TOEIC 閱讀 Part 7 — 題目

段落

This is a review for "The Cozy Corner Cafe". I visited last Tuesday evening. The ambiance was pleasant initially, with soft lighting and comfortable seating. However, as the evening progressed, the noise level increased significantly. It became very difficult to have a conversation at our table without raising our voices. While the coffee was good and the pastry fresh, the excessive noise detracted from the overall experience. I wouldn't recommend it for a quiet dinner or important business meeting, though it might be fine for a casual, loud gathering. I was also trying to finalize a conference room booking for next month, and the noise made it impossible to focus on the details with the venue manager over the phone.

解析

[KO] 📖 지문해석 — 이 내용은 "The Cozy Corner Cafe"에 대한 리뷰입니다. 리뷰어는 지난 화요일 저녁에 카페를 방문했습니다. 처음에는 조명과 좌석이 편안하여 분위기가 좋았지만, 저녁이 지나면서 소음 수준이 상당히 높아졌습니다. 이는 대화가 어려울 정도였습니다. 커피와 페이스트리는 좋았지만, 과도한 소음이 전반적인 경험을 해쳤습니다.
📝 정답이유 — 정답은 "The restaurant became noisy later in the evening."입니다. 지문에서 "However, as the evening progressed, the noise level increased significantly."라는 문구가 명확하게 이를 뒷받침합니다. 'as the evening progressed'는 '저녁이 진행됨에 따라'를 의미하며, 'increased significantly'는 소음이 나중에 늘어났다는 것을 나타냅니다.
💡 실전팁 — Part 7에서 시간의 흐름을 나타내는 부사구 (예: 'initially', 'as the evening progressed', 'later')에 주목하세요. 이는 사건의 순서나 변화를 묻는 질문에 대한 답을 찾는 데 매우 중요합니다.
📊 오답분석 — X) "The restaurant was noisy from the start." — 지문 초반에는 'ambiance was pleasant'라고 언급하며 소음이 처음부터 높지 않았음을 암시합니다. X) "The restaurant was always quiet." — 'noise level increased significantly'라는 구절과 명백히 모순됩니다. X) "The restaurant was only noisy at the beginning." — 'at the beginning'은 'initially'와 같은 의미이며, 지문에서는 저녁이 지나면서 소음이 늘었다고 했으므로 반대되는 내용입니다.

[JA] 📖 本文の和訳 — これは「The Cozy Corner Cafe」のレビューです。レビューアーは先週の火曜日の夜に訪れました。当初は、柔らかい照明と快適な座席で、雰囲気が心地よかったのですが、夜が進むにつれて、騒音レベルが著しく増加しました。会話が困難になるほどでした。コーヒーもペストリーも良かったのですが、過剰な騒音が全体的な経験を損ないました。
📝 정답이유 — 正解は「The restaurant became noisy later in the evening.」です。本文中の「However, as the evening progressed, the noise level increased significantly.」という一文が明確にこれを支持しています。「as the evening progressed」は「夜が進むにつれて」という意味で、「increased significantly」は騒音が後に著しく増加したことを示しています。
💡 실전팁 — Part 7 では、時間経過を示す副詞句（例：「initially」、「as the evening progressed」、「later」）に注目してください。これは出来事の順序や変化を問う問題の答えを見つけるのに非常に役立ちます。
📊 오답분석 — X) 「The restaurant was noisy from the start.」 — 本文の冒頭では「ambiance was pleasant」と述べられており、最初から騒がしかったわけではないことを示唆しています。 X) 「The restaurant was always quiet.」 — 「noise level increased significantly」というフレーズと明らかに矛盾します。 X) 「The restaurant was only noisy at the beginning.」 — 「at the beginning」は「initially」と同じ意味ですが、本文では夜が進むにつれて騒音が増したと述べているため、逆の内容です。

💡 실전팁 — ใน Part 7 ให้สังเกตวลีที่บอกลำดับเวลา (เช่น "initially", "as the evening progressed", "later") ซึ่งสำคัญมากในการหาคำตอบสำหรับคำถามที่เกี่ยวกับลำดับเหตุการณ์หรือการเปลี่ยนแปลง
📊 오답분석 — X) "The restaurant was noisy from the start." — บทอ่านกล่าวว่า "ambiance was pleasant initially" ซึ่งบ่งชี้ว่าตอนแรกไม่ได้เสียงดัง X) "The restaurant was always quiet." — ขัดแย้งกับข้อความ "noise level increased significantly" อย่างชัดเจน X) "The restaurant was only noisy at the beginning." — "at the beginning" มีความหมายเหมือนกับ "initially" แต่บทอ่านระบุว่าเสียงดังขึ้นเมื่อช่วงเย็นดำเนินไป จึงเป็นข้อมูลที่ตรงกันข้าม

Ban đầu, không khí rất dễ chịu, với ánh sáng dịu nhẹ và chỗ ngồi thoải mái. Tuy nhiên, khi buổi tối diễn ra, mức độ tiếng ồn đã tăng lên đáng kể. Việc trò chuyện tại bàn mà không cần nói to trở nên rất khó khăn. Mặc dù cà phê ngon và bánh tươi, tiếng ồn quá lớn đã làm giảm trải nghiệm tổng thể.
📝 정답이유 — Đáp án chính xác là "The restaurant became noisy later in the evening." Câu "However, as the evening progressed, the noise level increased significantly." trong đoạn văn là bằng chứng rõ ràng. Cụm từ "as the evening progressed" có nghĩa là "khi buổi tối diễn ra" và "increased significantly" cho thấy mức độ tiếng ồn đã tăng lên sau đó.

📊 오답분석 — X) "The restaurant was noisy from the start." — Đoạn văn nói rằng "ambiance was pleasant initially" (ban đầu không khí dễ chịu), cho thấy quán không ồn ào ngay từ đầu. X) "The restaurant was always quiet." — Câu này mâu thuẫn rõ ràng với cụm từ "noise level increased significantly". X) "The restaurant was only noisy at the beginning." — "at the beginning" (vào lúc bắt đầu) có nghĩa giống như "initially", nhưng đoạn văn nói rằng quán trở nên ồn ào hơn khi buổi tối diễn ra, trái ngược với điều này.

📖 文章翻譯 — 這是一篇關於「The Cozy Corner Cafe」的評論。我上週二晚上去過。起初的氛圍很令人愉快，有柔和的燈光和舒適的座位。然而，隨著夜晚的進行，噪音水平顯著增加。在我們桌上，若不提高音量，就很難進行對話。雖然咖啡很好，糕點也很新鮮，但過度的噪音影響了整體體驗。我不推薦這裡適合安靜的晚餐或重要的商務會議，但對於隨意、熱鬧的聚會來說可能還可以。我當時也正在試圖完成一個會議
Options: ["The restaurant was noisy from the start.","The restaurant became noisy later in the evening.","The restaurant was always quiet.","The restaurant was only noisy at the beginning."]
📝 答案解析 — 正確答案是「餐廳在晚些時候開始變吵」。文章中提到「起初的氛圍很令人愉快」，接著說「然而，隨著夜晚的進行，噪音水平顯著增加」，這直接表明噪音是在晚間時段才變大，而非一開始就如此。
💡 應試技巧 — 尋���轉折詞，例如「however」、「but」、「although」、「while」，這些詞後面常接續描述事物變化的關鍵資訊，能幫助讀者快速定位關鍵句子。
📊 錯誤選項分析 — X) The restaurant was noisy from the start. — 文章開頭描述「起初的氛圍很令人愉快」，與此選項矛盾。 X) The restaurant was always quiet. — 文章明確指出「噪音水平顯著增加」，與此選項相反。 X) The restaurant was only noisy at the beginning. — 文章描述噪音是「隨著夜晚的進行」而增加，表示開始時並不吵，與此選項不符。

[EN] 📖 Passage Translation — This is a review for "The Cozy Corner Cafe". The reviewer visited last Tuesday evening. Initially, the ambiance was pleasant, with soft lighting and comfortable seating. However, as the evening progressed, the noise level increased significantly. It became very difficult to have a conversation at our table without raising our voices. While the coffee was good and the pastry fresh, the excessive noise detracted from the overall experience.
📝 Why this answer — The correct answer is "The restaurant became noisy later in the evening." The sentence "However, as the evening progressed, the noise level increased significantly." in the passage is the clear clue. The phrase "as the evening progressed" means as time went on into the evening, and "increased significantly" indicates the noise level went up later.
💡 Test-day tip — In Part 7, pay attention to time-related phrases like "initially," "as the evening progressed," and "later." These signal changes over time and are crucial for answering questions about the sequence of events.
📊 Wrong-option analysis — X) "The restaurant was noisy from the start." — The passage states the ambiance was "pleasant initially," indicating it wasn't noisy at the beginning. X) "The restaurant was always quiet." — This directly contradicts the phrase "noise level increased significantly." X) "The restaurant was only noisy at the beginning." — "at the beginning" is the opposite of "as the evening progressed" (later in the evening), which is what the passage describes.
