As the new sales director for a national computer firm, Alex Gordon was looking forward to his first meeting with the company’s district managers. Everyone arrived on time, and Alex’s presentation went extremely well. He decided to end the meeting with the conversation about the importance of the district managers to the company’s plans. "I believe we are going to continue to increase our share of the market," he began, "because of the quality of the people in this room. The district manager is the key to the success of the sales representatives in his district. He sets the term for everyone else. If he has ambitious goals and is willing to put in long hours, everyone in his unit will follow his example." When Alex was finished, he received polite applause, but hardly the warm response he had hoped for. Later he spoke with one of the senior managers. "Things were going so well until the end," Alex said disappointedly. "Obviously, I said the wrong thing." "Yes," the district manager replied. "Half of our managers are women. Most have worked their way up from sales representatives, and they are very proud of the role they’ve played in the company’s growth. They don’t care at all about political correctness. But they were definitely surprised and distressed to be referred to as ’he’ in your speech."
16. Who did Alex Gordon speak to at the first meeting?
17. What did Alex want to emphasize at the end of his presentation?
18. What do we learn about the audience at the meeting?
19. Why did Alex fail to receive the warm response he had hoped for?
选项
A、The support provided by the regular clients.
B、The initiative shown by the sales representatives.
C、The urgency of implementing the company’s plans.
D、The important part played by district managers.
答案
D
解析
短文提到,他决定在会议结束前谈一下区域经理对于公司计划的重要性。因此答案为D。注意D将原文的importance换成了important。A中的“常客”原文未提及;B“销售代表表现出的主动性”中的sales representatives虽在原文出现,但并未提及initiative问题:C“执行公司计划的迫切性”中的company’s plans虽出现,但并未提及执行问题,故均排除。
