Dear Ms. Balaguer,
It was great meeting you at the trade fair in Belgrade last week. As we discussed, I’m interested in purchasing some of your souvenir products for my gift shop in Rockford, Illinois.
We haven’t been very pleased lately with the quality of merchandise from our current supplier. In fact, many of our customers have complained about the substandard items. I think that this is one of the reasons why our sales have recently declined.
Viewing your exhibit at the trade fair, I was impressed not only with the quality of the materials that you use, but also with the intricate detail in each design.
Enclosed with this letter is an order form that I downloaded from your Web site. Please let me know if you can produce the requested items for us. We are thinking of introducing your merchandise in time for the summer tourist season, when we get twice as many visitors to our location. If successful, we would be interested in developing a long-term business relationship with you.
If you have any questions, do not hesitate to send me an e-mail at octavio.guzman@ volaregifts.com. Thank you and we look forward to hearing from you soon.
Sincerely yours,
Octavio Guzman

Dear Mr. Guzman,
I appreciate your interest in Terrestrial Crafts. I’m very grateful for your order considering that I started this business just a few months ago. My exhibit at the trade fair was a success, and I received proposals from several companies during the event.
Since you ordered more than 50 different types of items from our catalog, it may take me longer than usual to finish making all of the items. However, I’ve recently hired five assistants to help me out with production, so I am confident we can send the items to you at the start of your busy season.
Attached is a scanned copy of the signed contract, as well as the invoice for your order. For any inquiries, please give me a call at 555-0099. You may also check out our Web site for information on new products at www.terrestrialcrafts.com for any future orders. Thank you very much.
Yours,
Francesca Balaguer
What will most likely happen in the summer?
选项 A、Some items will be delivered to a store.
B、Terrestrial Crafts will open a new branch in Illinois.
C、Volare Gift Shop will celebrate its first anniversary.
D、Some staff members will be given an orientation.
答案A
解析 本题需要将两封邮件的内容综合起来考虑才能得出正确答案。首先应该定位至与题干的核心线索happen in the summer相关的第一封邮件中。
第一封邮件中提到“We are thinking of introducing your merchandise in time for the summer tourist season…”，即正计划在夏季旅游旺季推出旅游产品，这是第一条线索。但是没有明确说明产品是否可以在夏季旅游旺季推出，所以应该特别注意邮件中和产品生产时间相关的内容。第二封邮件中提到“…it may take me longer than usual to finish making all of the items．However…I am confident we can send the items to you at the start of your busy season．”即虽然完成所有产品的生产会比平时用时长，但是会赶在旺季开始时将产品寄过去，这是第二条线索。将计划在夏季旅游旺季推出旅游产品的第一条线索和在旺季开始时将寄出产品的第二条线索综合起来考虑，可以推断出，产品将会在夏天被寄到商店。所以(A)Some items will be delivered to a store．是正确答案。
