W: We’d better be looking for sales on down jackets and underwear. It’s going to be really cold this winter.
M: Well, you didn’t expect it to be warm, did you?
W: Of course not, but I just heard the National Weather Service’s prediction for the next 90 days. They said it’s sup- posed to be much colder weather than usual.
M: Yeah, maybe. Personally, I think those long-range forecasts are useless.
W: Not as useless as you think.
M: Oh, come on, when you’re talking about what’s going to happen three months later, you might as well just pick a forecast out of our hat. W: Well, you are half-right. They aren’t very good for the amount of rain. But they are a lot better for temperatures especially for this time of the year.
M: Really, so I should take them seriously about the cold but not count too much on a lot of extra snow?
W: Un-huh.
M: But what did you say about this time of the year? Do some seasons really give them more problems in making forecasts?
W: Autumn is the worst, apparently weather patterns change so much then, just think how variable our weather has been the last three months.
M: Come to think of it. That’s true. It probably would have been hard to predict all those changes back in the summer. You know, you’re beginning to convince me there is more to forecast than I thought. How come you know so much about it?
W: I get my information from an expert. My sister’s a meteorologist.
On what aspect of weather forecasting is the conversation about?
What can 90-day forecasts predict rather accurately?
选项
A、The amount of rain.
B、The amount of frost.
C、The wind direction.
D、The temperature.
答案
D
解析
本题问“90天的天气预报能够比较准确预测的是什么?”根据女士的谈话“你只说对了一半。天气预报对降雨量的预测并不太好,但是对于气温的预测还是很准确的,特别是每年的这个时间”可以判断,90天的天气预报还是可以较为准确地预测气温的变化的。故[D]“温度”正确。
