正确答案:D
NewsItem4【听前预测】浏览题干和选项可知,本题与3名穆斯林男子被抓有关。听音重点为他们被抓的原因,以及该次密谋的深远影响。[28D]AcourtinLondonhasfoundthreeBritishMuslimmenguiltyofconspiracytomurderbyplottingtoblowupplanesb.undforNorthAmerica.Itwouldhavebeenthemostdevastatingattacksince9/11haditsucceeded.Prosecutorsalleged[28D]theplothadbeentosmuggleliquidbombsontoatleastseventrans-Atlanticairlinesandthendetonatethemmidair.Buttheplottershadbeenundersurveillanceandwerearrestedbeforetheycouldcarryitout.[29B]Theirarrestsledtotravelchaosandrestrictionsoncarryingliquidsontoplanesthatpersisttothisday.TheverdictswillcomeasahugerelieftotheBritishauthoritiesafterthemassiveinvestigationintotheplotandtwocostlytrials【解析】选[D]。新闻开头提到“伦敦一法庭发现三名英国穆斯林男子犯有密谋谋杀罪。这三名男子计划在飞往北美的飞机上实施爆炸行为”;后面又说“该阴谋计划向至少7架跨大西洋航班偷运液体炸弹,在半空中将其引爆。”由此看出,[D]是对原文的同义转述,同时排除[A]、[C]。[B]是对Itwouldhavebeenthemostdevastatingattacksince9/11...的错误理解。
