W: Ok. I'll see what I can do.

考生应全力捕捉有关时间的事实,注意时间的变化。关键信息出现在对话的后半部分。“What about your Wednesday two o'clock conference call...”“Oh,yes. See if you can push that forward to noon Thursday”. See if意思为“看看是否……”,noon为关键词,考察考生语义转换能力。故选C。

W: Ok, I'll reserve that for you.

讨论地点题。原文提到“But 102 is free so is 103.”“103 will be too small. So I'd better had the other one.”关键词是the other one.两者中的另一个。是对选项中“102”的同义转述。故选B。
单选题 Which chart is correct?
【正确答案】 A
【答案解析】[解析] Looking at our main markets, Guangzhou now represents 42 % of all sales. Shanghai and Beijing are the other two main players, with sales in Beijing at 34%, unlike last year when Shanghai had the bigger share. 图表题应根据图表内容进行充分的浏览区分。三个城市由三个不同颜色柱形表示;最高的柱形广州指示的数字在40%以上;图形走势也有不同。原文提到Guangzhou now represents 42% 0f all sales。强干扰内容为Shanghai had the bigger share。有了前面的浏览区分的准备,故选A。

单选题 What does the company import?
【正确答案】 B
【答案解析】[解析]
I want us to think in terms of purchasing more of our products abroad. We've already started buying cell phones directly from an overseas company, and it's saved us a lot of money. So why don't we import our desk lamps direct from the overseas suppliers rather than go through a middle man? Or even laptops? I know there are complications with insurance, but it's worth a try.

根据选择项的内容,做题时全力捕捉与“电脑,手机,台灯”这三个不同物品有关的不同信息。因此最关键的三个信息是“We've already started buying cell phones from an overseas company” “Why don't we import our desk lamps...”“Or even laptops?”why don't表示提出建议,而完成时态的应用,可知已经进口手机,故选B。
