TOEIC 聽力 Part 3 — 題目
段落
Man: Hello, customer service. How can I help you?
Woman: Hi, I’m calling about the building’s elevator. It’s been out of service since yesterday morning.
Man: Oh, I’m very sorry to hear that. We are aware of the issue. Our maintenance team is working on it right now.
Woman: Do you know when it will be fixed? I live on the 10th floor, and it’s very difficult to climb the stairs every day.
Man: I understand your frustration. The technicians are doing their best. It looks like it’s related to the recent elevator maintenance closure we announced last week. It should be available by tomorrow afternoon.
Woman: Tomorrow afternoon? That’s still a long time. Is there any discount for the inconvenience?
Man: Let me check… Yes, we can offer you a 10% discount on your next rent payment for the trouble.
Woman: Okay, thank you. I hope it’s fixed by then.

正確答案
D. Until tomorrow afternoon
解析
📖 文章翻譯 —
男：您好，客服中心，請問有什麼需要幫忙的嗎？
女：你好，我打電話來是關於這棟樓的電梯。它自昨天早上起就停止服務了。
男：哦，聽到這個消息我非常抱歉。我們已經了解這個問題了。我們的維修團隊正在處理。
女：你知道什麼時候會修好嗎？我住在十樓，每天爬樓梯很不方便。
男：我理解您的沮喪。技術人員正在盡力而為。看起來這與我們上週預告的近期電梯維護停用有關。它應該會在明天下午可用。
📝 答案解析 — 正確答案是「Until tomorrow afternoon」。對話中，男士提到「It should be available by tomorrow afternoon」，這直接回答了女士關於電梯何時能修好的問題。此為直接聽力理解題，關鍵在於精確捕捉預計修復完成的時間點。
💡 應試技巧 — 預測問題並標記關鍵時間信息。在聽到男士說「tomorrow afternoon」時，立即聯想到這就是對「how long will the elevator be unavailable?」問題的回答，無需額外推理。
📊 錯誤選項分析 —
X) Until this evening — 男士並未提及電梯會在今晚修復。
X) Until tomorrow morning — 對話中明確說的是「tomorrow afternoon」，而非「tomorrow morning」。
X) Until next week — 沒有任何信息表明電梯會停用到下週。
