The correct answer is B, so mark your Answer Sheet like this:

1

The meeting will consider

A the company’s plan s for the future.

B the performance of the committee.

C suggested changes to a document.

【答案】C

【解析】题干考查会议关注的内容，C项“关注对文件的建议性修改”与题目中“用铅笔写下对提案的意见，这些意见会在下次委员会上得到讨论”表达意思相一致。因此答案选C。

2.

A Discounts will be offered to regular customers on orders of any size.

B Established customers will only qualify for price reductions on large orders.

C Customers can continue to get a discount if they place orders frequently.

【答案】B

【解析】邮件主要内容为：除非批量购买，否则老客户将不再享有折扣。B项“只有大批量购货，老客户才可享受低价”与题干表达意思相一致。该项中established customers对应邮件中regular customers，而on large orders对应in bulk。故正确答案为B项。

3.

Tom must contact the printers to

A change a design detail.

B make arrangements for collection.

C request a greater quantity.

【答案】A

【解析】留言中要求Tom安排在下一订单中让印刷工人把宣传册上3厘米的标识尺寸增加10％。在宣传册上改变标识的大小也即是在原有设计上做改动，因此选项A“改变设计细节”与留言内容大体一致。故答案选A。

4.

A Office staff will transfer to a new location on June 10.

B Warehouse workers should remove out-of-date stock by June 10.

C Customers have to wait until after June 10 for recent orders,

【答案】C

【解析】通知中指出：由于货物重置，已下订单在6月3日至6月10日期间不能发放货物。C项“顾客必须等到6月10日后才能得到近期订货”与通知内容相符，因此为正确答案。

5.

Trainees are asked to leave completed forms

A at the Information Desk.

B with the Training Manager.

C with the Reception staff.

【答案】C

【解析】通知内容为：可在咨询台索取问卷，完成后请交到接待处。因此对于题干“培训学员需将完成表格交到什么地方”，C项“交给接待人员”为正确答案。通知中咨询处只是领取表格的地方，因此A项“交到咨询处”应予以排除。故答案选C。
