单选题Fabulous Photo Agency 7A, 11F, Walker Building 297 Pimento Boulevard San Anselmo, California 94960 Modern Business Office Supplies 29 Haight Street San Francisco, California 94150 November 5 Dear Sirs: Our company, Fabulous Photo Agency, recently purchased several pieces of business office equipment from you. Our invoice is #3137, and we have paid the bill in full. After your movers set up our office, we noticed a few problems. First of all, your movers bumped some of the file cabinets. Though this does not affect the units' usefulness, they do look aged already. Another problem with the file cabinets is that you did not provide enough dividers to keep files separate. One of the office desks is missing its keys. The invoice lists the desk as #19201. The last problem is that one of the desk lamps is not functioning properly. We changed the bulb, but it still doesn't work right. That item is listed as #19249 on the invoice. We have shown good faith in prepaying our bill. Please contact us at your earliest convenience to discuss how you will attend to the above- mentioned problems. We hope to do future business with you as our own grows. Thank you for your attention. Yours sincerely, Margaret Carnes Margaret Carnes Purchasing Manager Fabulous Photo Agency

单选题TO: Events Staff FROM: Marinella Garnet, Project Manager SUBJECT." Upcoming Seminar DATE: September 23 As announced at the recent meeting, our company is organizing a three-day business seminar on e-commerce.The seminar, to be held six months from now, will be attended by small and medium business owners wishing to learn how to sell their products and services on the Internet. In line with this, I have posted a list of seminar committees and their members on the bulletin board.The committees are as follows: Speakers Committee, Venue Committee, Food Committee, Marketing Committee, Registration Committee You will notice that, except for the marketing committee, all committees are composed of new members. The marketing committee must coordinate with Mr. Donaldson, our marketing director, so that they will be familiar with the company"s new sponsorship packages. Since the seminar is free, I would like the marketing committee to look for many sponsors so that majority of the seminar"s costs may be assumed by income from advertisers. Make sure that sponsors are aware of the benefits they will receive in return for their assistance, including the use of their Iogos in promotional materials for the seminar. Furthermore, I also want the speakers committee to present a list of potential guest speakers. If possible, invite executives from online books, arts and crafts, computers, and clothing retailers.

单选题From: mattcohen @ paneuroassets.co.uk To: emirrenoff@tudorgrouphotels.com Subject: Arrangements Date: December 1 Dear Ms. Mirrenoff, On November 29, I e-mailed you to make a reservation for your grand suite in the Tudor Hotel Warsaw from December 7 through December 9. Now I need to know if it would be possible to extend that by two days. The refreshments that I earlier requested for my stay would also have to be provided, in particular the buffet lunch. I would also need the audio equipment and electronic slide presentation equipment. I'd prefer to have these set up in one of your smaller conference rooms by hotel staff by 8:00 A.M. every day. Ideally, the conference room should be above Floor 22, so that participants could get a good look at the lake which the hotel overlooks. The extension is necessary because I have just learned that product managers from our affiliate in Prague will be arriving unexpectedly to join us for talks on our marketing strategy. Ordinarily, I'd ask you to call to confirm whether you can do all of this and then have the revised itinerary sent over by courier. However, I have to leave the office right now to catch a flight to Madrid. If you could fax over the updated information to our office there, I'd appreciate it. I'll personally pick up the documents when I arrive. I know this is a busy time but I hope you can accommodate me on such short notice. Regards, Matthew Cohen, Business Development Director Pan-Euro Assets Corporation, United Kingdom
