Picture this situation: you have bought a faulty item from a shop and you take it back to complain. You go directly to the shop assistant and tell them your problem. They say they cannot help you, 59 which makes you angrier to the point perhaps where you start insulting the poor shop assistant. This will do you no favours, 60 like getting any compensation
, or even your money back. If you go directly to the first person you see, you may be wasting your time as they may be powerless 61 to take any action .So the important lesson to be learnt is to make sure firstly that you are speaking to the relevant person, the one who has the authority to make decisions. 参考答案：ABCABC
