TOEIC 聽力 Part 3 — 題目
段落
Man: Hi Sarah, thanks for coming in. You reported some issues with your laptop?
Woman: Yes, Mark. It's quite frustrating. I can't seem to connect to the office network at all. My internet browser isn't loading any pages.
Man: Okay, let's take a look. Did this start happening today?
Woman: Yes, this morning. Everything was fine yesterday. I tried restarting it, but no luck. I wonder if it’s related to the new security software they installed last night. It’s making me nervous, especially with the apartment lease agreement deadline approaching. I need to send it off today.
Man: I see. Well, the software update is a possibility. Let’s check your IP settings first. Sometimes a simple reset can fix network adapter problems. Hold on... hmm, it does look like your network adapter isn't enabled properly. I'll re-enable it for you. Can you try accessing a website now?
Woman: Let me see... Yes! It’s working now. Thank goodness. Thank you so much, Mark!
Man: No problem, Sarah. Glad we could sort it out quickly. Let me know if anything else comes up. Maybe clear your browser cache if you experience slowness later.

解析
📖 文章翻譯 —
男：嗨，莎拉，謝謝妳���來。妳報告了筆記型電腦有些問題？
女：是的，馬克。這很令人沮喪。我完全無法連線到公司網路。我的網路瀏覽器無法載入任何網頁。
男：好的，讓我們來看看。這個問題是今天開始發生的嗎？
女：是的，今天早上。昨天一切都很好。我試著重新啟動它，但沒有用。我想知道這是否與他們昨晚安裝的新安全性軟體有關。這讓我很緊張，尤其是公寓租賃協議的截止日期快到了。我今天需要寄出。
男：我明白了。嗯，那...
📝 答案解析 —
正確答案是「截止日期是今天」。對話中，女士提到「公寓租賃協議的截止日期將至」並且「我今天需要寄出」，這清楚表明了她急著處理租賃協議的原因是時效性，因為截止日期就在當天。
💡 應試技巧 —
聽到關鍵時間點詞彙（如「deadline」、「today」）時，立刻連結到問題中的「why in a hurry」或類似的詢問急迫性的問題，判斷原因。
📊 錯誤選項分析 —
X) 她的房東要求立即付款 — 對話中並未提及房東或付款事宜。
X) 她想快速搬進新公寓 — 對話中未提及搬家計畫或對搬入新公寓的渴望。
X) IT部門要求它才能存取網路 — 對話中提及網路問題，但女士寄送租賃協議的原因與IT部門的要求無關。
