Inter-Office Memo: Q3 Update & System Maintenance
To: All Staff
From: IT Department
Date: October 26, 2023
Subject: Important Information Regarding Upcoming System Maintenance and Software Update
Dear Team,
This notice serves to inform all personnel about essential system maintenance scheduled for the upcoming weekend, November 4th-5th. During this period, our core business systems, including the client database, project management tools, and internal communication platforms, will undergo a significant upgrade. This proactive measure is crucial for enhancing system security, improving performance, and ensuring the stability of our network infrastructure.
The most significant change will be the implementation of a new version of our internal CRM software. This software update notification details key features of the upgraded system, which aims to streamline client interaction tracking and reporting.
Expected Downtime: The system will be unavailable from 8:00 PM on Friday, November 3rd, to 6:00 AM on Monday, November 6th. We understand that this may cause some inconvenience, and we appreciate your understanding and cooperation as we work to improve our technological resources. Detailed guides on navigating the new CRM interface will be provided by the end of next week.
Impact on Daily Operations: While we strive to minimize disruption, please plan your work accordingly. Ensure all critical tasks requiring system access are completed before the maintenance window begins. Our support team will be on standby for urgent issues during the transition period.
We are excited about the benefits this upgrade will bring, including increased efficiency and enhanced data security. Thank you for your continued dedication.
Sincerely,
The IT Department

📖 지문해석 — 이 안내문은 11월 4-5주말에 예정된 필수 시스템 점검에 대해 모든 직원에게 알리기 위한 것입니다. 이 기간 동안 고객 데이터베이스, 프로젝트 관리 도구, 내부 커뮤니케이션 플랫폼을 포함한 핵심 비즈니스 시스템이 중요한 업그레이드를 거칠 것입니다.
📝 정답이유 — 정답은 "To inform employees about a software update"입니다. 지문은 "essential system maintenance scheduled for the upcoming weekend, November 4th-5th"와 "our core business systems... will undergo a significant upgrade"라고 명시하여 시스템 유지보수와 업그레이드에 대한 정보를 직원들에게 전달하는 것이 주 목적임을 분명히 하고 있습니다.
💡 실전팁 — Part 7에서 글의 '주요 목적(main purpose)'을 묻는 문제는 주로 첫 문장이나 마지막 문장에 힌트가 숨어 있습니다. 이 문제의 경우, 첫 문장인 'This notice serves to inform...'가 핵심 목적을 직접적으로 제시하고 있습니다.
📊 오답분석 —
X) To announce a new product launch — 본문에는 새로운 제품 출시에 대한 언급이 전혀 없습니다.
X) To review company performance — 회사의 성과 검토는 이 글의 초점이 아닙니다.
X) To advertise an upcoming event — 시스템 점검은 이벤트 광고와는 다릅니다.
