问题     The science of meteorology is concerned with the study of the structure, state, and behavior of the atmosphere. The subject may be approached from several directions, hut the scene cannot be fully appreciated from any vantage point. Different views must be integrated to give perspective to the whole picture.
    One may consider the condition of the atmosphere at a given moment and attempt to predict changes from that condition over a period of a few hours to a few days ahead. This approach is covered by the branch of the science called synoptic(天气的) meteorology.
    Synoptic meteorology is the scientific basis of the technique of weather forecasting by means of the preparation and analysis of weather maps and aerological diagram. The practical importance of the numerous applications of weather forecasting cannot be overestimated. In serving the needs of shipping, aviation, agriculture; industry, and many other fields of human activities with accurate weather warnings and professional forecast advice, great benefits are reaped in the form of the saving of human life and property and in economic advantages of various kinds. One important purpose of the science of meteorology is constantly to strive, through advanced study and research, to increase our knowledge of the atmosphere with the aim of improving the accuracy of weather forecasts.
    The tools needed to advance our knowledge in this way are the disciplines of mathematics and physics applied to solve meteorological problems. The use of these tools forms that branch of the science called dynamic meteorology.
选项 A、The Basics of Dynamic Meteorology
B、The Limitations of Meteorological Forecasting
C、Approaches to the Science of Meteorology
D、New Advances in Synoptic Meteorology
答案 C
解析 主旨理解题。文章开始第一句就谈到了什么是气象学：The science of meteorology is concerned with the study of the structure，state，and behavior of the atmosphere．然后就直奔主题：The subject may be approached from several directions．(也许可以从几个途径来研究这个问题。)紧接着文章在下面三段具体谈了气象学的两个分支：synoptic meteorology(天气学)和 dynamic meteorology(动力气象学)。
