【答案解析】[解析] 92-94
Hello, this is a message for Mrs. Carly Anderson. I'm not sure whether you'll remember me, but my name's Alex Khan. I attended an interview with you last Tuesday for a sales position. I haven't heard anything yet and I was hoping you'd be able to tell me what the situation is because I have to respond to another offer by tomorrow, although my preference would very much be to join you at Schark Associates. Would it be possible for you to get back to me today? I'll be out for most of the afternoon, so if you could contact me on my cell phone, I'd be very grateful.

初级问题
如果在开始的时候就掌握了打电话的人与接电话的人的关系，会对理解文章的内容有很大的帮助。可以看出打电话的人是询问面试结果的job applicant。虽然有可能会想到面试者接受的是销售的面试而在(A)选项上犹豫，但是要看到(C)选项才是最正确的。我们还可以推测出面试官Carly Anderson是personnel director(人事主管)。

【正确答案】 A

【答案解析】中级问题
本题问的是打电话的人想要做什么，也就是打电话的目的。听录音时要特别留意表达说话者愿望或者请求的内容。作完了自我介绍说自己是参加过面试的人之后，在后面的I was hoping…这句话中说出了打电话的目的。

【正确答案】 A

【答案解析】初级问题
记住give an answer to another company这句话，留意文章中出现的有关时间的短语。可以找到文章中有一句I have to respond to another offer…，后面的by tomorrow就是正确答案。
