TOEIC Listening Part 4 — Soalan
Petikan
Hello everyone, and thank you for tuning in. We have some significant news to share regarding our flagship downtown store. After many wonderful years serving this community, we've made the difficult decision to close our downtown location permanently. This decision was not made lightly, but it is necessary as we restructure our operations. To express our gratitude for your unwavering support, we will be holding a massive store closing sale, starting this Friday. Every item in the store will be available at unprecedented discounts, up to 70% off the original retail price. This is truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to acquire high-quality merchandise at astonishingly low prices. We encourage you to come early, as stock is limited and will not be replenished. Furthermore, the preparation for this event has highlighted areas where our team could benefit from enhanced customer service protocols. Consequently, we are also accelerating our new employee training program to ensure our staff at other locations are exceptionally prepared to serve you better. The sale runs for two weeks, or until all inventory is depleted. We thank you once again for your patronage and hope to see you during this final sale event.

Penjelasan
📖 Terjemahan Petikan — Hai semua, dan terima kasih kerana sudi mendengar. Kami mempunyai berita penting untuk dikongsikan mengenai kedai utama kami di pusat bandar. Selepas bertahun-tahun berkhidmat dengan baik kepada komuniti ini, kami telah membuat keputusan sukar untuk menutup lokasi pusat bandar kami secara kekal. Keputusan ini tidak dibuat dengan mudah, tetapi ia adalah perlu kerana kami sedang menstruktur semula operasi kami. Untuk menyatakan rasa terima kasih kami atas sokongan anda yang tidak berbelah bahagi, kami akan mengadakan jualan penutup kedai yang besar-besaran, bermula Jumaat ini. Setiap barangan di kedai akan ditawarkan pada diskaun yang belum pernah berlaku sebelum ini, sehingga 70% daripada harga runcit asal.
📝 Sebab Jawapan Ini — Jawapan yang betul ialah "Next Friday" (Jumaat hadapan). Petikan itu secara jelas menyatakan "starting this Friday", yang bermaksud Jumaat yang akan datang dalam konteks ini. Ini sepadan dengan pilihan "Next Friday".
💡 Petua Hari Ujian — Dalam Bahagian 4, soalan mengenai 'tarikh' daripada pengumuman atau notis kerap muncul. Penting untuk mendengar dengan teliti ungkapan masa seperti 'today', 'tomorrow', 'this week', 'next month'.
📊 Analisis Pilihan Salah — X) Immediately — Tiada disebut bahawa jualan akan bermula serta-merta. X) At the end of the month — Tiada maklumat menyatakan jualan akan bermula pada akhir bulan ini. X) When inventory is depleted — Tiada sebutan bahawa jualan akan diteruskan sehingga stok habis.
