W: Oh, hello, John. Are you using your dictating machine this morning? I’ve got a long report I must dictate. Could I borrow your machine?
M: Of course. But can you spare me a second?(19)It’s the message you sent to me about delivery delay of the control desks. What’s gone wrong?
W: Everything, John.(19)We have to get the steel sheets we need for these desks from new suppliers, while, the suppliers have got some trouble or other.(20)They say they will be a bit late for the delivery.
M: But they can’t be. These control desks are a special order. They are wanted for one of the big computer companies. It’s a very important contract.
W: When did it promise the delivery?
M: On Thursday next week. And there’s a penalty clause. We accept to lose 10 percent of our price for each week of overdue delivery.
W:(21)Oh, these penalty clauses. Why did you sales people accept them?
M:(21)We have to accept them; otherwise, we don’t get the contracts.
W: Well, let’s get on to the Buying Department. I already heard about the delay yesterday because we kept the production line clear to handle the special sheets. It’s a dreadful nuisance.
M: It will be more than a nuisance. If we don’t meet on the delivery date, it will cost us a lot of money.
W: Keep calm, John.(22)We can perhaps claim compensation from the steel suppliers for failure to deliver on time. Then we will settle the penalty clause.
M: Well, if we can.
19. Why did the woman send the message to the man?
20. What does the woman say about the new suppliers?
21. How did the man get the contract?
22. What does the woman suggest they do?
选项
A、To inform him of a problem they face.
B、To request him to purchase control desks.
C、To discuss the content of a project report.
D、To ask him to fix the dictating machine.
答案
A
解析
目的原因题。对话开头女士向男士借录音机;男士说没问题,但是他提到了女士给他发的一条信息,想问问是怎么回事,而女士则把具体的情况描述了一下,说他们的供货方出了问题,桌子的不锈钢桌面不能按时到货。由此可知,女士给男士发送信息的目的是想告诉男士他们碰到的难题。
