TOEIC 聽力 Part 3 — 題目
段落
Woman 1: Hi Mark, do you have a minute? I wanted to discuss the upcoming team reorganization.
Man: Sure, Sarah. What’s on your mind?
Woman 1: Well, with the new projects starting, management thinks we need to restructure the teams for better efficiency. I'm not sure how it will affect our current workflow.
Man: I see. I heard some rumors about that. Do we know who will be moving to which team?
Woman 1: Not yet officially, but I think they're aiming to finalize the plans by the end of next week. They also mentioned something about needing staff to help with the upcoming farmers market opening event next Saturday. It seems like a lot is happening at once.
Man: A farmers market opening? That sounds interesting, but I agree, the reorganization is the bigger immediate concern. Let's hope the changes are for the better.

解析
📖 文章翻譯 —
女：嗨，Mark，你有空嗎？我想討論一下即將到來的團隊重組。
男：當然，Sarah。妳有什麼想法？
女：嗯，隨著新專案的開始，管理層認為我們需要重組團隊以提高效率。我不確定這將如何影響我們目前的流程。
男：我明白了。我聽到一些關於這件事的傳言。我們知道誰將被調到哪個團隊嗎？
女：還沒有正式決定，但我認為他們目標是在下週末前確定計畫。他們也提到需要人力來協助即將到來的農夫市集開幕。
📝 答案解析 — 正確答案是「下週末前」。對話中，女方明確表示「但我認為他們aiming to finalize the plans by the end of next week」（但我認為他們目標是在下週末前確定計畫）。這直接回答了問題「when does the speaker think the reorganization plans will be finalized?」（講者認為重組計畫何時會定案？）。"Finalize the plans" 是關鍵聽力詞組。
💡 應試技巧 — 聽到表示「時間點」或「期限」的關鍵詞（如 "by the end of", "before", "after", "at", "on"）時，務必注意其後的時間或日期。這些詞語常是判斷題目的關鍵。
📊 錯誤選項分析 —
X) 下週六 — 這是下週末前的一個具體日期，但原文沒有提到具體是哪一天。
X) 農夫市集開幕後 — 雖然提到了農夫市集開幕，但講者說的是「需要人力來協助開幕」，這與重組計畫的定案時間點沒有直接關聯。
X) 明天早上 — 對話中沒有任何提及明早的資訊，與討論的重組計��定案時間無關。
