练习 1
Trey is experiencing problems. What solution does he suggest in his e-mail?
Trey is experiencing problems. What solution does he suggest in his e-mail?
Excerpt: Perhaps we could borrow that intern, Edward Moon, for a week or two - at least until things quiet down a bit?
This is incorrect. To hire staff means to employ new people to work for a company. Trey doesn't ask Luna to employ any more people.
This is the correct answer. Trey asks to "borrow" Edward "for a week or two" meaning he wants Edward to come and help them. He asks Luna for "an extra pair of hands" which means another person to help. The expression "we need an extra pair of hands" shares a similar meaning with "we need a hand" or "we need more help".
This is incorrect. Although Trey writes that many complaints are related to the Delavigne website, he does not suggest re-designing it as a solution to the problem.
This is incorrect. To streamline a department means to make it more efficient, usually by losing staff or reducing costs in another way. Having fewer team members would not help Trey in his current situation.
