W: Now, could you tell me where the idea for the business first came from?
M: Well, the original shop was opened by a retired printer by the name of Gruby. Mr. Gruby being left-handed himself, thought of the idea to try to promote a few products for left-handers.
W: And how did he then go about actually setting up the business?
M: Well, he looked for any left-handed products that might already be on the market which were very few, and then contacted the manufactures with the idea of having products produced for him, mainly in the scissors range to start with.
W: Right. So you do commission some part of your stock.
M: Yes, very much so. About 75 percent of our stock is specially made for us.
W: And the rest of it?
M: Hmm, the rest of it now, some 25, 30 years after Mr. Gruby’s initial efforts, there are more left-handed products actually on the market. Manufactures are now beginning to see that there is a market for left-handed products.
W: And what’s the range of your stock?
M: The range consists of a variety of scissors from children scissors to scissors for tailors, hairdressers etc. We also have a large range of kitchen ware.
W: What’s the competition like? Do you have quite a lot of competition?
M: There are other people in the business now in specialists, but only as mail-order outlets. But we have a shop here in central London plus a mail-order outlet. And we are without any doubt the largest supplier of the left-handed items.
Questions 1 to 4 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
1. What kind of business is the man engaged in?
2. What does the man say about his stock of products?
3. What’s the range of the man’s stock?
4. What does the man say about other people in his line of business?
选项
A、Providing aid to the disabled.
B、Selling products made for left-handers.
C、Promoting products for manufacturers.
D、Printing labels for manufactured goods.
答案
B
解析
从这三个问题的选项可以推断对话是关于某种商业行为。本题的答案贯穿整个听力对话。听力对话一开始,就提 Mr. Gruby 想为左撇子的人提供商品服务;对话最后强调说自己是左撇子用品的最大供应商。由此可以判断B为正确答案。
