[单项选择]Officials at the McNeil Museum of International Art are announcing that the museum’s March exhibition is going to be something special. It’s all thanks to Mr. Antonio Garcia, one of the museum’s most active members and a man who has donated generously during fundralsers in the past.
His most recent contribution, however, has come not in the form of money but rather art itself. For most of his adult life, Mr. Garcia, a native of Colombia, has been collecting both traditional and contemporary works from around South America, including several hundred indigenous weavings from Bolivia. Now, he has gifted a significant portion of these, along with pieces from Peru and Ecuador, to the McNeil. The March exhibition will feature these new acquisitions.
Additionally, Tom McClosky, the museum’s general curator, has organized a unique experience for museum members. On February 26, a guided tour will be provided by Mr. Garcia, who will share details about the artwork as well as personal s

[单项选择]Attention, employees. As your supervisors should have informed you by now, the building’s electrical system will be undergoing renovations this weekend. The main purpose of the work is to replace all emergency circuit breakers with more modern versions to ensure the safety of all workers. In addition, the system will be upgraded to accommodate the increase in power necessitated by the opening of our new wing of offices next month. Supplementary electrical outlets will also be added in equipment rooms and near all high-use devices, such as printers and copiers.
Due to the nature of the work, power to the building will need to be switched off and on several times over the weekend. This could potentially damage any equipment connected to the power grid, so we are asking everyone to unplug all devices, from pencil sharpeners to computer monitors, before they leave for the day. Additionally, there will be no overtime work performed at our offices this weekend. Anyone who has applied fo

[单项选择]It has been just over a year now since the city of Talbot partnered with local firm Construction Waste Processing (CWP) to undertake a massive cleanup project in the warehouse district and other underutilized urban areas. CWP is nationally recognized as a leader in the field of industrial waste recycling, having developed and patented a method of reprocessing concrete, steel, synthetics, and other materials that result from building demolition.
Still, at the one-year mark the Talbot City Council called in an independent agency, Waste Management Watchdogs (WMW), to analyze CWP’s progress thus far. The results were released yesterday, and CWP earned a phenomenal score of 29 out of 30. Specifically, WMW judged their cleanup of demolished structures in the warehouse district as "excellent."
This comes as good news for the city council, for it means the unprecedented investment of $45 million in the cleanup was wisely spent. CWP will be on the job for another two years, after whic

[单项选择]From: Wendy Thackeray
To: Customer Service Department, One Star Telecom
Subject: My May phone statement
Customer Service:
I signed up for a cell phone plan with One Star this past March. According to the contract I signed, I was to be charged a base fee of $59 per month for unlimited Internet use and up to 600 minutes of call time. Anything over 600 minutes would be billed at a rate of 20 cents per minute. I chose this plan because I knew I would never surpass the regular minutes. However, in my May phone statement, it clearly shows that I only logged 479 minutes of call time during the month. Yet, the total in the "amount owed" column, before taxes, is listed as $69. Can you explain this discrepancy
I have heard horror stories from friends who receive service from other phone companies about sudden and unannounced rate hikes. I chose One Star specifically because I was led to believe this would never happen. I hope I wasn’t mistaken in that assumption.

Thank you for your email of introduction to your volunteer organization, American Hope. It sounds as if you and your associates are doing outstanding work in the field of poverty reduction, and 1 am honored that you have turned to my firm (150) your public relations needs.
Let me say immediately that, yes, we are interested in working with American Hope. I’m sure you are aware that we offer reduced rates on the services we provide to nonprofit groups like yours. Therefore, I know we can reach an agreement that will be (151) to both our organizations.

[单项选择]Dear Ms. Amanda Parker,
Thank you for your interest in attending the 63rd annual Southeast Regional Salesperson Conference, to be held July 12 through July 14 in the ballroom of the Inter-Regency Hotel. Enclosed is a registration form for you to fill out and send back to reserve a seat.
Please note that the registration cost has increased to $150 from last year’s fee of $120. The change is in response to a sharp rise in registrations last year. If we see the same percentage of increase this year, we will not have enough space to accommodate everyone, so it was felt that the higher fee would keep the number of registrants within reason.
The deadline for registration is June 15. Please have your form postmarked by that date to participate in regular registration. After June 15, an additional fee of $40 will be applied for expedited registration. And, as always, all registration fees include a non-refundable $50 deposit to protect against cancellation. By affixing your sign
A. To notify conference participants of a recent fee increase
B. To detail the policies pertaining to conference attendance
C. To report a problem with Ms. Parker’s registration status
D. To encourage conference members to register early

[单项选择]From: Stephanie Drugan
To: Amani Rois, General Contractor
Hi Amani,
As requested, I have done some research into the prices and styles of tile available for the shower walls and floor in the bathroom. For the walls, the best option seems to be a three-inch square ceramic tile, made by American Tile. It is sold by the distributor Thompson Tile Exchange in white at $3.50 per square foot. As for the grout that’s spread between the tiles, I’m not sure which color would go best with the white tile. Thompson offers a non-sanded grout in four colors: white, light gray, dark gray, and black. Since you know the customer better, which would you recommend
For the floor, I like the 12x12 marble-style porcelain product that Tile Co. makes. According to their website, I can get it for just $2.99 per square foot, directly from the manufacturer, which seems like a good deal. Let me know if I’m wrong.

[单项选择]From: Sue Yi
To: Carlton Cheevers
Subject: Inspection, D4 toaster
Carlton, I’m doing a product testing on the ToastMaster D4 Bread Toaster this week, and I’ve encountered a unit that gives me cause for concern. The product number is D4-230943-F, and I’ve found that when all four toaster slots are in use, the unit overheats to dangerous levels. Clearly, there is a problem with the temperature control apparatus, because according to the product specifications, the maximum heat yield should be well within safety limits.
I see here that an inspector from your department, Elisa Chow, signed off on this unit when it came through her station last week. I’d like for you to speak with Ms. Chow and find out how this defect managed to make it past her scrutiny. I’ve already talked to Marshall Lander, the product designer, and he feels this is probably an isolated incident. But we need to get to the root of the problem before we send these toasters out into the market.
