选项 A.idea
B.thought
C.opinion

答案 A
解析 名词辨析题。A项idea“主意，想法”，指在日常生活中或在学术领域中理解、推理、幻想所产生的念头。B项thought“想法，见解，思考，思维”，指通过思考，推理对事物所得出的全面系统的看法，不是凭想象所得出的结论。C项opinion“意见，看法，主张”，指某人对客观事物的认识和看法，有十分肯定的意味。D项advice“劝告，通知，建议”。根据文章he would go and see a senior chief executive with a mergers-and-acquisitions（他会去见一位有并购的高级首席执行官）可知，A项“主意，想法”符合文意。故A项为正确选项。【干扰排除】根据答案解析的分析可知，B项、C项、D项与文章语义不符，故均排除。
