解析
📖 文章翻譯 — 各位女士，各位先生，早安。這是關於倫敦飛往紐約的 AC789 班機的重要公告。很抱歉通知各位，由於飛機出現了意料之外的技術問題，AC789 班機將延誤約兩小時起飛。新的預計起飛時間是上午 10:30。我們明白這造成了不便，並對影響各位的旅遊計畫我們深感歉意。旅客將在登機口獲得餐飲兌換券。我們也想和各位分享一個令人振奮的消息：我們的母公司 Global Airways 已與 Skyward Airlines 完成合併。
📝 答案解析 — 答案 C) Global Airways 和 Skyward Airlines 合併 是正確的。文章直接提到「我們的母公司 Global Airways 已與 Skyward Airlines 完成合併」，這清楚地表明兩家公司進行了合併。其他選項沒有文中資訊支持。
💡 應試技巧 — 在聽力時，留意連接詞或副詞（如 "finally", "has finalized"）通常會引出重要結論或事件。聽到這些詞後要特別注意。
📊 錯誤選項分析 — X) Skyward Airlines 與另一家公司合併 — 文章只提到 Skyward Airlines 與 Global Airways 合併，沒有提及與「另一家」公司。 X) Global Airways 收購 Skyward Airlines — 文章明確說「合併」(merger)，而非「收購」(acquisition)，兩者概念不同。 X) Skyward Airlines 是一家新航空公司 — 文件中沒有任何關於 Skyward Airlines 是新成立的資訊。
