聽力每日練習(xí) listen 2617 Are?you?sure?that?race?was?the?issue

1-- Hello, is this the Legal Advice Line?

2-- You are in the right department. What can I do for you?

1-- I think that the landlord where I am trying to rent an apartment may be discriminating against me.

2-- Discrimination is a pretty broad term. What type, specifically?

1-- I have a feeling that he will not consider my application because of my race.

2-- Are you sure that race was the issue? What makes you feel this way?

1-- When he saw me in person, he seemed bothered by me although I seemed to be under consideration when I e-mailed him.

2-- Do you have any proof that he would not rent to you because of your race?

1-- I didn’t see one person in that whole building who wasn’t the same race as the manager.

2-- It is difficult to prove racial discrimination, but you may file a formal complaint in our office.
