练习 2
What is the meaning of the phrase, "The coffee and cookies will be available in my office from 2:15 until their supply is exhausted"?
What is the meaning of the phrase, "The coffee and cookies will be available in my office from 2:15 until their supply is exhausted"?
Since the cookies and coffee are already prepared, their supply is not dependent upon the endurance and stamina of the cook.
When the "supply" of something is "exhausted" it means that nothing remains. This is what Polly is expressing in her email.
It is a well known fact that cookies have neither vocal chords nor hands, usually necessary when begging or pleading. This choice is incorrect.
Since the subject of the sentence is the coffee and cookies, the hours of the office are not related to their being "exhausted".
练习 3
What is a "supplier's" job?
What is a "supplier's" job?
Excerpt: We had been debating...using only suppliers with a proven record on human rights working standards.
This is not the best choice. A business that works to "prove that human rights standards are being met" would typically be an international institution dedicated to the specific task of monitoring international human rights standards. This type of company would not be called a "supplier".
The expression "to beg" for something means to plead or ask for something. Example: the homeless man on the metro was begging for food.
This is the best definition of the term "supplier". Most companies do business with "suppliers" of one kind or another, and many companies are themselves "suppliers". Example: Our company had serious problems when our "supplier" of raw materials went bankrupt.
This is not the best choice. A business that "negotiates after-sales contracts and agreements" would be a company that specializes in contract negotiations and settlement of agreement terms. This type of company would not be called a "supplier".
Excerpt: We had been debating...using only suppliers with a proven record on human rights working standards.
