Dear Mr. Perkins,

    We would like to introduce ourselves. Our company was organized only two years ago, but we are one of the largest boat companies in California. As you know, your son has bought a boat from us recently, and I think you know how pleased be is with our product. Also, John Webb, one of your son's friends, has bought a boat from us and, we understand, is very happy with his boat. We are always happy to know that our customers are satisfied. We are writing to you now because, as you know, your son has decided to buy a larger boat, and we need your signature on the loan (貸款) papers. The loan application has already been signed by Danny. As you will see, there is one form to fill out, and there are three contracts to sign. Danny’s 26-foot boat was returned to our San Pedro Dock yesterday, and we are pleased to say that the new 36-foot “Challenger” will be delivered in two weeks from today. It is being inspected by our manager right now. The auto-pilot (自動領航儀) has already been installed by our mechanic. It looks as though everything will be ready in time for delivery. All we need are the signed contracts from you.

   Thank you.

                                                           Tony Valention

 

56. The main aim of the letter Tony wrote to Mr. Perkins is to __________.

    A. tell him to sign the contracts                   B. thank him for buying a new boat

    C. tell about something of his company        D. ask him to pay for his boat right away

57. The underlined word “contracts” means ________.

    A. application forms from the buyers                  B. letters sent by the sellers

    C. formal agreements having the force of law      D. designs of a new product

58. From the passage we can see that the boat company __________.

    A. isn’t an old one                                     B. is a world-famous one

    C. is developing slowly                                 D. has to advise customers to buy its boats

56.A。見contracts所在的句子以及最后一句話。這是寫這封信的實質(zhì)。而其余部分主要是宣傳他們的公司，他們的服務等。這些都是為了讓客戶放心地購他們的貨。

57.C。該詞前面講到了Mr. Perkins的兒子決定向船舶公司買一艘大船；又根據(jù)contracts后面的sign(簽訂)以及隨后講的公司已做好交貨的準備，需要的只是簽訂了的contracts等等，可知它的意思是“合同”。

58.A。正文第二句講：他們的公司兩年前才成立。
