W: Jack, sit down and listen. This is important. We’ll have to tackle the problems of exporting step by step. And the first move is to get an up-to-date picture of where we stand now.
M: Why don’t we just concentrate on expanding here at home?
W: Of course, we should hold on to our position here. But you must admit the market here is limited.
M: Yes, but it’s safe. The government keeps out foreigners with import controls, though 1 must admit I feel sure we could hold our own against foreig bikes.
W: I agree. That’s why I’m suggesting exporting, because I feel we can compete with the best of them.
M: What you are really saying is that we’d make more profit by selling bikes abroad, where we have a cost advantage and can charge higher prices.
W: Exactly.
M: But, wait a minute. Packaging, shipping, financing, etc. will push up our costs and we could end up no better off, maybe worse off.
W: OK. Now there are extra costs involved. But if we do it right, they can be built into the price of the bike and we can still be competitive.
M: How sure are you about our chances of success in the foreign market?
W: Well, that’s the sticky one. It’s going to need a lot of research. I’m hoping to get your help. Well, come on, Jack. Is it worth it, or not?
M: There’ll be a lot of problems.
W: Nothing we can’t handle.
M: Um…I’m not that hopeful. But, yes, I think we should go ahead with a feasibility study.
W: Marvelous, Jack. I was hoping you’d be on my side.

答案
A
解析
在对话中,男士指出,女士的意思是通过往国外销售自行车可以赚取更多的利润,因为他们有成本优势,可以将价格定得更高。女士表示同意。但是男士接着又说,包装、运货、筹措资金等将会让他们的出口成本增加,最后的情况可能不会更好,甚至会更糟。也就是说,男士担心额外的成本增加会耗尽他们的产品在国外市场的销售利润,故A项正确。其他三项对话中均未提及,都可排除。
