Questions 19 to 22 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
19. What's the main purpose of the man's visit?
参考答案：
正确答案：C
解析：寒暄之后女士切入正题：问男士想如何进行磋商，男士回答时提及目前的合同即将到期，讨论新的合同，综合关键词得出的答案是C。
20. What can we learn about the relationship between the two speakers?
正确答案：A
解析：选项为他们之间的关系，根据前一题中提到过的男士所说“目前的合同即将到期”及后文明示的“过去几年合作很好”，得出答案为A。B错在first，C错在long-term(这是此行目的之一，不是现实)
21. What's the woman's principle in foreign trade based on?
正确答案：B
解析：答案是直接听到的原词。C中的daily necessities是对原文needed goods的误解。
22. What new practice has been adopted by the woman's company?
正确答案：D
解析：选项为某公司的做法。D中的accepts delayed payment是原文adopt payment by installments的同义表达。
