十、意思相近的選項往往都不是答案
　　如果有兩個選項意思明顯相近，那么這兩個選項往往都不是答案。
　　【例11】(新06-12-22)
　　【預覽選項】
　　[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.
　　【聽前預測】
　　由選項中的concession(讓步)，go to court, intimidate(威脅)， concerned(擔心)等詞可推測問題應該與男士對某事的反應有關。[A]是說他準備讓步，[B]是說他不準備上法庭，二者都表示男士要“妥協退讓” 的含義，故很可能都不是答案。
　　【聽音驗證】
　　…
　　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】選[C]。女士說讓男士等著收法庭的傳票(hear from me)，男士的回答“Yeah, yeah. See you in court(法庭見)”表明他根本not intimidated(不怕威脅)。
