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?
Why is it difficult to make long-term predictions for autumn?
选项
A、Forecasting machines stop functioning in hot weather.
B、The weather patterns are more changeable in the autumn.
C、Professional predictors are on vacation in autumn.
D、The forecasting center may mess up the data in autumn.
答案
B
解析
本题问“为什么对秋天进行远期天气预测很困难?”女士说“秋天的远期天气预报最为糟糕,因此那个季节天气状况变化频繁。想一想过去的三个月这里的天气有多么变化无常就明白了”。这就是说,对秋天的天气进行预测很难是因为秋天气候变化莫测。故[B]“秋天的天气状况变化更为频繁”正确。
