单选题 What can be learned from the telephone conversation you've just heard?

[B] Mr Johnson is wanted on the phone but he is out.
[C] Mr Alexander works for ABC Imports.
【正确答案】 B
【答案解析】[听力原文] 8-9
W: Good afternoon. ABC Imports. May I help you?
M: Yes, may I speak to Mr James Johnson, please?
W: I'm afraid Mr Johnson isn't available right now. Would you like to leave a message?
M: This is Richard Alexander with Star Electronics. It's very important that he returns my call this afternoon.
W: Does he have your office number and your mobile phone number?
M: I think so, but let me give them to you again.
W: Okay.
M: My office number is 714—555—2000; my cell phone number is 909—555—2308. He can reach me at my office number before 6 p.m. or anytime today on my mobile.
W: Very well, I'll give him your message as soon as he returns to the office.
由最初的两轮对话,特别是女士所用的May I help you这一常用的接待用语,及Mr Johnson isn't available两处可知,女士应是接待员,而由男士所用的May I speak to... 这一打电话时的常用语可知,他是在找人接电话。由这两处即可推知答案为[B]。
