TOEIC 聽力 Part 4 — 題目
段落
Good morning commuters. This is your traffic update for Friday, October 27th. We have some significant delays on the I-95 northbound due to an earlier accident near exit 15. Expect travel times to be at least 45 minutes longer than usual. Also, on Route 1, there is heavy congestion around the downtown area because of construction work. This construction is expected to continue through the weekend. For those heading to the financial district, consider using public transport. The subway lines are running on schedule. Finally, on a separate note, please remember that the company's annual shareholder meeting is scheduled for next Monday at 9 AM in the main conference room. All employees are welcome to attend. We expect a good turnout. Thank you for your attention.
題目
How are the subway lines performing?
選項
- A. They are delayed
- B. They are also affected by construction
- C. They have increased delays
- D. They are operating normally ✓
正確答案
D. They are operating normally
解析
📖 文章翻譯 — 各位通勤的旅客早安。這裡是您10月27日星期五的交通更新。由於在15號出口附近發生了先前事故,I-95北向車道出現了顯著的延誤。預計通勤時間將比平常至少長45分鐘。此外,由於施工,Route 1的市中心區域交通擁擠。此施工預計將持續整個週末。前往金融區的旅客,請考慮搭乘大眾運輸。地鐵線路均準時運行。最後,另外通知,請記得公司年度股東...
📝 答案解析 — 正確答案是 "They are operating normally"。文章中明確提到「The subway lines are running on schedule.」,這直接對應到「運行正常」。"running on schedule" 是關鍵聽力詞組,表示準時、正常運行,沒有延誤或異常。
💡 應試技巧 — 聽到與特定交通工具(如地鐵、公車、火車)相關的指示時,務必留意其運行狀態的描述(on schedule, delayed, cancelled, running late),這常是考題的重點。
📊 錯誤選項分析 — X) They are delayed — 文章原文明確說地鐵是 on schedule,與延誤相反。
X) They are also affected by construction — 雖然 Route 1 受施工影響,但文章未提及地鐵受此影響。
X) They have increased delays — 文章說地鐵 on schedule,表示沒有延誤,更不用說「增加」延誤。
