    A  There is a great difference between listening and hearing. You should make efforts in listening. Listening demands your attention and concentration. It may mean quizzing the speaker for additional information or for clarification. It is always better to ask than to continue regardless and get things wrong. However, if you are absent-minded,  even for a few minutes, you’ll miss what the speaker is saying probably at the very moment when he or she is saying something critical. And not having heard,  you won’t know you’ve missed anything until it’s too late.
    B  We are likely to accuse others of not listening, pretending that We ourselves are faultless, yet in our hearts we know that many of the mistakes we make come about because we haven’t listened carefully enough. We get things wrong because we have failed to understand completely what someone meant when they were talking to us. Anyone who has ever taken the minutes of a long meeting will know how hard it is to remember—despite the benefit of notes—exactly what everyone said. But Success depends on getting things right—and that means listening.
    C  You should be aware that many people are not very good at communicating. It’s helpful to remember that the ways people move and position themselves while they are speaking can reveal a great deal about what they are saying. It is equally important that you should put yourself in the other person’s place, both intellectually and emotionally; it will help you to understand what they are getting at and form a response. But don’t be too clever. Faced with a know-all, many people keep quiet because they see no point in continuing.
    D  It is a very bad habit that we start thinking of what we are going to say about the subject long before the other speaker has finished. We then stop listening. Even worse, this often adds rudeness to inattentiveness. as once you have decided what to say, there is a fair chance you will interrupt to say it. Good listeners don’t interrupt. In fact it is often worth explaining the main idea of what you have just been told before going on to make your own points. Nobody is offended by this and it shows that you have listened well.
It is risky to allow your mind to wander onto something else while someone is speaking.
选项
答案A
解析 题目意为：别人讲话时你想别的事是很危险的。A段指出“…if you are absentminded，…you’ll miss what the speaker is saying probably…when he or she is saying something critical.”即：如果你心不在焉……你很可能在说话者正在说重要事情的时候错过了他/她说的内容。其中，文中的absent-minded对应于题干中的wander onto something else.
