TOEIC 聽力 Part 3 — 題目
段落
Man: Hi Sarah, thanks for coming in. You reported some issues with your laptop?
Woman: Yes, Mark. It's quite frustrating. I can't seem to connect to the office network at all. My internet browser isn't loading any pages.
Man: Okay, let's take a look. Did this start happening today?
Woman: Yes, this morning. Everything was fine yesterday. I tried restarting it, but no luck. I wonder if it’s related to the new security software they installed last night. It’s making me nervous, especially with the apartment lease agreement deadline approaching. I need to send it off today.
Man: I see. Well, the software update is a possibility. Let’s check your IP settings first. Sometimes a simple reset can fix network adapter problems. Hold on... hmm, it does look like your network adapter isn't enabled properly. I'll re-enable it for you. Can you try accessing a website now?
Woman: Let me see... Yes! It’s working now. Thank goodness. Thank you so much, Mark!
Man: No problem, Sarah. Glad we could sort it out quickly. Let me know if anything else comes up. Maybe clear your browser cache if you experience slowness later.

📖 文章翻譯 —
男:嗨莎拉,謝謝妳過來。妳報告說筆記型電腦有些問題?
女:是的,馬克。這真的很令人沮喪。我根本無法連線到公司網路。我的網頁瀏覽器無法載入任何頁面。
男:好的,我們來看看。這是今天開始發生的嗎?
女:是的,是今天早上。昨天一切都還好。我試著重新啟動它,但沒有用。我想知道這是否與他們昨晚安裝的新安全軟體有關。這讓我有點擔心,特別是我的公寓租約截止日期快到了。我必須在今天寄出。
男:我明白了。嗯,那個...

📝 答案解析 —
正確答案是「今天早上」。對話中,當男性詢問「Did this start happening today?」(這是今天開始發生的嗎?),女性明確回答「Yes, this morning.」(是的,是今天早上。) 這是直接且明確的答案,不需要進一步推斷。
💡 應試技巧 —
當題幹詢問問題發生的時間點時,務必注意對話中是否有出現具體的「時間詞」(如:today, yesterday, this morning, last night) 或與之相關的敘述。聽到關鍵時間詞時,即時鎖定答案。
📊 錯誤選項分析 —
X) 昨天下午 — 錯誤,女性明確表示「Everything was fine yesterday.」(昨天一切都還好。),反駁了問題發生在昨天下午。
X) 昨晚 — 錯誤,女性提到「new security software they installed last night」(昨天晚安裝的新安全軟體) 是問題的「可能原因」,但問題本身是「今天早上」才開始發生。
X) 大約兩天前 — 錯誤,對話中完全沒有提及「兩天前」的任何時間點,也無資訊支援此選項。
