单选题 4.

E-mail

To: John Lockett
From: Pete Hill
Subject: About the business conference
①I would be grateful if you could send me the subject of your speech so that ②it can go in the invitations.

A、 Pete is going to send John an invitation to the conference.
B、 John is asked to inform Pete of what he will present in his speech in the conference.
C、 John is requested to send invitations in which the subject of his speech is written.

【正确答案】 B

【答案解析】 电子邮件中提到：“①我将不胜感激，如果您告知会上发言的主题。②该信息将被写在邀请函里”。原文中信息点1可推知、John是会议上的发言人，由信息点2可知Pete是安排邀请函的人，他需要，John告知发言主题以便写入邀请函。由此可知，Pete并不是要给、John发邀请函，故A项错误：C项“Pete让John来发邀请函，并在邀请函中写明发言主题”，原文没有提及，故C项错误。只有B项“Pete让John告知他在会议上的演讲”，与文意一致。综上所述，正确答案为B。
