Dear Team,
I'm writing to inform you that the launch of the new client management software will be delayed from its originally scheduled date of November 15th to December 1st. This decision was made after discussions with the development lead, Sarah Jenkins, regarding unexpected technical challenges encountered during the final testing phase. We are committed to delivering a robust and error-free product, and this additional time is crucial for ensuring its quality.
I understand this news may be disappointing, but I believe it's in the best interest of our clients and our company. Sarah will provide a more detailed report on the technical issues by end of day tomorrow. In the meantime, please adjust your individual timelines and communicate any potential impact on related tasks to your respective managers. We will schedule a team meeting later this week to discuss revised project milestones and address any concerns you may have.
Thank you for your understanding and continued hard work.
Best regards,
Michael Harrison
Project Manager

Hi Michael,
Thanks for informing the team. I've already started compiling the detailed report on the backend integration issues we've been facing. It's more complex than initially anticipated, particularly with the legacy system compatibility. I expect to have the full report ready for your review by tomorrow afternoon, well within your deadline.
I agree that prioritizing quality over a rushed launch is the right approach. I'll also start drafting some alternative strategies for mitigating future integration risks. Please let me know if there's anything else you need from me for the team meeting.
Regards,
Sarah Jenkins
Development Lead

Michael,
Thank you for the update. While a delay is never ideal, I appreciate the transparency and the focus on product quality. My team has already begun adjusting our marketing campaign schedule, and we can easily shift the launch communications to align with the new December 1st date. We'll also take this extra time to refine our user training materials.
I look forward to the team meeting to discuss the revised plan. Please keep us informed about the schedule for that.
Best,
Emily Chen
Marketing Manager

📖 지문 해석 — 이메일은 새로운 클라이언트 관리 소프트웨어 출시가 11월 15일에서 12월 1일로 연기되었음을 알립니다. 이 결정은 최종 테스트 단계에서 예상치 못한 기술적 문제에 대해 개발 책임자인 Sarah Jenkins와의 논의 후 내려졌습니다.
📝 정답 이유 — 질문은 기술적 문제에 대한 자세한 보고서를 누가 준비하는지 묻고 있습니다. 본문에는 "이 결정은 개발 책임자인 Sarah Jenkins와 ... 예상치 못한 기술적 문제에 대해 논의한 후 내려졌다"고 명시되어 있습니다. 이는 Sarah Jenkins가 이러한 문제에 대해 논의하고 있음을 시사하며, 따라서 보고서를 준비하는 책임이 그녀에게 있음을 나타냅니다.
💡 실전팁 — Part 7의 세부 정보 질문에서는 '누가', '무엇을', '언제' 등과 같은 의문사에 집중하세요. 답변은 일반적으로 지문에서 해당 질문 단어와 직접적으로 관련된 부분에 있습니다.
📊 오답분석
X) Michael Harrison — Michael Harrison은 이메일을 보낸 사람이지만, 기술적 문제 보고서 준비에 대한 직접적인 책임은 언급되지 않았습니다. 그는 결정을 통보하는 역할입니다.
X) Emily Chen — Emily Chen은 본문에 언급되지 않은 인물입니다.
X) The entire project team — 팀 전체가 책임이 있다고 볼 수도 있지만, 본문은 Sarah Jenkins를 특정 문제에 대한 논의의 중심으로 지목하고 있어 더 구체적인 답입니다.
