TOEIC 聽力 Part 3 — 題目

段落

Woman: Hi Mark, do you have a moment? I wanted to go over a few things for the holiday party.
Man: Sure, Sarah. What's on your mind?
Woman: Well, firstly, I need to confirm the venue booking. Did you hear back from 'The Grand Ballroom' yesterday?
Man: Yes, I did. They confirmed our reservation for the 15th, but they need final numbers by this Friday. Speaking of numbers, have you looked at the guest list we're sending out via that new digital marketing tool? I'm curious about the engagement rate.
Woman: Not yet, but I plan to check it this afternoon. I'll finalize the numbers based on the RSVPs. We also need to decide on the catering menu. I was thinking of a buffet style.
Man: A buffet sounds good, less formal. Let's aim for variety. I'll send you a link to their menu options. Oh, and we should probably book the DJ soon.
Woman: Absolutely. I'll look into that right after I check the RSVPs. Thanks, Mark!

C. Its current engagement rate

解析

📖 文章翻譯 —
女：嗨 Mark，你現在有空嗎？我想跟你討論一下關於節慶派對的一些事情。
男：當然，Sarah。妳有什麼事？
女：嗯，首先，我需要確認場地預訂。妳昨天有收到「The Grand Ballroom」的回覆嗎？
男：是的，我收到了。他們確認了我們15號的預訂，但他們需要在本週五前提供最終人數。說到數字，妳看過我們透過那個新的數位行銷工具發出的賓客名單了嗎？我很好奇它的參與率。
女：還沒，但我計畫今天下午會去看。我會根據 RSVP 來確定最終人數。

📝 答案解析 —
正確答案是 (C) Its current engagement rate (它的目前參與率)。男性在對話中明確詢問：「我很好奇它的參與率 (I'm curious about the engagement rate)」，這裡的「它」指的就是前面提到的「賓客名單 (guest list)」。因此，他想知道的是賓客名單的參與率。

💡 應試技巧 —
聽到關鍵字 "engagement rate" 後，立刻在選項中尋找與此詞彙相關的選項。對話中男性明確提出對此指標的好奇，直接對應題目。

📊 錯誤選項分析 —
A) If it has been sent out (是否已寄出) — 男性沒有問名單是否寄出，而是問了關於名單的「參與率」。
B) Who is responsible for it (誰負責) — 對話中沒有提及負責人的問題，而是關注名單的成效。
D) The total number of guests (總賓客數) — 男性詢問的是「參與率」，而非最終統計的賓客總數，雖然這兩個概念有關聯，但題目問的是他「想知道」的具體內容。
