D)自有住房率以及環(huán)境保護(hù)。【解析】在對(duì)話開頭，女士告訴男士很多人不了解小戶型住宅運(yùn)動(dòng)，所以請(qǐng)他告知觀眾這項(xiàng)運(yùn)動(dòng)是關(guān)于什么的，男士回答說(shuō)這項(xiàng)運(yùn)動(dòng)主要是關(guān)于增加自有住房率以及環(huán)境保護(hù)的，所以答案是D項(xiàng)。A、B兩項(xiàng)對(duì)話中沒(méi)有提到，故排除;C項(xiàng)是利用對(duì)話細(xì)節(jié)設(shè)置的干擾項(xiàng)，故也排除。

B)不受大多數(shù)美國(guó)人歡迎。C)只適合四口或四口以下的家庭。D)只適合租給窮人。【解析】在對(duì)話中，女士提到她看過(guò)男士的博客，他所寫的那些房子面積小到只有20平方米，然后她評(píng)價(jià)道，對(duì)于很多家庭來(lái)說(shuō)，這樣的面積并不現(xiàn)實(shí)，所以答案是A項(xiàng)。雖然對(duì)話中女士提到大多數(shù)人想要寬敞的房子，但不能由此推出面積小至20平方米的房子不受大多數(shù)美國(guó)人歡迎，B項(xiàng)過(guò)度推斷，故排除;對(duì)話中男士提到很多四口之家住在不到30平方米的房子里也過(guò)得很開心，但是女士對(duì)此并沒(méi)有作任何評(píng)價(jià)，故排除C項(xiàng);D項(xiàng)對(duì)話中沒(méi)有相關(guān)信息，故排除。
