本篇情境是電話預訂旅館——Part 1 最經典的題型之一。考點集中在連續數字(信用卡、電話、郵遞區號)、房型選擇變動、以及套餐內容理解(早餐含不含、晚餐另計)。目標:2-3 個連續數字不要混淆抄錯。
Listening Transcript
Receptionist: Seaview Hotel, reservations, good morning.
Michael: Morning. I'd like to book a room for three nights, please — arriving on the eighteenth of May.
Receptionist: Certainly, sir. Three nights from the eighteenth, so checking out on the twenty-first. May I have your name?
Michael: Michael Wainwright. W-A-I-N-W-R-I-G-H-T.
Receptionist: Thank you, Mr Wainwright. Now, what type of room were you after? We have a Standard Double at ninety pounds, a Sea-View Double at one hundred and ten, and a Family Suite at one hundred and forty-five.
Michael: The Sea-View sounds lovely, but — actually, on reflection, the Standard would do, I'm on business.
Receptionist: Standard Double, three nights. That's two hundred and seventy pounds total. Breakfast is included — it's served from seven to ten in the restaurant on the ground floor.
Michael: Is there parking?
Receptionist: Yes, we have a small car park at the rear. It's free for guests, but you'll need to register your vehicle at reception on arrival.
Michael: My registration number is GY63 — sorry, that's my old car — it's LR19 KPT now.
Receptionist: LR19 KPT. Lovely. How would you like to pay?
Michael: Credit card. It's a Mastercard, number 5412 8867 2301 — wait, 2301 9954.
Receptionist: So the full number is 5412 8867 2301 9954. Expiry?
Michael: August twenty twenty-seven.
Receptionist: And a contact number in case we need to reach you?
Michael: My landline, if that's alright — 01733 642198.
Receptionist: Perfect. One last thing — any special requests? Some guests ask for extra pillows or a cot.
Michael: A late check-out, if possible? My train isn't until four.
Receptionist: We can hold the room until two p.m. at no extra charge. After that it's an additional twenty-five pounds.
Michael: Two p.m. is fine.
Receptionist: Brilliant. Your booking reference is SV four-seven-nine-two-C. I'll email you confirmation — could I have your email?
Michael: m.wainwright@hotmail.co.uk.
Receptionist: Emailed in the next ten minutes. We look forward to seeing you on the eighteenth.

Answer Key with Trap Analysis
| # | Answer | Key moment in transcript | 陷阱 / 注意 | |---|------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------| | 1 | Wainwright | "Michael Wainwright. W-A-I-N-W-R-I-G-H-T" | 照拼音。W 開頭易漏聽。 | | 2 | 18 / 18th | "arriving on the eighteenth of May" | 不要被 21st (checkout) 干擾。 | | 3 | Standard | "actually, on reflection, the Standard would do" | 自我更正陷阱:先說 Sea-View,更正為 Standard。 | | 4 | 270 | "That's two hundred and seventy pounds total" | 不要抄 £90(單晚價)。題目要 total。 | | 5 | LR19 | "GY63 — sorry, that's my old car — it's LR19 KPT now" | 自我更正陷阱:先給舊車牌 GY63,更正為 LR19。 | | 6 | August | "August twenty twenty-seven" | 題目問 month,不要寫 2027。 | | 7 | 01733 642198 | "01733 642198" | 整串照抄,不要漏區碼。 | | 8 | 7 / seven | "served from seven to ten" | 題目問 start,取前面的時間。 | | 9 | ground | "in the restaurant on the ground floor" | 寫 ground,不要寫 1st。英式「ground floor」≠ 美式「first floor」。 | | 10| 2 | "We can hold the room until two p.m. at no extra charge" | 干擾費用:£25 是超過 2pm 的費用,題目問 free → 取 2pm。 |
陷阱總結
- 第 3、5 題都是「自我更正」疊加:同一段對話兩次說錯 → 更正。聽到 actually / sorry / on reflection 立刻警覺。
- 第 6 題最容易失分:寫 August 比寫 August 2027 更穩——題目只要 month。超字數 = 0 分。
- 第 9 題文化陷阱:英式 ground floor = 美式 1st floor。IELTS 是英國考試,照原文寫 ground。
- 信用卡號(未列為題目):錄音中還有 5412 8867 2301 — wait, 2301 9954 的自我更正——考試若考此題,答案取 5412 8867 2301 9954(中段 2301 重複是更正訊號)。
