What are the speakers talking about?
M: I have a question. I’m never quite sure where to sit during a business meeting.
W: The ancient Chinese art " Feng Shui" teaches that you should never sit with the door behind you—and actually there’s a scientific reason for that. When a person’s back is placed towards an open space he becomes stressed: his blood pressure increases and his heart beats faster.
M: That makes sense! People subconsciously worry about getting attacked if they don’t know what’s going on behind them.
W: Many famous people discovered important things when they were just sitting silently by themselves... you know the story about Isaac Newton, right?
M: Yes, He came up with the theory of gravity while sitting in a field and seeing an apple fall from a tree.
W: He probably wouldn’t have had time to think about gravity if he was talking on his cell phone. Anyway, I really hope they don’t allow cell phones on planes. We need a few last places without cell phones’.
选项
A、To show the importance of scientific discoveries.
B、To explain how a falling apple inspired him.
C、To show a positive effect of not using cell phones.
D、To explain the impact of the theory of gravity.
答案
C
解析
录音开头提到牛顿的故事,说他只需静静地坐在树下就能发现万有引力定律。最后通过女士的话“He probably wouldn’t have had time to think about gravity if he was talking onhis cell phone(如果牛顿当时在打电话的话,可能根本就不会有时间去思考引力。)”可知,提到牛顿的故事是为了表明没有电话的好处。因此选C项。
