This is Guy Cooper from Centron Electronics here. I believe you rang for some advice about your alarm system, which isnt functioning properly. The message I got said you werent sure if you needed someone to come and sort it out, or if we could advise you over the phone. Well perhaps youd like to get back to me as soon as its convenient and tell me exactly what the problem is, and Ill see what I can do.pauseNineteenWoman: Well, as you say, Redlon has been supplying us for years but, quite honestly, two-thirds of the complaints we receive about our products are actually due to faults in components weve had from Redlon. So I talked to the Production Manager and he agreed that I should look at some alternatives. Future Worlds range is fine for us, and one of their customers who I spoke to recommended them highly, so thats why weve changed to using them.pauseTwentyWoman: The competitions getting tougher, and you know weve facing serious problems. We need to see more benefit from the undeniably hard work were putting in, and this means saying no to jobs which arent profitable. It would be much more beneficial to put all our efforts into winning higher-margin contracts. So the way I feel you can help most is by identifying the types of contracts which bring in the income we need in order to ensure our future.pauseTwenty-oneMan: John Woods here, phoning about the project we discussed earlier. Could you give me a ring so that we can talk about it a bit more? Ive done a few calculations and Im beginning to wonder whether its really a practical proposition. I still think the projects got potential, but there are significant additional costs which we hadnt taken into account. So could you get back to me as soon as you can, please?pauseTwenty-twoWoman: Hello, Sally here, from Pagwell Paints, returning your call. Im very sorry you arent happy with the latest consignment youve had from us. Its rather strange, because following your complaint about the last delivery, we did in fact take action to change the specifications in the way you suggested. So it isnt quite fair to say that we ignored your advice. I know its important to achieve the consistency that you require, but perhaps your recommendation wasnt exactly whats needed.pauseNow listen to the recording again.pauseThat is the end of Part Two.pausePart Two 分析：1分类：places/addresses/topics/opinions/reasons/purposes/function2重点：purpose/topics/function3解题方法：1）审题，找中心词2）先听后选3）注意力分配：首句方向；末句信息最多 but, however, so, therefore although, though, despite, in spite of4）注意陷阱:原词第四课时Part Two 分析：4 PURPOSE1) descriptive a. complaint: make, confirm product quality 产品质量 b. appointment/meeting/invitation: make, confirm 时间/事件 change 先道歉 推迟(postpone) 取消(cancel) 细节变动 confirm 先道谢 c. assistance/permission/advice: ask for, give 上级对下级是give，下级对上级是ask for d. satisfaction/appreciation/compliment/congratulation You deserve it. 是你应得的。/你活该。 e. make an enquire/ask for information/order/make a reservationSection Two.

Well, all your engineer basically did is plug it in and that was that. And now every time we switch it on, we get a warning message.
