We are talking about hurricanes, because that is what forecasters at Colorado State University are talking about. Every year, they make predictions about the Atlantic hurricane season. It starts on June 1st and lasts through the end of November, although storms can form outside that season as well. This year, the Colorado State forecasters say we’re in for a less active season. They’re predicting 10 named storms. They think only four of those will become hurricanes. A couple of things to keep in mind here, though. One, these forecasts aren’t perfect. Last year, Colorado State predicted 16 named storms. We had 19. Two, even if just one storm makes landfall, it can still cause serious consequences. Forecasters say it’s important to prepare the same for every hurricane season.
Questions 1 and 2 will be based on the following news item.
1. When does the hurricane usually happen?
2. According to the news, which of the following statement is true?
选项 A、It starts on June 1 st and lasts through the end of November.
B、Storms usually form in winter.
C、It starts on June 1 st and lasts for one month.
D、All year round.
答案 A
解析 细节题。题目是问飓风通常什幺时候发生。eyshlisteninga中说到，“It starts on June 1st and lasts through the end of November，although stormscan form outside that season as well．”它一般从6月1日开始，持续到11月底，尽管也会在其他季节发生。故选A。其他选项的时间都不准确。
