Miss Parkinson became interested in her own business ______.
M: So, Miss Parkinson, you organize fitness training and beauty treatments for working women?
W: That’s right, Mr. Cruise.
M: Could you tell me how you first got the idea for the business?
W: Certainly. I suppose it all started about 5 years ago. I was on holiday and had a very bad skiing accident. I found that the only thing that helped the pain was massage and gentle exercise, like yoga or stretching exercises. So I used to go to therapists and classes after work.
M: Where did you work at that time?
W: In the training department of a media company.
M: I see.
W: But then I got a promotion to training manager. That meant I worked longer hours and was difficult to get to classes. I asked some of my teachers if they would come to my house instead, and most of them agreed. It was more expensive but I thought it was worth it. Lots of my friends loved the idea too. So I recommended people to them. That’s when I began to realize that maybe I could make a business out of it.
M: Did you give up your job then?
W: No, not immediately. The idea was too scary. I had a good job with a good salary, and starting my own business seemed a bit risky. So I just did it at a hobby really.
M: So why did you leave your job in the end?
W: Well, the decision was made for me really. My company decided to relocate to a different town. They offered me the choice of relocating with them or quite a large sum of money if I preferred to leave. I know an opportunity when I see it. So I took the money!
M: Good for you.
选项
A、She was busier than before.
B、It was more convenient.
C、She liked to exercise at home.
D、She was given a promotion.
答案
A
解析
女士因为升职当了培训经理,工作太忙,很难去上课,因此让老师来家里。故A“她比以前忙”正确。录音中没有提及B“更方便”和C“喜欢在家锻炼”;D“升职”导致了工作忙,而工作忙才是她让老师来家里上课的原因。
