TOEIC 聽力 Part 3 — 題目
段落
Woman 1: Alright team, let's finalize the plans for our annual holiday party. Sarah, you were handling the venue booking, right?
Man 1: Yes, I've confirmed the booking at the Grand Ballroom for December 15th. I've also requested a preliminary menu.
Woman 2: Excellent. John, what about the entertainment? We need something engaging but also professional.
Man 1: I've contacted a few bands and a DJ. I'm waiting for their quotes. I also thought we could include a short session on **cybersecurity training** as a fun, informative activity, maybe a brief quiz with prizes? It ties into our Q4 focus nicely.
Woman 1: That's an interesting idea, John. It might be a bit unusual for a party, but if it's light-hearted, it could work. Let's see the quotes first. Maria, how are the invitations coming along?
Woman 2: The digital invitations are almost ready. I'll send out a draft for everyone to review by tomorrow. I'm also coordinating with HR about the guest list and dietary restrictions.

📖 文章翻譯 —
女1:好的,團隊,讓我們確定年度假期派對的計畫。莎拉,妳負責預訂場地,對嗎?
男1:是的,我已經確認了12月15日在Grand Ballroom的預訂。我也已索取初步菜單。
女2:太好了。約翰,娛樂方面呢?我們需要一些具吸引力又專業的表演。
男1:我已經聯繫了幾支樂團和一位DJ。我正在等他們的報價。我想我們也可以安排一個簡短的**網路安全培訓**課程,作為一個有趣且具啟發性的活動,也許有個小測驗和獎品?這與我們第四季的重點有關。

📝 答案解析 —
正確答案是瑪麗亞,雖然她在對話中沒有直接出現,但她是唯一一個被提及與人力資源(HR)協調此事的人。男1提到「這 ties into our Q4 focus nicely」,這暗示著公司有某種政策或專案,而瑪麗亞很可能就是負責協調此類跨部門專案的HR代表。考生需要從對話的潛在含義中推斷。
💡 應試技巧 —
當對話中未直接提及某人,但有提及某人的職責與人力資源相關時,應考慮該人物是與HR協調的對象。注意對話中與「公司重點」或「政策」相關的線索。
📊 錯誤選項分析 —
X) 莎拉 — 莎拉負責場地預訂,與HR協調不是她的職責。
X) 約翰 — 約翰負責聯絡樂團、DJ並提出安全培訓的點子,他的任務是娛樂與活動內容,而非HR協調。
X) 女1 — 女1是發起討論和分配任務的人,她不是與HR協調的一方。
