W: Good evening, and welcome to this week’s Business World, the program for and about business people. Tonight we have Mr. Steven Kayne, who has just taken over an established bicycle shop. Tell us, Mr. Kayne, what made you want to run your own store?
M: Well, I always loved racing bikes and fixing them. When I was working full-time as a salesman for a big company, I seldom had time to enjoy my hobby. I knew then that as soon as I had enough money to get my own business going, I’ll do it. I had my heart set on it and I didn’t let anything stand in my way. When I went down to the bank and got a business loan, I knew I’d love being my own boss. Now my time is my own. I open the store when I want and leave when I want.
W: You mean you don’t keep regular hours?
M: Well, the sign on my store says the hours are ten to six, but if business is slower than usual, I can just lock up and take off early.
W: Have you hired any employees to work with you yet?
M: Yeah, a couple of friends of mine who love biking as much as I do. They help me out a few days a week. It’s great because we play cards or just sit around and talk when there are no customers.
W: Thank you, Mr. Kayne. We wish you success in your new business.
8. What is the woman doing?
9. What did Mr. Kayne do before he took over the bicycle shop?
10. Why did the man take over a bicycle shop?
11. What do we learn about the people working in the shop?
选项 A、They are all the man’s friends.
B、They work five days a week.
C、They are paid by the hour.
D、They all enjoy gambling.
答案 A
解析 当女士问他是否雇人帮忙的时候，他回答说有几个和他一样喜欢自行车的朋友一个星期会来帮几天忙，可知在店里帮忙的都是男士的朋友，故应选A。B的five days a week过于具体，原话只说是a few days；C中的paid by the hour无中生有；D的gambling过度推断，对话仅说他们有时会在一起打扑克，不能说明他们好赌。
