TOEIC 聽力 Part 3 — 題目

段落

Man 1: Alright team, let's kick off this meeting. As you know, we've been discussing a potential reorganization to improve efficiency. Sarah, can you update us on the proposed departmental changes?
Woman 1: Certainly. We're considering merging the logistics and inventory departments. This could streamline our supply chain significantly. However, it does mean some roles will shift, and we need to consider the impact on the parking lot maintenance schedule we oversees.
Man 2: That's a valid concern, Sarah. We need adequate personnel for snow removal and general upkeep, especially with the winter season approaching. Have we assessed the staffing needs for that transition?
Woman 1: We're compiling a detailed analysis now. We aim to ensure that essential services, like parking lot maintenance and security, aren't compromised during the transition. John, what are your thoughts from the security perspective?
Man 2: From a security standpoint, ensuring clear access and visibility in the parking areas is paramount, especially during adverse weather. A reduction in consistent oversight could pose risks. We’ll need a clear handover protocol for contractor responsibilities.
Man 1: Understood. So, the key priorities are finalizing the departmental impacts, assessing staffing for critical functions like parking lot maintenance, and establishing clear protocols. Let's reconvene on Friday with the updated analysis.

題目

What change is being considered for the departments?

選項

  1. A. Creating a new customer service department
  2. B. Separating the existing logistics department
  3. C. Combining the logistics and inventory departments ✓
  4. D. Moving the security department to a new location

正確答案

C. Combining the logistics and inventory departments

解析

📖 文章翻譯 — 好的團隊，我們開始會議吧。正如大家所知，我們一直在討論潛在的重組以提高效率。莎拉，妳能更新一下關於擬議部門變動的資訊嗎？當然。我們正在考慮合併物流部門和庫存部門。這可以顯著地簡化我們的供應鏈。然而，這確實意味著一些職位會有所變動，並且我們需要考慮這對我們負責的停車場維護時間表的影響。這是一個合理的擔憂，莎拉。我們需要足夠的人員來進行鏟雪和日常維護，尤其是在冬季。
📝 答案解析 — 正確答案是「合併物流部門與庫存部門」。對話中，婦女明確說出：「我們正在考慮合併物流部門和庫存部門。」 (we're considering merging the logistics and inventory departments)。這句話直接呼應了選項，表明了正在考慮的變動。
💡 應試技巧 — 聽到關鍵的動詞（如 "merging" 考慮合併）和名詞（如 "logistics", "inventory departments" 物流、庫存部門）時，務必立即將其與選項中的關鍵字進行比對。
📊 錯誤選項分析 — X) 建立新的客服部門 — 對話中沒有提到建立新的客服部門。 X) 分離現有的物流部門 — 對話中提到的是合併，而非分離。 X) 將保全部門遷至新地點 — 對話中完全沒有提到保全部門或其地點的變動。
