Subject: Application for Software Developer Position

Dear Hiring Manager,

I am writing to express my keen interest in the Software Developer position advertised on LinkedIn. With over five years of experience in full-stack development and a proven track record of delivering high-quality code, I am confident that I possess the skills and qualifications necessary to excel in this role.

My background includes extensive work with Java, Python, and JavaScript, as well as experience with cloud platforms like AWS and Azure. I am particularly drawn to GlobalCorp's innovative work in the fintech sector and believe my expertise aligns well with your company's goals.

I have attached my resume for your review and welcome the opportunity to discuss my application further. Please note that I will require a brief leave of absence in three months for a personal matter requiring international travel; however, my passport renewal process is already expedited and should not cause any disruption.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,
Anya Sharma

해설

📖 지문해석 — Anya Sharma 씨가 Global Corp. 인사팀에 보낸 이메일은 소프트웨어 개발자 직책에 대한 지원 의사를 밝히고 있습니다. 하지만 본문에는 다른 내용이 언급되어 있으며, 이는 토익 파트 7에서 흔히 볼 수 있는 함정입니다.
📝 정답이유 — 정답은 "A personal matter requiring international travel"입니다. 이메일 본문에는 지원자의 기술과 경험에 대한 내용만 있지만, 질문은 Sharma 씨가 "휴가(leave of absence)"를 요청하는 이유를 묻고 있으며, 이는 질문 자체에만 명시되어 있습니다. 일반적으로 이러한 개인적인 사유는 회신 이메일이나 비공식적인 소통에서 언급될 가능성이 높습니다.
💡 실전팁 — 파트 7 '내용 불일치' 또는 '추론' 문제에서 질문이 지문 본문에 직접적으로 드러나지 않는 정보를 묻는 경우, 질문 자체의 단서(여기서는 'leave of absence'라는 키워드)를 활용하여 답을 추론해야 합니다.
📊 오답분석 —
X) To attend a conference on cloud platforms — 지문에 클라우드 플랫폼에 대한 언급이 있지만, 이것이 휴가 사유라는 증거는 없습니다.
X) To renew her passport and travel documents — 여권 갱신이나 여행 서류 관련 내용은 지문이나 질문 어디에도 언급되지 않았습니다.
X) To complete a technical assessment — 기술 평가는 지원 과정의 일부일 수 있으나, 휴가를 내야 하는 사유로는 직접적으로 연결되지 않습니다.
