题目12:二、阅读理解:阅读下面的短文，根据文章内容从A、B、C三个选项中选出一个最佳选项。 The terms of payment are important for both the seller and thebuyer. For the seller, the best terms would be full payment {A. at; B. in; C.on}cash at the time of sale. But the buyer would prefer to have the goodsbefore making payment. Importers and exporters are separated from each other by{A. thousands; B. a thousand; C. thousand}of miles. This adds to thedifficulties of {A. to reach; B. reaching; C. reached}an agreement of payment.However, exporters and importers usually meet each other half-way and agree topayment by a Letter of Credit. A letter of credit (L/C) is a banker’s guaranteethat payment will be made, if all the required shipping documents arepresented. * In this way, exporters receive a guarantee not only fromimporters, but also from a bank. * On {A. the other; B. other; C. another}hand,importers are given the guarantee that the bank will not make payment unlessall the shipping documents are presented. Nevertheless, the exporter canfurther require an {A. irrealizable; B. irrebuttable; C. irrevocable}letter ofcredit. That means the guarantee of payment cannot be cancelled either by theopening bank or the importer.
