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、They are all the man’s friends.
B、They work five days a week.
C、They are paid by the hour.
D、They all enjoy gambling.
答案
A
解析
选项中的work five days a week和paid by the hour提示,They可能指的是在某处打工的人,本题考查有关这些人的相关信息。女士问男士有没有雇用员工,男士回答有几个和他一样喜欢骑自行车的朋友(friends)一周有几天来店里帮忙,故答案为A)。对话中问答处常设题,其中的一问一答往往就对应题目的问题和答案,故听到对话中出现一方提问时,一定要留意另一方对其的回答。
