W: Good evening, and welcome to this week’s “Business World,” the program for and about businesspeople. Tonight we have Mr. Steven Kane who has just taken over an established bicycle shop. Tell us, Mr. Kane, what made you want to run your own store?
M: Well, I’ve always loved racing bikes and fixing them. When I was working full-time as a salesman for a big company, I seldom had time to enjoy my hobby. I knew then that as soon as I had enough money to get my own business going, I’d do it. I had my heart set on it, and I didn’t let anything stand in my way. When I went down to the bank and got a business loan, I knew I’d love being my own boss. Now my time is my own. I open the store when I want and leave when I want.
W: You mean you don’t keep regular hours?
M: Well, the sign on my store says the hours are 10:00 to 6:00, but if business is slower than usual, I can just lock up and take off early.
W: Have you hired any employees to work with you yet?
M: Yeah, a couple of friends of mine who love biking as much as I do. They help me out a few days a week. It’s great because … we play cards or just sit around and talk when there’re no customers.
W: Thank you, Mr. Kane. We wish you success in your new business.
Questions 12 to 15 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
12. What is the woman doing?
13. What did Mr. Kane do before he took over the bicycle shop?
14. Why did the man take over a bicycle shop?
15. What do we learn about the people working in the shop?
选项
A、He wanted to be his own boss.
B、He didn’t want to be in too much debt.
C、He didn’t want to start from scratch.
D、He found it more profitable.
答案
A
解析
选项均以He开头,选项中的want(ed)to,be his own boss,start from scratch和profitable提示,本题可能考查男士做某种生意的原因或目的。女士问男士(Kane)为什么想自己经营自行车店,男士回答说,他原来做公司推销员时就想攒钱自己创业,接着又提到,当他去银行办理商业贷款时,他知道自己一直以来都想当自己的老板(love being…own boss),故答案为A)。
