Dear Ms. Evelyn Reed,

Thank you for choosing The Grand Plaza Hotel. This email confirms your reservation for a deluxe king room from October 15th to October 18th, 2023. We are delighted to have you with us.

Your booking includes complimentary breakfast and access to our fitness center. Regarding your arrival, please note that our hotel is located approximately 30 minutes from the international airport. We recommend arranging transportation in advance. While we do not offer direct airport shuttle services, many guests find taxis or ride-sharing services convenient. For those driving, parking is available for a nightly fee.

We also wanted to provide a helpful tip for your travel: familiarize yourself with the online airport check-in procedure before you arrive at the airport. This can significantly speed up your departure process and reduce waiting times. Most airlines offer this service 24 hours prior to departure.

Should you have any questions or require further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us at reservations@grandplazahotel.com or call us at 1-800-555-1234.

We look forward to welcoming you.

Sincerely,
The Grand Plaza Hotel Management

Dear Grand Plaza Hotel Management,

Thank you for the confirmation. I have a quick question regarding check-in. Are you able to facilitate an early check-in if my flight arrives around 10:00 AM on the 15th? My flight details are flight number UA456.

Also, could you clarify if there are any specific instructions for guests arriving via flight UA456 regarding the airport check-in procedure assistance? I want to ensure a smooth transition.

Best regards,
Evelyn Reed

解説

📖 本文の和訳: このメールは、10月15日から18日までデラックスキングルームの予約を確認するものです。ホテルは国際空港から約30分の距離にあり、交通手段の事前手配をお勧めしています。
📝 正解理由: 本文には「our hotel is located approximately 30 minutes from the international airport.」（当ホテルは国際空港から約30分の距離にあります。）と明記されています。「approximately 30 minutes」は「About a thirty-minute drive」と完全に一致します。
💡 実践的ヒント: Part 7で距離や時間を尋ねる問題では、本文に記載されている数字と単位を正確に見つけることが重要です。「approximately」、「about」、「around」などの単語は近似値を示すため、同義語を探す必要があります。
📊 不正解選択肢分析:
X) Less than fifteen minutes by taxi — タクシーで15分未満という時間は本文に言及されておらず、30分より短いという情報もありません。
X) Approximately one hour by shuttle — シャトルサービスについての言及はありますが、所要時間が1時間であるとは述べられていません。
X) It is located at the airport — ホテルが空港内にあるという内容は本文にありません。
