友善讓你懂 │ 解說：

國內知名統一集團旗下統一超（President Chain Store Corp）的7-Eleven連鎖便利商店事業，在五月下旬於旗下一家門市，推出了新的私人商務空間包廂租用服務。這些可租用的商務包廂位於桃園青航門市（Ching Hang branch），希望能滿足新冠疫情期間人們遠距工作的需求。青航門市總計有14個隔間包廂，全都配備有Wi-Fi、桌子、還有插座可供個人器材充電。

這些包廂的大小分別可供一人、兩人與四人使用，租用的費用相對應分別是每小時台幣100元、180元和300元。使用者可以輕鬆透過自助螢幕完成付費，不用再跟服務人員接觸。

輕鬆帶著走 │ 學習：

cater單獨當動詞用時，意思是「提供/準備飲食」，例如He catered for the whole team. 他包辦了整個團隊的飲食。當使用cater to + sb/ sth的時候，則意指「迎合、滿足某人或某件事的需求/願望」等等。

例句：
Online English learning platforms cater to people’s needs to communicate with native speakers.
