Conversation One
W:Good evening, and welcome to this week's business world. The program for and about business people. Tonight we have Mr. Steven Kayne, who has just taken over and established bicycle shop. Tell us, Mr. Kayne, what made you want to run your own store ?
M: Well, I always loved racing bikes and fixing them. When I was working full-time as a salesman for a big company, I seldom had time to enjoy my hobby. I knew then that as soon as I had enough money to get my own business going, I'll do it. I had my heart set on it and I didn't let anything stand in my way. When I went down to the bank and got a business loan, I knew I'd love being my own boss. Now my time is my own. I open the store when I want and leave when I want.
W:You mean you don't keep regular hours ?
M: Well, the sign on my store says the hours are ten to six, but if business is slower than usual, I can just lock up and take off early.A. Hosting an evening TV program
B. Lecturing on business management.
C. Having her bicycle repaired
D. Conducting a market survey.

Conversation Two
W: Well, the main activities in the region were historically steel and paper processing, I think.
M: Yes, but I'm not quite sure about the status of those industries now. Could you tell us something about that ?
W: Yes, of course. In fact, they are less significant, but steel-related manufacturing still accounts for 44% of industrial activity. So it's still very important. In fact, 80% of Spain's machine tools are from the Basque country. As for paper processing, there's still a little. But it's no longer what it once was in the region. So, is that clear ?
M: Yes, thanks.
W: Now, to get back to what I was saying, there's a lot of unemployment as well as geographical problems in the region.
M: Sorry, Victoria. What do you mean by geographical problems ?
W: Well, what I mean is the area is very hilly, mountainous in parts. So there used to be transport problems, now tho
A. It has gradually given way to service industry.
B. It remains a major part of industrial activity.
C. It has a history as long as paper processing.
