Question 7 is based on the conversation you have just heard.

Conversation Two

听力原文

M: (5) [Do you think dreams have special meanings?]

W: (5) [No, I don’t think they do.]

M: (5) [I don’t either, but some people do.] I would say people who believe that dreams have special meanings are superstitious, especially nowadays. In the past, during the times of ancient Egypt, Greece or China, people used to believe that dreams could foresee the future. But today, with all the scientific knowledge that we have, I think it’s much harder to believe in these sorts of things.

W: My grandmother is superstitious, and she thinks dreams can predict the future. (6) [Once, she dreamed that the flight she was due to take the following day crashed. Can you guess what she did? She didn’t take that flight.] She didn’t even bother to go to the airport the following day. Instead, she took the same flight, but a week later, and everything was fine, of course. No plane ever crashed.

M: How funny! Did you know that flying is actually safer than any other mode of transport? It’s been statistically proven. People can be so irrational sometimes.

W: Yes, absolutely. But even if we think they are ridiculous, (7) [emotions can be just as powerful as rational thinking.]

M: Exactly. People do all sorts of crazy things because of their irrational feelings. But in fact, some psychologists believe that our dreams are the result of our emotions and memories from that day. (8) [I think it was Sigmund Freud who said that] children’s dreams were usually simple representations of their wishes—things they wished would happen. (8) [But in adults, dreams are much more complicated reflections of their more sophisticated sentiments.]

W: Isn’t it interesting how psychologists try to understand using the scientific method something as bizarre as dreams? Psychology is like the rational study of irrational feelings.

7. What does the woman say about people’s emotions?

解析：D。在录音后半部分，女士提到：“情绪的力量还是可能会和理性思维的力量一样强”（emotions can be just as powerful as rational thinking）。D项是对此内容的同义转述，故为正确答案。

错项排除：录音中只提到了孩童的梦境，没有提到童年经历，故排除A项。女士提到，尽管我们认为他们很荒唐（even if we think they are ridiculous），这里的they代指的是上文提到的“不理性的人”，而不是emotions（情绪），因此B项可排除。男士提到，一些心理学家认为梦境是当天情绪和记忆的产物，没有提到“不愉快的记忆”，而且这也不是女士的观点，故C项可排除。
