Message taken by: Nancy Johnson
Message for: Ryan Sherman
WHILE YOU WERE OUT...
Mr. Cavanaugh called.
Will call back at 5:00 p.m.
Message: The president is worried about the latest figures from our company’s efficiency report. On the phone, he made reference to the overhead costs, including miscellaneous expenses, which have increased significantly in recent months. The president is very concerned about this. His assessment is that since we began outsourcing to Phones on the Go, our overseas telecommunications contractor, our own productivity has dropped dramatically.
He wants to talk to you about conducting a company-wide survey on the possible causes, and he wants to discuss conducting an intensive study on the year’s fiscal outlook.
The word "outlook" in paragraph 2, line2 is closest in meaning to______.

选项 A、reference
B、insight
C、forecast
D、responsibility

答案C

解析 outlook表示对将来要发生的事的“展望”或“预料”,在短文中被fiscal修饰,表示对公司未来财政状况的展望,即“财政前景”。因此,和这个意思相近的C为正确答案。
