Conversation Two

M: Can we make you an offer? We would like to run the campaign for four extra weeks.
W: well, can we summarize the problem from my point of view? First of all, the campaign was late. It missed two important trade affairs. The ads also did not appear into key magazines. As a result, the campaign failed. Do you accept that summary of what happened?
M: well, the delay wasn't entirely our fault. You did in fact make late changes to the specifications of the advertisements.
W: Uh, actually, you were late with the initial proposals so you have very little time and in fact, we only asked for small changes.
M: Well whatever, can we repeat our offer to run the campaign for 4 extra weeks?
W: That's not really the point. The campaign missed two key trade affairs. Because of this, we are asking you either to repeat the campaign next year for free, or we only pay 50% of the fee for this year.
M: Could we suggest a 20% reduction to the fee together with the four week sustention to the campaign.
W: We are not happy. We lost business.
M: I think we both made mistakes. The responsibility is on both sides.
W: Ok, let's suggest a new solution. How about a 40% cut in fee, or a free repeat campaign?
M: Well, let's take a break, we're not getting very far. Perhaps we should think about this.

Q22:What do we learn about the man's company?

男士在对话开始提议将这个活动再进行四个周。女士总结了活动失败的原因:一是活动开始晚了,错过了两个重要的交易会,二是广告也没有出现在主要杂志上。由此推知,男士公司主要从事销售推广活动,故选D项。
