【答案解析】[听力原文]
W: Nicholas, I stopped by the construction site this afternoon. I'm a little worried. It doesn't look like your workers have made much progress on my shop.
M: We're a little behind schedule because of the delay of the construction materials. But we still expect to be done on time.
W: Well, the grand opening is scheduled for March 17th. So I'd planned to have suppliers deliver the first shipments of clothing in the middle of March.
M: That should be no problem. We'll have your store ready by the beginning of March at the latest.
[解析] 问题是询问女子的职业,应该根据对话中出现的词汇推断出答案。由my shop和the grand opening可以得知,女子是某商店老板,通过女子计划让供应商在三月中旬运来第一批服装可以得知,她是服装店老板。
