TOEIC 聽力 Part 3 — 題目

段落

Man: Hi Sarah, do you have a moment? I wanted to discuss the upcoming office relocation.
Woman: Oh, hi Mark. Yes, I do. What's on your mind?
Man: I was reviewing the timeline, and it seems quite compressed. Are we sure about the moving date? It feels aggressive.
Woman: I understand your concern. The management is keen to finalize the move by the end of next quarter. We've confirmed the new building's availability, and the contractors are on schedule. We just need to finalize the logistics for the actual move.
Man: Right. Have we arranged for the IT department to handle the C-suite equipment first? Their setup is quite complex.
Woman: Absolutely. IT is prioritized. They'll be the first ones to be moved and set up in the new space. By the way, did you see the internal memo about the revised boarding gate for the upcoming company retreat flight? It looks like there's been a slight change. We should probably remind everyone.

解析

📖 文章翻譯 —
男：嗨 Sarah，妳有空嗎？我想討論一下即將到來的辦公室搬遷。
女：喔，嗨 Mark。是的，我有空。你在想什麼？
男：我正在審閱時程表，感覺時間有點緊迫。我們確定搬遷日期嗎？感覺有點趕。
女：我了解你的擔憂。管理層希望在下個季度結束前完成搬遷。我們已經確認了新大樓的可用性，承包商也都在進度上。我們只需要確定實際搬遷的後勤事宜。
男：對。我們有安排資訊科技部門處理高層設備嗎？

📝 答案解析 —
選項 B (她解釋管理層希望盡快搬遷，並確認承包商的狀況) 是正確答案。Sarah 解釋說「管理層希望在下個季度結束前完成搬遷」，並提到「承包商也都在進度上」，這直接回應了 Mark 對時程表「壓縮」和「趕」的擔憂，並提供了管理層的動機和目前的進度資訊。

💡 應試技巧 —
聽到對方提出疑慮（例如「seems quite compressed」、「aggressive」），要特別留意回答者是否提供具體原因（例如「management is keen」、「building's availability」、「contractors are on schedule」）來解釋或反駁此疑慮。

📊 錯誤選項分析 —
A) 她同意這很趕並建議延遲 — Sarah 並沒有同意延遲，而是解釋了延遲的困難，因為管理層希望盡快完成。
C) 她請 Mark 自己去和承包商確認 — Sarah 直接提供了承包商的狀況，沒有要求 Mark 私下聯繫。
D) 她駁斥他的擔憂，說日期已確定 — Sarah 並未駁斥 Mark 的擔憂，而是表示理解（「I understand your concern」），並主動提供了進一步的資訊。
