Conversation Two

W: Hello, Mr. Cooper. [23]I'm Lina Redner, sales representative for Scarecrow Advertising Company.

M: [24]I don't think we have an appointment.

W: No, we don't. You'll have to excuse me for this.

M: Since you are already here, what can I do for you?

W: Well, as far as I know, your company was founded three years ago and your business has been quite good for the past two years.

M: I'm quite busy, Miss Redner. If you don't mind, just get straight to the point.

W: OK. [23]I believe that you must have seen a lot of S.A.C. designed TV commercials and billboards, and if we cooperate, it'll certainly make your products better known and sold. What do you think?

M: [24]I'm quite satisfied with the company that designs our advertisements at present.

W: Don't say no for no's sake, please. [23]Here are some samples of our designs. Have a look, if you please.

M: All right... They're pretty good but...

W: The payment we ask for is very reasonable. Besides, you won't have the bondage of a contract. If you're not satisfied with us, we'll refund the money. But, of course, such a thing has never happened. [25]We'll redo the commercial or billboard over and over again until you're satisfied.

M: [24]There's no harm in giving it a try, I think. Leave your card. I'll call you when the next new product is ready to go on the market.

Questions 23 to 25 are based on the conversation you have just heard.

23. What is the woman trying to do in the conversation?

正确答案：C

解析：女士是广告公司的销售代理，她在上门推销公司的广告业务。故C正确。

24. Which can best describe the man's reaction to the woman's words?

正确答案：B

解析：得知女士的来意后，男士说，他对他们目前的广告合作伙伴挺满意的，也就是说，对于女士所在的广告公司不感兴趣（indifferent），在女士展示了公司广告后，男士有所动心，要求女士留下名片（interested），故B正确。男士开始不明白女士的来意，表现出不耐烦（impatient），但后来明显表现出一定的兴趣，A中的reluctant（不情愿的）和D中的accepted（作形容词表示“公认的”）均不妥；C说男士已经convinced（被说服了的），不准确。

25. What do we know about the service of the woman's company?

正确答案：B

解析：女士说到，她所在的公司会不厌其烦地修改其电视或招牌广告，直到客户满意为止，故B正确。由payment back听到refund，女士说那样的事从未发生，故A错。由contract知，女士说客户可以不要合同限制，但并不是说她的公司不受合同限制，故C错。对话尾声男士说他会打电话给女士，但这并不表明他一定会把业务交给女士的公司，D错在语气太肯定。
