Explanation: The text emphasizes the importance of good communication in response to various crises, such as terrorist attacks and pandemics. The phrase 'events with good communication' aligns perfectly with the main idea that effective communication is crucial during crises, as stated in the text. This option captures the essence of the discussion about managing crises effectively.

The text focuses on crisis situations where effective communication is vital, rather than promotional strategies. Thus, this option does not align with the text's emphasis on managing crises.
