W: Now, could you tell me where the idea for the business first came from?
M: Well, the original shop was opened by a retired printer by the name of Gruby. Mr. Gruby, being left-handed himself, thought of the idea to trying promote a few products for lefthanders.
W: And how did he then go about actually setting up the business?
M: Well, he looked for any left-handed products that might already be on the market, which were very few, and then contacted the manufacturers with the idea of having products produced for him, mainly in the scissor range to start with.
W: Right. So you do commission some part of your stock.
M: Yes, very much so. About 75 percent of our stock is specially made for us.
W: And the rest of it?
M: Hmm, the rest of it now, some 25, 30 years after Mr. Gruby’s initial efforts, there are more left-handed products actually on the market. Manufacturers are now beginning to see that there is a market for left-handed products.
W: And what’s the range of your stock?
M: The range consists of a variety of scissors, from children scissors to scissors for tailors, hairdressers, etc. We also have a large range of kitchenware.
W: What’s the competition like? Do you have quite a lot of competition?
M: There are other people in the business now as specialists, but only as mail order outlets. But we have a shop here in central London plus a mail order outlet. And we are without any doubt the largest supplier of left-handed items.

3. What can we know about the business of left-handed products?
4. What does the man say about other people in his line of business?

选项 A、It is the man who is talking that set up the business.
B、There was more competition in the business about 30 years ago.
C、There are more left-handed products on the market now.
D、People in the business should run stores to sell products.

答案C

解析 在对话中男士提到,格鲁比先生首创这一行业的二三十年后,现在市场上其实有了更多的供左撇子使用的产品,生产商现在开始看到供左撇子使用的产品有市场了。由此可知,选项C为正确答案,同时排除选项B。创立这门生意的是格鲁比先生,并非说话的男士,排除选项A。在对话的最后,男士说现在也有一些人专门从事这一行业,但是都只有邮购商店,故选项D是错误的,也应排除。
