  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”。
