问题 What did Alex want to emphasize at the end of his presentation?
As the new sales director for a national computer firm, Alex Gordon was looking forward to his first meeting with the company’s district managers. Everyone arrived on time, and Alex’s presentation went extremely well. He decided to end the meeting with the conversation about the importance of the district managers to the company’s plans. "I believe we are going to continue to increase our share of the market," he began, "because of the quality of the people in this room. The district manager is the key to the success of the sales representatives in his district. He sets the term for everyone else. If he has ambitious goals and is willing to put in long hours, everyone in his unit will follow his example." When Alex was finished, he received polite applauses, but hardly the warm response he had hoped for. Later he spoke with one of the senior managers. "Things were going so well until the end", Alex said disappointedly. "Obviously, I said the wrong thing." "Yes", the district manager replied. "Half of our managers are women. Most have worked their way up from sales representatives, and they are very proud of the role they played in the company’s growth. They don’t care at all about political correctness. But they were definitely surprised and distressed to be referred to as ’he’ in your speech. "

选项 A、The support provided by the regular clients.
B、The initiative shown by the sales representatives.
C、The urgency of implementing the company’s plans.
D、The important part played by district managers.

答案 D

解析 细节题。本题询问Alex在他的讲话最后想强调什么。文章中提到在会议结束时,He(Alex)decided to end the meeting with the conversation about the importance of the district managers to the company plans.(Alex决定以强调区域经理在公司计划中所起的重要作用来结束会议),D项表述与之相符。A是说固定客户提供的支持;B是说销售代表展现出的主动性;C是说实施公司计划的紧迫性。原文均未提及。因此D为正确答案。
