2.【L2】
MAIL（-）ORDER
解析：本题定位词mail order companies。\\
3.【L3】
TURNOVER
解析：本题定位词a turnover of。根据题目信息，空格后面出现￡6m，所以空格中应该填写￡6m的别称。根据定位词，定位到录音对应的位置后，满足条件的信息为a turnover of。对应句为\\
4.【L4】
（A/ANY）STRUCTURE
解析：本题定位词have any structure。本题的对应句为“The cuIture was young and the working environment didn’t have any structure. ”，公司文化仍处于初级阶段，工作环境也没有任何模式可循。此处ANY写成A因其意思不变也算正确。
5.【L5】
CASH FLOW
解析：本题略有难度，首先句子较长，考生注意力可能会被分散，另外句子理解起来也有一定难度，考生可能还未翻译理解，就到下一题了。遇到这种题，第一遍听不懂，一定不要慌张，到第二遍听音的时候，继续跟进，找出答案。本题对应句为“If we need to buy some equipment or redecorate the sales office…usually the cash flow for that month-into account. ”，如果需要购买装备或者重新装修销售处，这些要记录在当月的开销之中。
6.【L6】

INVESTMENTS（PLANS）
解析：本题定位词rank our investments。对应句子\\
9.【L9】
STRATEGIC（TARGETS）/STRATEGY/STRATEGIES
解析：本题定位词是strategic and financial targets。因为题目中已经出现了financial，但是将原文 targets替换成了goals，所以难度中等。本题对应句为“Initially，we set out strategic and financial targets for the next three years，and……of those objectives we’ve met. ”，最初，我们制订了三年的战略和金融目标。值得一提的是，从语法角度考虑，题目填空处后面的and可以并列financial和strategic两个形容词，也可以并列strategic targets和financial goals两个短语，还可并列strategy/strategies和（financial）goals两个名词，故strategic targets/strategy/strategies 也可作为答案。考试当中填空处经常会出现两个甚至多个答案的情况，一般只要从语法角度出发得出的答案，都算正确的，但是建议考生最好既结合语法知识又按照原文单词来填写。此题建议考生优先填写strategic，strategic targets次之，strategies居三，strategy最后。
10.【L10】
OBJECTIVITY
解析：本题可以起到定位作用的对应句为“The value of bringing in outside expertise was that it gave us objectivity. ”，从外面邀请专家的价值就在于他们可以做出客观的评价。故推出答案为客观评价，客观性，即原文当中的objectivity。
