选项
A、questions
B、inquiries
C、problems
D、complaints
答案
B
解析
语义衔接题。本段是讲一些商业机构和政府部门提供的录音电话一般是解答人们比较关心的问题,即回答他们收到大量(a large volume of)咨询的问题。inquiry意为"咨询",如:Please file an inquiry about the lost shipment.(请把有关丢失货物的调查归档)。question意为"问题",虽然与inquiry意思相近,但在商务活动中,对什么事情不清楚的咨询应使用inquiry,而不是question;problem表示遇到麻烦的意思,文中没有任何线索表明客户遇到麻烦而给公司或政府机构打电话;complaint表示"抱怨,投诉"。
