this. The Housing Office is always very careful. They say they fixed the closet door in your dormitory room.
W: I have no idea why they say that. At no time was there ever a broken door in our room! Maybe Housing got the room number wrong.
M: Well, in that case there is something you can do. You can appeal the charge by filling out a complaint form. The Housing Director will look at it, and if there was a mistake, they’ll remove the charge.
W: All right. May I have the form?
M: Sure. You need to fill out all the personal information on the top. Below that is a place to explain the problem.
W: OK, and what do I do after I’ve filled it out?
M: You can take it to the second floor. Across from the elevator is Student Services. You can give it to the person at the counter.
W: All right. I’ll do that.
M: I hope you get the problem cleared up.
W: So do I! I’ve got enough to worry about already.
M: Good luck.
W: Thanks.
