Charles’ shop does NOT sell [br]
W: Well, Charles, I must say that your shop is pretty remarkable. [7]Urn, it’s basically a sweetshop, but you also do stationery, greeting cards, tobacco and fireworks...
M: And newspapers.
W: And newspapers. Ah. And apart from all that, you’ve got photocopiers...
M: That’s right.
W: And a fax machine.
M: Indeed.
W: Yes. How did... I mean, why the photocopiers?
M: Everything that’s happened in my shop has almost happened by accident. [9]But when I got into Clifton, I needed a photocopy one day and no one could tell me where to go. So it struck me that if I didn’t know where to go, other people were in the same situation, so that’s why I started it. And then I added on a facsimile machine because it seemed like a natural progression at the time. And all sorts of people use it.
W: Yes, who, what sort of people do use it?
M: [10] Um, a lot of professional people—surveyors, engineers—particularly people who need to send, plans. [8] Because in the past you could send messages via telex, but a telex can’t express a plan, whereas facsimile has that dimension, the added dimension.
W: Right. And do people send these fax messages abroad, or is it just to this country?
M: Well, it’s surprising because when I started, I thought I’d be sending things to London and maybe Birmingham, [9] but in fact, a high percentage of it is sent abroad, because it’s immediate, it’s very speedy.
选项
A、it is cheaper and faster than ordinary mail.
B、it is faster and not much more expensive than mail.
C、it can send things that could not be expressed by telex.
D、the Royal Mail could not reach places abroad.
答案
