TOEIC 聽力 Part 3 — 題目
段落
Woman: Hi Mark, do you have a moment? I wanted to discuss the upcoming holiday party.
Man: Sure, Sarah. What do you have in mind?
Woman: Well, I was thinking we could hold it at the Grand Ballroom. It's elegant and has plenty of space. --- I also saw a notice about the new farmers market opening downtown; maybe we could source some local treats from there?
Man: The Grand Ballroom sounds nice, but a bit pricey. Have you looked into the catering costs? We have a strict budget this year. Remember, we also need to finalize the guest list.
Woman: You're right about the budget. I'll get a quote for the ballroom and look into alternative venues. Regarding the farmers market, I thought it could add a unique touch. Maybe we can get some artisanal bread or local preserves for appetizers?
Man: That's an interesting idea for the appetizers. Let's focus on securing a venue and confirming the date first. I'll check with finance about the budget allocation by tomorrow.

解析
���� 文章翻譯 — 女: 馬克,你現在有空嗎?我想討論一下即將到來的年終派對。
男: 當然,莎拉。你有什麼想法?
女: 嗯,我原本想說我們可以把派對辦在「盛大宴會廳」。那裡很優雅,空間也很寬敞。我還看到市中心有個新農夫市集開幕的通知;或許我們可以從那裡採購一些在地美食?
男: 盛大宴會廳聽起來不錯,但有點貴。妳有看過餐飲的費用嗎?今年我們的預算很緊。別忘了,我們還需要確定賓客名單。
女: 妳說的對,關於預算。我會去拿一份報價。
📝 答案解析 — 根據對話,女子在討論年終派對的細節。首先她提議「盛大宴會廳」,但隨後男子提到「預算問題」讓她意識到需要「拿一份報價」。這表示她會去了解宴會廳的價格,同時也意識到需要「檢查其他選項」,因為盛大宴會廳可能超出預算。因此,選項「Get a price for the ballroom and check other options」最符合她的計劃。
💡 應試技巧 — 聽到選項中提及「其他選項」時,優先連結到對話中提及的預算限制或其他替代方案的討論,這通常是正確答案的關鍵線索。
📊 錯誤選項分析 —
X) Book the Grand Ballroom immediately — 女子還沒確定,因為提到預算問題,表示她需要進一步確認。
X) Ask the finance department for more details — 對話中未提及相關部門。
X) See if the farmers market can host the event — 女子只提議從農夫市集採購食物,並未表示要將派對辦在那裡。
