M: Hi, Anne. Please come in and take a seat.
W: Well, I can’t stay long. I’ve still got these papers to mark, but I thought I’d check up your progress with the website.
M: Well, things are a little on hold right now. We’ve got a problem with the BBS. The free-lance web designer was not as good as we initially thought she would be. She informed us last night that she could only do simple designing and that putting up a BBS is beyond her means.
W: Well, didn’t you make a list of what you want from her at the beginning?
M: Not really, she was recommended by Jim and from what he told me, this lady sounded to be pretty qualified to do the job. I’m not asking for a terrific web designer but to build up a structure with all the basic elements of web design.
W: Did you ask her why she wasn’t frank with you in the beginning if she couldn’t do the BBS?
M: I did. She said I didn’t bring that up and that it was a communication problem. You know, I also realize that she is an amateur and is not what Jim has described exactly. That really gets me.
W: I know you must be feeling you’re being cheated or something. So what do you plan to do now that she got the job half done?
M: I don’t want to be mean. But, basically, I told her straight out I would not pay her full fees because she wasn’t honest with me in the beginning and because of this it has cost me time and energy on this project, since I have to search around for other people to complete the job.
W: That sounds fair. But I’m sure she must be very upset after all the work she’s done.
M: Hey, but who’s the loser here? I don’t think people should take up a job if it is not within their means to complete. That should teach her a lesson.
W: Well, it still means we need to find someone. I suggest we go back to our Dean and see if we can get extra funding somewhere in the Teacher Development Fund. Then we can get a professional to work at it.
M: We can try but I think we haven’t got a hope in hell.
Questions 23 to 25 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
23. What was the website designer not honest about?
24. How will the man deal with the dishonest website designer?
25. How does the woman propose the website design problem be solved?

选项 A、He will scold her.
B、He won’t pay her any money.
C、He will tell her to do it again.
D、He will pay her only part of the salary.

答案 D

解析 选项中的He will scold her/tell her to do it again,won’t pay her 等表明,本题可能者查男士如何处理这位设计师。对话中男士提到But…I will not pay her full fees,[D]中的will pay her only part of the salary是对对话中will not pay her full fees的同义转述,故答案为[D]。
