Conversation Two
听力原文
M: In this episode of Money Talks, (5) [our guest is Molly Sanders, a university student and a successful young entrepreneur.] Molly, tell us about your business.
W: Well, I sell specialty clothes through a website, mainly for women who have trouble finding suitable clothes in main street shops because of their height or weight, but I do some men’s clothes, too.
M: How did you get started in this business at such a young age? Are you studying fashion design?
W: Actually, I’m majoring in finance, but I’ve always loved clothes, and I started making my own at 14.
M: Did you have any sort of training in design or sewing, or was it a natural ability?
W: I’d have to say no to both. No one taught me to make clothes. (6) [And most of the things I made at first were disasters.]
M: Why did you persevere? I think most people would give up if they kept failing, especially at that age.
W: (7) [I kept on out of necessity. As you can see, I’m very tall and I couldn’t find clothes that fit me in ordinary shops.] So I kept trying and developed my skills over time.
M: Well, my notes say you earned $50,000 in profits last year, an extraordinary amount for a 20-year-old student. How did that happen? Did you see a gap in the market and decide to fill it?
W: No, when I started university, some classmates complimented my clothes, and when I said I made them myself, other tall women started asking if I would make theirs, and I did. And before I knew it, I was an entrepreneur.
M: So what are your plans for the future? Do you intend to open a physical store?
W: No, I’ll keep things online to keep costs down, (8) [but I will add more clothes for children, both girls and boys, and possibly even for infants. And I hope to add to my range of designs for men.]
5. What do we learn about the woman?(关于女士,我们可以知道什么?)
解析:D。在录音开头男士提到,今天的嘉宾是莫莉·桑德斯,她是一名大学生,也是一位成功的年轻企业家(a successful young entrepreneur)。D项与此内容相符,故为正确答案。
错项排除:A项利用录音中的website和design进行干扰,但录音中是说女士通过网站卖衣服,以及男士询问女士是否学过服装设计,并不是说女士是网站设计师,故A项排除。录音开头虽然提到莫莉·桑德斯是一名大学生(a university student),但graduate在录音中无依据,故B项排除。C项利用录音中的main street shops进行干扰,但录音中是说女士服务的是那些因为身高或体重而在大街上的店铺里找不到合适衣服的女性,并不是说女士是大街上一家店铺的老板,而且通过录音可知女士只经营了网店,没有开实体店,故C项排除。
