单选题To: mildred.barrie@hostmost.comFrom: anthony.steadman@spotplan.comRe: Last WeekendDate: May 20Dear Ms. Barrie,On behalf of our CEO, Mr. Jenkins, and everyone else at SpotPlan, thank you for putting together such a stunning event for us last weekend in Redmond. We received many compliments from visitors who were visibly impressed with our booth exhibit. You really made our products stand out and your colorful displays attracted a lot of attendees. We had a 12 percent increase in orders, which we believe was partially thanks to your company's incredible work.Due to our success, I'd like to offer your company the chance to assemble another exhibit for us at our next event in Atlanta this July. It will once again be for a trade fair, and although the venue will be smaller than the one in Redmond, we consider the event to be no less important. We will need you to make a few changes to the exhibits you did before, as we have some additional products to show. 1 will be flying up to New York in the next two weeks to attend a conference. Could 1 stop by your office to discuss the event with you? I hope to hear from you soon.Sincerely,Anthony Steadman Marketing Director SpotPlan

单选题From: Myron Applebaum, EuroTravel To: Sally Legazia, IMT International Subject: Itinerary for European Trip Date: March 14, 9:45.25 a.m. Dear Ms. Legazia: Attached please find a copy of your itinerary. I was able to make all the reservations for your one-week trip in England, Germany, and Austria except for two. (1) The flights on your preferred carriers from London to Berlin were all full for Monday morning, March 27, both economy and business class. I can still get you on a low-cost carrier for that morning, or, if you prefer, I can get you on an afternoon flight at 1:45 from London to Berlin on SAS. Please let me know immediately. (2) Your requested hotel in Vienna does not have any suite vacancies for March 31-April 1. The Edelweiss Hotel, a four-star hotel in the suburbs, does. I can get you a large double room in your preferred downtown hotel. I would advise the latter because transportation on your tight schedule from suburbs to city could be a problem. As soon as I hear from you, I will make the changes suggested above or try any new ones you bring forward. When you are thoroughly satisfied, I will send you the bill for airlines and hotel reservations. Thanks for thinking of us at EuroTravel.

单选题From: Marry Keller ＜m.keiler@hartleys.com＞To: Sales Staff ＜all.sales@hartleys.com＞Subject: Expenses According to the accounting manager, only half of the sales employees have applied for reimbursement for expenses in the last 3 months. Please remember that you are all entitled to compensation for money spent while visiting or entertaining potential clients. This is not a cost that you should have to bear yourself. To claim reimbursement, you need to fill out an Expense Report Form and file it with the accounting department within 2 months of the original expenditure. You are also required to include original receipts with all applications. Provided that your claim is accepted, you should receive the money in your account within two weeks of filing. For sales employees who are still confused about the process, please do not hesitate to ask me personally for any help. Thanks, Marty Keller Sales Director
