24、 can ask the international operator to help you. This is more expensive and takes more time, but it may be helpful if you want to speak to a particular person and no one else; in this case you should ask for a “person-to-person” call. Even more expensive is a reverse charge call where the person who

25、 receives the call pays. If the international line is busy, you can reserve a call; explain the number you want and the operator will call you back when the line is free. You can save money by calling outside office hours, e.g. early in the morning, late at night, and on Sundays. Remember that the t

26、ime may be different in the country you are calling. International time is based on GMT (Greenwich Mean Time); London is on GMT and Moscow, for example, is 3 hours ahead.

What can you do if the international

29、 line is engaged?A.Call back outside office hours.B.Make a “person-to-person” call.C.Book a call.答案:C解析 题目问题：如果国际线路繁忙，你该怎么办?原文第三段：If the international call is busy, you can reserve a call. 如果国际线路繁忙，你可以预订电话。选项C正是预订电话的意思。注意：book与reserve一样，有“预订，预留”的意思。故选C。3. When is it cheaper to make an international

30、call?A.12 a.m.B.6 p.m.C.11 p.m.答案:C解析 题目问题：什么时候打国际电话便宜些?原文第四段：You can save money by calling outside office hours，e.g. early in the morning, late at night, and on Sundays. 如果在办公以外的时间，比方说大清早、深夜和周日的时候拨打电话，你可以省些钱。选项C：晚间11点，也就是深夜，与原文相符。故选 C。4.

What should you do if you want to make a cheaper daytime call?A.ask the operatorB.change to DSTC.phone on Sunday答案:C解析 题干问题：如果你想在白天拔打电话，怎样做才能花费较少些?此题精析与25题相似，想省钱就在一大清早、深夜或是周日的时候拨打。选项C正好是在周日拔打电话的意思。故选CPART SIX Questions 29-40 Read the introduction below about a company training progr
