題目

What achievement of the Marketing department campaign is mentioned?

選項

  1. A. It led to the development of Synergy software.
  2. B. It increased client appreciation by 20%.
  3. C. It resulted in a 20% rise in engagement. ✓
  4. D. It was instrumental in organizing the company picnic.

正確答案

C. It resulted in a 20% rise in engagement.

解析

📖 文章翻譯 — 標題為「創新與洞見：Horizon 週報」，發布日期為 2023 年 10 月 26 日。「社長的信」部分提到，本季研發部門有重大突破，上個月舉辦了成功的客戶答謝活動。研究團隊已完成名為「Synergy」的新軟體原型，預計將革新專案管理。此外，文章也提到了員工 Maria Garcia 的專訪。
📝 答案解析 — 正確答案是「It resulted in a 20% rise in engagement.」。文中提到「a highly successful client appreciation event last month」，雖然未直接說明Engagement的確切百分比，但「highly successful」暗示了活動的成功，並可能與參與度（engagement）的提升有關。不過，此題目的正確答案與文章內容似乎存在出入，因為文章並未提及「20% rise in engagement」。若問題為「What event was mentioned as highly successful?」，答案會是「client appreciation event」。
💡 應試技巧 — 在閱讀題幹時，先辨識出關鍵字（如：achievement, Marketing department campaign），再掃描文章尋找這些關鍵字或其同義詞，接著仔細閱讀該段落的內容，找出與關鍵字最相關的敘述。
📊 錯誤選項分析 — X) It led to the development of Synergy software. — Synergy 軟體是研發部門的成就，而非行銷活動。X) It increased client appreciation by 20%. — 文章提到「client appreciation event」，但未提及「20%」的增長。X) It was instrumental in organizing the company picnic. — 文章未提及公司野餐活動。
