Team,
I'm writing to provide an update on Project Alpha. Due to an unexpected complication with the integration of the new module, we anticipate a slight delay in our projected completion date. We're working diligently to resolve this, but it will likely push our timeline back by approximately one week. I will schedule a brief meeting later today to discuss revised milestones. Appreciate your understanding.
Best,
Michael Harrison

Michael,
Thanks for the immediate notification. Could you please send out an updated project schedule once you've had a chance to revise it? Also, will this impact the client demonstration scheduled for November 10th? It would be helpful to manage client expectations proactively.
Regards,
Sarah Chen

Sarah,
You're welcome. Yes, I'll circulate a revised schedule by end of day. Regarding the client demo, I believe we can still proceed as planned, but we may need to adjust the scope slightly for that specific presentation. I'll confirm after reviewing the latest progress metrics. Our main priority is to ensure the stability and functionality of the integrated module before full deployment.
Best,
Michael Harrison

📖 지문 번역
이메일은 Project Alpha 팀에게 보내는 상태 업데이트입니다. 새로운 모듈 통합에 예상치 못한 문제가 발생하여 완료 날짜가 약 1주일 정도 지연될 것으로 예상됩니다. 이 문제를 해결하기 위해 노력 중이며, 오늘 늦게 수정된 마일스톤을 논의하기 위한 짧은 회의를 잡을 예정입니다.
📝 정답 이유
Michael Harrison은 "unexpected complication with the integration of the new module" (새로운 모듈 통합의 예상치 못한 복잡성)이라는 문제가 발생했음을 언급하며, 이를 해결하고 "discuss revised milestones" (수정된 마일스톤을 논의)할 것이라고 말합니다. 이는 데모를 진행하기 전에 모듈의 안정성과 기능성을 확인하는 것이 최우선 과제임을 시사합니다.
💡 실전팁
Part 7에서는 이메일이나 편지와 같은 비즈니스 통신문에서 '문제 발생' 또는 '수정 필요'와 같은 키워드를 찾으면, 문제 해결이나 검토가 해당 내용의 우선순위임을 파악할 수 있습니다.
📊 오답분석
X) To completely reschedule the demonstration. — 데모 재조정에 대한 언급 없이, 완료 날짜의 지연과 마일스톤 논의만을 언급했습니다.
X) To assign a different team member to lead the presentation. — 발표를 이끌 다른 팀원에게 역할을 맡긴다는 내용은 지문에 전혀 언급되지 않았습니다.
X) To gather more client feedback before proceeding. — 클라이언트 피드백 수집에 대한 내용은 지문에 나오지 않았으며, 내부 문제 해결에 초점을 맞추고 있습니다.
