M: Hello, Jane.
W: Hello, Paul.
M: Please come in. I’m just getting ready to go home. Susan is expecting me for dinner. I want it to be on time for a change.
W: Look, I’m terribly sorry to drop in at this time on Friday, Paul. But it is rather important.
M: That’s OK. What’s the problem?
W: Well, Paul, I won’t keep you long. You see there is a problem with the exchange rates. The Indian rupee has taken a fall on the foreign exchange market. You see there’s being a sharp increase in India’s balance of payment deficit.
M: I see. That’s serious, isn’t it?
W: Well, as you know, there have been reports of unrest in India, and the prospects for the rupee look pretty gloomy.
M: And that’s going to affect us, as if we didn’t have enough problems on our hands.
W: So I thought it would be wise to take out forward exchange cover to protect our position on the outstanding contracts.
M: Just a minute. Forward exchange cover—now what does that mean exactly?
W: Well, it means that JL Motors enters into a commitment to sell Indian rupees at the present rate.
M: I see. And how would that benefit us?
W: Well, JL Motors won’t lose out if the Indian rupee falls further.
M: What will it cost, Jane?
W: A small percentage, about 1%. And that can be built into the price of the bike.
M: Well, I don’t suppose there’s much choice. All right, Jane. Let’s put it into action.
1.What do we learn about the man’s daily life?
2.Why did the woman come to see the man?
3.What makes the woman worry about the Indian rupee?
4.What can we infer from the conversation?

选项 A、JL Motors is a company with the business of bicycle sales.
B、The Indian rupee has been steady on the foreign exchange market.
C、JL Motors is an Indian company with a promising prospect.
D、The man doesn’t agree to the woman’s proposal.

答案A

解析 在对话的最后,当男士问女士取出远期外汇储备对JL Motors公司的影响时,女士说只会损失大约百分之一,而这部分可以通过提高自行车的价格去弥补。由此可推测,JL Motors公司是一家有自行车销售业务的公司,故选项A为正确答案。选项C对话中未提及;选项B、D与对话内容相悖,故均可排除。
