MEMO
To: All employees
From: Frank Palmer, CEO
Date: October 3
Subject: Budgeting for marketing
We will need annual revenues of more than $3,000,000 to support our marketing plan. Currently, an average of 5.0% of our total sales is used for marketing expenses. We need to increase that amount from this year. It is our belief that strong marketing will make us more competitive.
Our rival, Poliris Corp., has increased their revenues by investing more into marketing. However, we will not invest more in marketing activities if our revenues decrease. According to our analysts, we can anticipate at least a 3% rise next quarter.
Please send me any questions, comments or suggestions you might have about this matter by e-mail at palmer@nova.com.
To: Frank Palmer ＜palmer@nova.com＞
From: Karen Livingston ＜karen@nova.com＞, Human Relations Director
Date: October 4
Subject: Budgeting for marketing
Dear Frank Palmer,
I have a question about the memo you sent out. How often will revenues be tracked？ I believe that we need to keep track of how much revenue increase we will have as a result of this new marketing budget plan. We also need to consider our fixed costs such as salaried staff. I believe this plan will require more staff, so we should be considering those extra costs.
I'd like to go over these points, as well as other issues in relation to the staff, with you in person. Please let me know if you are available for a meeting on Friday. I'm meeting with a client in the morning, so the afternoon would be best.
Regards,
Karen Livingston
What is the purpose of the memo？
A．To set up a meeting to discuss the budget
B．To tell employees about money for marketing
C．To ask the employees for comments about the budget
D．To alert the employees about hiring more staff

听力原文：M We're going to have to hire some extra help for the Miller project.
W Oh？ But the Miller deadline isn't for another 2 months. That should be plenty of time to meet the deadline, don't you think？
M Mr. Miller's a great client, but he keeps adding to the scope of the project— little things here and there that add up over time. And of course he wants us to do all these things and still meet the original deadline. W Really？ I hadn't realized how serious a problem this was. If he's asking for changes that are outside the scope of the original contract, then we need to either renegotiate the contract, or bill him for these extras.
What does the man want？
A．A larger budget for a project
B．More information about a project
C．An extension of a project deadline
D．More people to help work on a project

M: Fine! And yourself？
W: Can't complain. Did you have time to look at my proposal？
M: No, not really. Can we go over it now？
W: Sure. I' ve been trying to come up with some new production and advertising strategies. First of all, if we want to stay competitive , we need to modernize our factory. New equipment should ' ye will that cost？
W: Sure. I' ye been trying to come up with some new production and advertising strategies. First of all, if we want to stay competitive, we need to modernize our factory. New equipment should' ye been installed long ago.
M: How much will that cost？
W: We have several options ranging from one hundred thousand dollars all the way up to half a million.
M: OK. We'll have to discuss these costs with finance.
W: We should also consider human resources. I've been talking to personnel as well as our staff at the factory.
M: And what's the picture？
W: We'll probably have to hire a couple of engineers to help us modernize the factory.
M: What about advertising？
W: Marketing has some interesting ideas for television commercials.
M: TV？ Isn't that a bit too expensive for us？ What's wrong with advertising in the papers, as usual？

M: Will we be able to afford all this？

听力原文：M: Right, let's get on to the marketing strategy.
W: Well, the marketing team believe that we should launch the product at the International Trade Fair and invite the media to a party on the evening of the 22nd.
M: The idea being that the media will be more favourable to our product if we give them some food and drinks before they write their stories.
W: Exactly! But to be honest, our product should really sell myself.
M: Well, a little marketing and promotion won't hurt. We'll be giving demonstrations at the trade fair, right？
W: Yes, all day long. It'll be a little repetitive, but ensure that everyone has a chance to see it in action.
M: Good. Did you get the budget accepted by the Board of Directors？
W: I did. We've got the full amount we asked for. That means we can go ahead with the newspaper and Internet ads.
M: And the ads in the specialist magazines. I think that those will get us the bulk of our orders.
W: I agree. They're very expensive, but they'll be worth it. I've also placed the order for the brochures. The printer will have them done by the end of next week.
M: That was a good idea of yours to have the brochure prepared even before we got the budget approved. If we hadn't done that, we'd never have been able to get the brochures printed in time.
W: Well, it was clear that we'd get the budget we asked for. The board wasn't going to risk having our product flop because of a lack of publicity, was it？
M: I wasn't entirely sure we'd get the full budget, to be honest. I've seen the board fail to put enough money into marketing and promotion before.
W: Really？ How could they be so short sighted!
M: It's amazing, isn't it？
W: Tell me about it over a drink. It's been a long day!
M: You're right. I'm really looking forward to the weekend.
W: Me, too. We've got everything ready to go. I might even come in late on Monday morning!
(23)
A．To celebrate the successful launch of the new product.
B．In order to create a favourable impression with the media.
C．Because everyone at the company has worked so hard on the project.
D．Because the Board of Directors has given the marketing department a large budget.
