What is Lorraine Melvill’s business? [br]
In a suburb in northern Johannesburg South Africa, Lorraine Melvill is running around trying to organize hospital visits for her clients staying in her guest house. She started her business, "Surgeon and Safari," back in 2000 and since then she has had people from all over the world come to her to facilitate their cosmetic procedures, and perhaps go on safari too. "For most people in the first-world economies like the UK, and especially in America, their biggest desire is to go on African safari," she explains, "and yet their greatest want in their life was to have plastic surgery, so why not put the two together?" Like most companies, however, Surgeon and Safari was hit by the global financial crisis, particularly as a number of Melvill’s clients were borrowing money to afford their procedures. However, whilst the United States and eurozone economies may have languished, Melvill says that she has benefited from the growth of some African countries’ economies. "There is a huge emergence of local Africans that chose to come to South Africa for elective surgery, whether it be breast reduction, tummy tucks," she says.
选项
A、Local African clients helped keep her business going.
B、Her clients were unable to pay her the money.
C、Her business was affected by the global financial crisis.
D、She still had as many European clients as before.
答案
D
解析
录音提到,“外科医生和旅行探险”受全球金融危机冲击,尤其是很多客户要借钱才支付得起;然而,尽管美国和欧元区经济可能衰退,Melvill从一些非洲国家的经济增长中获益。因此,A“非洲当地客户使她的生意得以继续”、B“客户无法付钱给她”和C“她的业务受全球金融危机影响”都与原文相符,D“她像以前一样仍然有许多欧洲客户”是错误的,为本题答案。
