Questions 1-2 refer to the following online chat discussion.
Vincent Chou [10:22 a.m.]
Hi, Tina. I just want to touch base to check how this afternoon's presentation is coming along.
Tina Ralston [10:25 a.m.]
The presentation is complete, but we are having trouble with the overhead projector in the conference room. Ron is taking a look at it.
Vincent Chou [10:26 a.m.]
Hey, Ron. Is the projector in the conference room working yet?
Ron Lok [10:29 a.m.]
No, not yet. I'm sure it's one of the cables that isn't working. I've asked Ralph to pick up a replacement at Novatech.
Vincent Chou [10:32 a.m.]
What happens if he doesn't get back by 2 o'clock?
Tina Ralston [10:36 a.m.]
I have an idea. Why don't we talk about the ad budget first? I'm ready for that part.
Vincent Chou [10:38 a.m.]
Good point! Let's reverse the order originally planned. Tina will give the budget and financing talk first. I can follow up with the PowerPoint slides showing what newspapers, TV shows, and websites we think are best for promoting our client's products.

1. 文森最有可能在哪個產業工作？
(A) 電腦製造。
(B) 廣告。
(C) 租車。
(D) 零售。
理由
蒂娜於早上 10:36 說：「我們何不先討論廣告預算呢？」又根據早上 10:38，文森說：「然後我接著放映簡報，展示我們認為最能有效宣傳客戶產品的報紙、電視節目與網站。」得知，他們討論廣告預算，並與客戶討論最有效的宣傳方式，可推知說話者在廣告業工作，故 (B) 項應為正選。
2. 文森於早上 10:38 稱「好主意」是什麼意思？
(A) 他需要更多資訊。
(B) 他將指出女子的想法有個問題。
(C) 他贊同同事的想法。
(D) 他持保留態度。
理由
根據早上 10:38，文森說完「好主意！」之後，便接納了蒂娜的意見，調換報告的順序，故 (C) 項應為正選。
中文翻譯
周文森 [早上10:22]
嗨，蒂娜。我想了解一下今天下午的簡報進展如何。
蒂娜‧瑞爾斯頓 [早上10:25]
簡報已經完成，但會議室的吊掛式投影機有點問題，榮恩正在處理。
周文森 [早上10:26]
嘿，榮恩。會議室的投影機可以運作了嗎？
榮恩‧洛克 [早上10:29]
還不行。應該是其中一條纜線有問題，我已經請羅夫去新星科技廣場買一條來替換。
周文森 [早上10:32]
如果他沒能在兩點以前回來怎麼辦？
蒂娜‧瑞爾斯頓 [早上10:36]
我有個想法。我們何不先講廣告預算呢？這部分我已經準備好了。
周文森 [早上10:38]
好主意！我們來把計畫好的順序調換一下。蒂娜會先報告預算和財務部分，然後我接著放映簡報，展示我們認為最能有效宣傳客戶產品的報紙、電視節目與網站。
試題答案：1. B 2. C
