【正确答案】 C
【答案解析】[听力原文] W: Jack, sit down and listen. This is important. We'll have to tackle the problems of exporting step by step. And the first move is to get an up-to-date picture of where we stand now. M: Why don't we just concentrate on expanding here at home? W: Of course, we should hold on to our position here. But you must admit the market here is limited. M: Yes, but it's safe. The government keeps out foreigners with import controls, though I must admit I feel sure we could hold our own against foreign bikes. W: I agree. That's why I'm suggesting exporting, because I feel we can compete with the best of them. M: What you are really saying is that we'd make more profit by selling bikes abroad, where we have a cost advantage and can charge higher prices. W: Exactly. M: But, wait a minute. Packaging, shipping, financing, etc. will push up our costs and we could end up no better off, maybe worse off. W: OK. Now there are extra costs involved. But if we do it right, they can be built into the price of the bike and we can still be competitive. M: How sure are you about our chances of success in the foreign market? W: Well, that's the sticky one. It's going to need a lot of research, I'm hoping to get your help. Well, come on, Jack. Is it worth it, or not? M: There'll be a lot of problems. W: Nothing we can't handle. M: Um...I'm not that hopeful. But, yes, I think we should go ahead with a feasibility study. W: Marvelous, Jack. I was hoping you'd be on my side. What does the woman intend to do? 在对话一开始,女士就对男士说,他们必须一步步地处理出口的问题,而第一步就是弄明白他们当前的处境。男士问为什么不仅仅专注于开拓国内市场,女士回答说当然必须保持他们在国内的市场地位,但是国内市场是有限的。由此可知,女士希望能够拓展国外市场的业务,四个选项中只有C项符合此意,故为正确答案,同时也可排除D项。A、B两项对话中均未提及,都可排除。

【正确答案】 B
【答案解析】[听力原文] Why does the man think it's safe to focus On the home market? 在对话中,当女士说国内市场比较有限之后,男士回答说,虽然如此,但是国内市场比较安全,因为政府通过进口管制政策限制外国商品的进入,所以他非常确信他们可以维持在国内的市场地位,抵制国外生产的自行车的竞争。由此可知,男士认为专注于国内市场比较安全的原因是政府对自行车进口有管制,故B项正确。A、C两项对话中未提及;D项说的是两位说话者所在公司生产的产品在国外市场而非国内市场的优势,故三项均可排除。

【正确答案】 A
【答案解析】[听力原文] What is the man's concern about selling bikes abroad? 在对话中,男士指出,女士的意思是通过往国外销售自行车可以赚取更多的利润,因为他们有成本优势,可以将价格定得更高。女士表示同意。但是男士接着又说,包装、运货、筹措资金等将会让他们的出口成本增加,最后的情况可能不会更好,甚至会更糟。也就是说,男士担心额外的成本增加会耗尽他们的产品在国外市场的销售利润,故A项正确。其他三项对话中均未提及,都可排除。

【正确答案】 C
【答案解析】[听力原文] What do the speakers agree to do? 在对话的最后部分,男士问女士对于他们在国外市场获得成功有几成把握,女士说不确定,还需要进行很多调研,并鼓励男士这么做。男士说这样做会有很多问题,女士说没有什么问题解决不了,于是最后男士说虽然自己不像女士那样充满希望,但是他也认为应该先进行一项可行性调查。由此可知,另女双方最后都同意的事情是进行一项可行性调查,即C项正确。其他三项对话中均未提及,都可排除。
