TOEIC 聽力 Part 4 — 題目

段落

Good morning, commuters. This is your live traffic update. We're seeing heavy congestion on the I-5 northbound, particularly around the downtown exits, due to an earlier lane closure for emergency repairs. Expect significant delays there. Further south, an overturned vehicle on Highway 101 near Green Valley Road is causing backups in both directions. Avoid that area if possible. On the bright side, the East Freeway is flowing smoothly this morning. We'll be back with another update in 15 minutes.

選項

  1. A. In a quarter of an hour ✓
  2. B. Immediately after this report
  3. C. At the end of the day
  4. D. Once the road is clear

正確答案

A. In a quarter of an hour

解析

📖 文章翻譯 — 各位通勤的朋友早安。這是您的即時交通消息。我們注意到 I-5 北向車道交通壅塞嚴重,尤其是在市中心出口附近,原因是先前有車道因緊急維修而關閉。預計該路段將有顯著延誤。往南邊,101號公路上靠近 Green Valley Road 處發生翻車事故,導致雙向交通中斷。若有可能,請避開該區域。好消息是,東向快速道路今晨交通順暢。我們將在 15 分鐘後提供另一則更新。
📝 答案解析 — 正確答案是「In a quarter of an hour」(一刻鐘後)。文章結尾明確提到:「We'll be back with another update in 15 minutes.」(我們將在 15 分鐘後提供另一則更新)。 15 分鐘等於一刻鐘,因此選項「In a quarter of an hour」與文中的時間資訊完全一致。
💡 應試技巧 — 聽辨數字和時間單位是 Part 4 的關鍵。聽到「15 minutes」時,立刻聯想到「a quarter of an hour」(一刻鐘),並尋找與之對應的選項。
📊 錯誤選項分析 —
X) Immediately after this report (在此報告之後立即) — 文章並未提及更新會緊接著這次廣播。
X) At the end of the day (在一天結束時) — 這與文中明確提到的「15 minutes」時間點不符。
X) Once the road is clear (一旦道路暢通) — 文章提到交通更新的時間是固定的 15 分鐘,而非取決於道路是否暢通。
