TOEIC Listening Part 3 — Questão

Texto

Man: Alright everyone, thanks for coming. The main agenda today is to nail down the final timeline for Project Chimera. We're looking at an aggressive launch, so confirming these dates is critical.
Woman 1: I've reviewed the latest draft. Most of the milestones seem achievable, but the user testing phase might need an extra week, especially considering the complexity of the new features.
Man: I understand the concern. What if we allocate more resources to testing or perhaps stagger the feature rollout? We want to ensure a smooth launch, not a rushed one.
Woman 2: Speaking of smooth operations, have we finalized the requirements for the remote team's video conferencing setup? Ensuring seamless collaboration is key, given that half the development team is offshore.
Man: Good point, Sarah. I'll follow up with IT this afternoon to confirm the specs for the video conferencing setup. Let's tentatively push the user testing completion date back by three days, but I want weekly check-ins on progress after that.
Woman 1: That sounds like a reasonable compromise. I'll update the project plan to reflect that shorter testing window and revised completion date.

📖 지문해석 — 남자는 Project Chimera의 최종 일정 확정 회의를 소집했습니다. 출시가 임박했기 때문에 날짜 확정이 중요합니다. 여자는 새 기능의 복잡성을 고려할 때 사용자 테스트 단계에 일주일이 더 필요할 수 있다고 언급합니다. 남자는 이러한 우려를 이해하며, 테스트에 더 많은 자원을 할당하거나 기능 출시를 순차적으로 진행하는 방안을 제안합니다.
📝 정답이유 — 정답은 "It requires more time due to feature complexity."입니다. 여자 1이 "the user testing phase might need an extra week, especially considering the complexity of the new features."라고 명확히 말하며 사용자 테스트 단계가 추가 시간이 필요한 이유를 '새로운 기능의 복잡성' 때문이라고 설명합니다.
💡 실전팁 — Part 3에서는 인물의 감정이나 의견을 묻는 질문이 자주 나옵니다. 발화자의 직접적인 언급("I've reviewed...", "I understand...") 뒤에 나오는 내용에 주목하여 핵심 이유를 파악하세요.
📊 오답분석 — X) The offshore team is unavailable for testing. — 본문에서 팀의 가용성에 대한 언급은 전혀 없습니다. X) Budget constraints limit the duration. — 예산 제약에 대한 정보는 없으며, 비용보다는 시간 부족이 논의의 중심입니다. X) The deadline has been moved up unexpectedly. — 마감일이 갑자기 앞당겨졌다는 내용은 없으며, 기존 일정을 맞추기 위한 논의입니다.

📖 文章翻譯 — 男：各位，謝謝大家今天來。今天的首要議程是確定「奇美拉計畫」的最終時程。我們預計會積極推出，因此確認這些日期至關重要。
女1：我看過最新草稿了。大多數的里程碑看起來都可行，但使用者測試階段可能需要額外一週，特別是考慮到新功能的複雜性。
男：我理解您的擔憂。那我們是否分配更多資源給測試，或者分階段推出功能呢？我們希望確保順利推出，而不是倉促行事。
女2：說到順暢運作，
📝 答案解析 — 正確答案是「It requires more time due to feature complexity.」。女聲 afferma (Woman 1) 明確提到：「但使用者測試階段可能需要額外一週，特別是考慮到新功能的複雜性。」(the user testing phase might need an extra week, especially considering the complexity of the new features.)。這裡的 "complexity of the new features" 直接對應選項中的 "feature complexity"，並解釋了為何需要額外時間。
💡 應試技巧 — 聽到對某個階段「需要額外時間」的說明時，立刻聯想該階段或相關項目（如本題的新功能）的原因，並預期這會是關鍵的考點。
📊 錯誤選項分析 — X) The offshore team is unavailable for testing. — 文章中未提及離岸團隊的可用性問題。
X) Budget constraints limit the duration. — 文章中未提及預算限制是造成時程延誤的原因。
X) The deadline has been moved up unexpectedly. — 文章中提到的是「aggressive launch」（積極推進推出），但並未說明截止日期突然提前。

📝 Why this answer — The correct answer is "It requires more time due to feature complexity." Woman 1 clearly states in the passage, "the user testing phase might need an extra week, especially considering the complexity of the new features." She indicates that the reason for the extra time needed in the user testing phase is the "complexity of the new features."
💡 Test-day tip — In Part 3, questions asking about the speaker's feelings or opinions frequently appear. Pay attention to the content following the speaker's direct statements ("I've reviewed...", "I understand...") to capture the core reason.
📊 Wrong-option analysis — X) The offshore team is unavailable for testing. — There is no mention of the team's availability in the passage. X) Budget constraints limit the duration. — No information about budget limitations is provided; the lack of time is the focus of the discussion, not cost.
