Question 6 is based on the conversation you have just heard.

W: I’ve worked in international trade all my life. My father did so too before me. So I guess you could say it runs in the family.

M: What products have you worked with?

W: All sorts, really. I’ve imported textiles, machinery, toys, solar panels, all kinds of things over the years. Trends and demand come and go. (5) [So, one needs to be very flexible to succeed in this industry.]

M: I see. What goods are you trading now?

W: I now import furniture from China into Italy and foods from Italy into China. (6) [I even use the same container. It’s a very efficient way of conducting trade.]

M: The same container? You mean you own a 40-foot cargo container?

W: Yeah, that’s right. (7)[ I have a warehouse in Genoa, Italy, and another in Shanghai.] I source mid-century modern furniture from different factories in China. It’s very good value for money. I collect it all in my warehouse and then dispatch it to my other warehouse in Italy. Over there I do the same, but with Italian foods instead of furniture, things like pasta, cheese, wine, chocolates. And I send all that to my warehouse in China in the same freight container I use for the furniture.

M: So, I presume you sell both lines of products wholesale in each respective country.

W: Of course. I possess a network of clients and partners in both countries. That’s the main benefit of having done this for so long. I’ve made great business contacts over time.

M: How many times do you ship?

W: I did 12 shipments last year, 18 this year, and I hope to grow to around 25 next year. That’s both ways, there and back again. Demand for authentic Italian food in China is growing rapidly. And similarly, sales of affordable yet stylish wooden furniture are also increasing in Italy. (8)[ Furniture is marginally more profitable, mostly because it enjoys lower customs duties. ]

6. What does the woman say is special about her way of doing trade? （女士说，她做贸易的方式有什么特别之处？）

解析：D。录音中男士问女士在做什么贸易，女士回答说在中国和意大利的贸易往返中，她会使用同一个集装箱，这是一种非常高效的贸易方式。题干中的way of doing trade对应录音中的way of conducting trade，special对应录音中的very efficient，D项的Using the same container属于原词复现，因此选D。

错项排除：录音中女士说她会从中国各工厂采购家具，只说到这些家具性价比很高，并未说从厂家直购有什么特别之处，故排除A项。B项利用录音中出现的ship进行干扰，但录音中说的是货运次数，并没有任何特殊之处，故排除B项。录音后面说女士在中国和意大利都有客户和合作伙伴，C项利用录音中出现的partners进行干扰，但录音中并没有说在世界许多地方，也没说这有何特别，故排除。
