題目

選項

  1. A. About 30 minutes
  2. B. At least one hour ✓
  3. C. Until tomorrow morning
  4. D. Less than 30 minutes

正確答案

B. At least one hour

解析

📖 文章翻譯 — 各位通勤者早安。這裡是您 3 月 12 日星期二的交通報告。我們注意到北向高速公路 45 號出口附近有顯著延誤。似乎發生了一起涉及一輛載有電子產品的大貨車的事故。緊急救援人員已在現場,但預計該區域至少還會壅塞一小時。這起事故影響了許多企業的交貨時間表,凸顯了健全供應鏈管理的重要性。對於往南走的旅客,交通順暢,但請注意,當您接近 30 號出口附近的施工區時,車速會放慢。
📝 答案解析 — 正確答案是「至少一小時」。文章中明確提到:「expect this area to be congested for at least another hour.」(預計該區域至少還會壅塞一小時。)「At least」是關鍵的表示最低時間範圍的詞語,直接對應了選項。
💡 應試技巧 — 聽到時間相關的表述,要特別留意「at least」、「for」、「until」、「by」、「during」等連接詞或副詞,它們通常是判斷持續時間的關鍵線索。
📊 錯誤選項分析 — X) 大約 30 分鐘 — 文章明確表示「at least another hour」,意為至少一小時,比 30 分鐘更長。 X) 直到明天早上 — 文章預計的壅塞時間僅為「another hour」,遠未到明天早上。 X) 少於 30 分鐘 — 這與文章中「at least another hour」的資訊直接矛盾。
