问题  
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、To take him to dinner.
B、To talk about a budget plan.
C、To discuss an urgent problem.
D、To pass on an important message.

答案B

解析 对话中,当男士说自己正准备下班回家吃晚饭时,女士表示很抱歉在周五的这个时候来访,但是事情非常重要。后来与男士讨论了汇率出问题的事情。由此可知,女士来找男士是为了讨论一件紧急的事情。故选项B为正确答案。其他三项都与对话内容不符,都应排除。
