问题 Letter One
Dear Sirs,
    Replying to your letter of April 28, concerning our account:
    We are sorry to say that we can not send you a check now. Since the opening of our season has been delayed through stormy weather, our customers are still wearing winter clothing instead of buying the spring and summer goods we ordered from you.
    We therefore ask you to do us a big favor. Will you take the enclosed note (票据 for sixty  days for the balance (余额 of the account? If we have any considerable amount of sales before  the note comes due (到期, you may be assured that we will send you a check on account.
                                                                                         Yours truly,
                                                                                               ***
Letter Two
Dear Sirs,
    We quite understand the situation which confront (面监) you. We would like to point out, however, that if you had taken the weather into consideration you would not have gambled on your ability to settle your account on time.
    You are such a valued customer that we are not going to insist on a full remittance (汇款) immediately. We suggest, instead, that you pay one half of the amount now. We will accept a note for sixty days for the balance.
    May we expect a check quickly?
                                                                                         Yours truly,
                                                                                               ***  
What’s the purpose of Letter One? To give explanations of the ______.

选项

答案delay in payment

解析 第一封信函用大量篇幅解释买方的困境,再根据Letter One最后一段第二句话 Will you take the enclosed note for sixty days for the balance of the account?可知,第一封信函的主要目的是买方想让卖方推迟付款。
