问题 Which of the following aspects is NOT mentioned in the secret tape recordings?
  
A high society family feud that’s captivated France is apparently over. The row involving France’s richest woman, the L’Oreal billionaire Liliane Bettencourt, grew into a political scandal when secret tapes led to allegations that she had made illegal donations to Nicolas Sarkozy’s presidential campaign.
    Liliane Bettencourt’s daughter feared her mother was gradually handing control of the $20bn family estate to the society photographer Francois-Marie Banier. Among her extravagant gifts to him was an island in the Seychelles. The daughter Francoise took him to court, accusing him of exploiting her elderly mother’s mental fragility. [7] Secret tape recordings appeared to reveal tax evasion, political influence and illegal donations to the party of French President Nicolas Sarkozy. The scandal dominated the front pages in France for weeks. But now they say it’s over — [8C] the photographer has been written out of the will; the court case has been dropped; and mother and daughter say they are united again.
选项 A、Liliane Bettencourt is the focus of the scandal.
B、There was once friction between the mother and the daughter.
C、The photographer took advantage of Liliane Bettencourt’s mental fragility to get benefit.
D、The scandal dominated the front pages in France for weeks.
答案C
解析 综合推理题。听音后可知，新闻全篇都在报道法国女富豪，欧莱雅亿万富翁利莲·贝登科特的家庭纠纷及政治丑闻，因此其是丑闻的主角，选项[A]正确。新闻中提到，贝登科特的女儿Francoise将摄影师Francois-Marie Banier告上法庭，指控他利用年长的母亲脆弱的精神状况；而新闻最后又提到，这名摄影师是发自内心的，法庭也放弃了该案件，这对母女也表示和好如初。由此可以判断选项[C]错误，同时推断[B]“这对母女曾经不和”正确。新闻中明确提到，这桩丑闻几周以来一直位居法国媒体的首页，选项[D]也正确，因此答案为[C]。
