九、明显不符常理的选项往往不是答案
有的选项明显不符合该对话情景下的常识或常理,那么该选项往往也不是答案。
【例10】(新06-12-25)
【预览选项】
[A] Accurate communication is of utmost importance.
[B] Pilots should be able to speak several foreign languages.
[C] Air controllers should keep a close watch on the weather.
[D] Cooperation between pilots and air controllers is essential.
【听前预测】
由选项中的should可推知,本题应该是考查观点或建议。选项内容表明问题应该与确保安全飞行的因素有关。[B]是说飞行员应该会说几门外语,这不大合乎常理,因为飞国内行线的飞行员并不一定要会好几门外语,故[B]为答案的可能性较小。
【听音验证】
…
M: Sadly enough, yes they did. It was a really bad mistake. Many people died as a result of the simple misunderstanding.
W: Wow, that’s a powerful lesson on how important it can be to accurately communicate to each other.【答案解析】
25. What lesson could be drawn from the accident?
【解析】选[A]。对话的最后女士总结了这次事故的教训:how important it can be to accurately communicate to each other,答案是对此的同义转述。utmost意为“极大的”。
十、意思相近的选项往往都不是答案
如果有两个选项意思明显相近,那么这两个选项往往都不是答案。
【例11】(新06-12-22)
【预览选项】
[A] He was ready to make a concession.
[B] He was not prepared to go to court.
[C] He was not intimidated.
[D] He was a bit concerned.
【听前预测】
由选项中的concession(让步),go to court, intimidate(威胁), concerned(担心)等词可推测问题应该与男士对某事的反应有关。[A]是说他准备让步,[B]是说他不准备上法庭,二者都表示男士要“妥协退让”的含义,故很可能都不是答案。
【听音验证】
…
M: Get the branches off my property or I’ll have to sue you.
M: Yeah? For what?! …
W: You’ll be hearing from me.
M: Yeah, yeah. See you in court, Jane.
【答案解析】
22. What was the man’s reaction to the woman’s threat?
【解析】选[C]。女士说让男士等着收法庭的传票(hear from me),男士的回答“Yeah, yeah. See you in court(法庭见)”表明他根本not intimidated(不怕威胁)。
