TOEIC 聽力 Part 3 — 題目
段落
Woman A: Hi Ben, did you receive the latest internal memo regarding the IT system upgrade?
Man B: Oh, yes, I saw that this morning. It says the main server will be down for scheduled maintenance next Friday, doesn't it?
Woman A: That's right. The notice mentioned potential disruptions to network access between 9 AM and 5 PM. I'm a bit concerned about how this might affect our ongoing project.
Man B: Me too. I was hoping to finalize the data migration by then. I suppose we'll need to adjust our timeline. Did they specify the exact duration?
Woman A: Not precisely, but they advised all staff to complete critical tasks before Friday afternoon. They also recommended backing up any essential files beforehand.
Man B: Good point. I'll make sure to do that. Perhaps we should inform the team about this and see if we can reschedule some of our collaborative sessions.

📖 文章翻譯 —
女 A:嗨 Ben,你有收到關於 IT 系統升級的最新內部備忘錄嗎?
男 B:哦,對,我今天早上看到了。上面說主要伺服器將在下週五進行排定的維護關機,對嗎?
女 A:沒錯。通知中提到 9 AM 到 5 PM 之間可能會對網路存取造成潛在的干擾。我有點擔心這會如何影響我們正在進行的專案。

選項:["全天完全中斷","間歇性中斷","尖峰時段速度降低","僅限存取外部網站"]
📝 答案解析 —
正確答案是 (1) 間歇性中斷。關鍵線索是女性 A 說的 "potential disruptions to network access between 9 AM and 5 PM"。這句話明確指出網路存取可能會有「干擾」,而不是完全中斷或僅限特定情況。
💡 應試技巧 —
聽到「disruptions」(干擾)這個詞時,要注意與之相關的描述,通常代表非完全性的問題,例如暫時的、間歇性的或不穩定的狀況,而非完全停擺。
📊 錯誤選項分析 —
0) 全天完全中斷 — 錯誤。文中提到的是「potential disruptions」(潛在的干擾),而非「complete outage」(完全中斷)或「down for the entire day」。
2) 尖峰時段速度降低 — 錯誤。文中沒有提到「speed reduction」(速度降低)或「peak hours」(尖峰時段),只說了「disruptions to network access」。
3) 僅限存取外部網站 — 錯誤。文中沒有限定干擾僅發生於「external websites」(外部網站),而是廣泛指「network access」(網路存取)。
