W: We are quite interested in your nylon T-shirt. But I am afraid that your prices are much too high.
M: Not in the least. I should say that they are reasonable and quite in line with the market.
W: It’s just for the market reason that I suggest you make a reduction in price. Otherwise we can hardly go on with our discussion.
M: A reduction in price? I am afraid it’s out of the question.
W: Well,[10]we have made a market survey recently. More and more people are tired of wearing nylon T-shirts. They are more interested in cotton wear.
M: That’s true. But as the prices are already rather low, we can’t reduce much.
W: How much then?
M: We can reduce them by 5%.
W: 5%? When I say your prices are much too high, I don’t mean they are higher merely by 5 or 6 percent.
M: How much do you mean then? Can you give me a rough idea?
W: If you ask me, I would say that you should hold a reduction of about 12 percent.
M: You must be kidding. How is it possible to expect us to make a reduction to such an extent?
W: I won’t let you sell at a loss. If your prices are reasonable, I might place a large order. 5,000 dozen?
M: Er... Let’s put it this way. If you can order 8,000 dozen, I think we can make a reduction of 12 percent.
W: OK. We have come to an agreement on price at long last.
9. What is the probable relationship between the two speakers?
10. What can we learn from the market survey?
11. What agreement do the speakers come to at last?
