正確答案
A. What is the chance of rain this afternoon?
解析
📖 文章翻譯 — 早安，這是您每日的天氣預報。今天預計為部分多雲的天氣，最高溫為攝氏25度。風勢輕微，來自西北方。下午時，有小Probability of rain (下雨機率)，所以您可能想把雨傘帶在身邊。今晚，氣溫將降至約18度，天空將恢復晴朗。明天，我們將迎來更溫暖的天氣，最高溫接近28度，全天皆為晴朗天氣。請記得在一天中較溫暖的時段保持水分補充。另外，提醒您水電費繳款截止日期在本週末。
📝 答案解析 — 正確答案是「What is the chance of rain this afternoon?」。文章中明確提到「In the afternoon, there's a slight chance of rain」，直接對應了這個問題。這是最直接且準確的資訊擷取題。
💡 應試技巧 — 聽到「afternoon」和與天氣相關的詞彙（如「rain」、「chance」）時，立刻尋找與下午天氣預報的具體描述，這類題目通常會直接給出答案。
📊 錯誤選項分析 — X) Will it rain all day? — 文章只提到下午有「slight chance of rain」，並未說明是否會下整天。X) What is the temperature this afternoon? — 文章提到了白天的最高溫（25度）和晚上的低溫（18度），但沒有明確說出「下午」具體的溫度，僅是白天最高溫。X) When will it rain? — 文章提到下午有下雨的機率，但並未給出明確的下雨時間點。
