选项

答案(For three candidates) A: Have you heard that our company is going to choose a new venue? B: Yeah, what big news! There are many factors we should consider. C: Right, the first question for us to consider is the labour force. You know our company belongs to light industry, which is labour-intensive. A: Yeah, I share your view on that. Otherwise, it would be very difficult for us to recruit so many people within such a short time. I think we should also consider whether the transportation is convenient, because we should transport our products frequently. B: Oh, that’s a good point. We should also consider whether there are some suppliers nearby. If not, this will be a great cost for our company. C: Very good, I can’t agree with you more. What’s more, what troubles the re-location might cause? A: In my opinion, it will cost a lot to have a new building, so it will affect our financial situation. B: Yeah. I think it will incur a series of problems just like whether government authorizes our application, whether the present staff are willing to go to a strange place, and so on. C: Although it will cause many troubles, its advantage outweighs its disadvantage. For my part, I think it’s a good chance for company to explore new market. A: Yes, every coin has two sides. When it earns more benefits, we should adopt it. B: I agree with you. New location offers us enough space for mass production, which will improve productive efficiency. C: That’s to say, we can reduce cost to the minimum. Therefore, we can have a more competitive price than our rivals’. Follow-on questions - In my opinion, it will affect the site selection a lot, because cost control is always important to the development of a company. - Yes, I will. Actually, the needs of the company’s further development are the very reason why we should consider changing the address. - Yes, I think I will. A friendly and healthy community can be of great importance to the development of the company. / No, because we have no business with the community. - The result can be serious. For example, if the company is not conveniently located, there can be a risk of losing some potential clients. - Well, it depends on the nature of the company and its scope of business. Usually the location of competitors won’t have great effect on the site selection.
