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, but the scene cannot be fully appreciated from any advantage 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 underestimated. In serving the needs of shipping, aviation, agriculture, industry, and many other interests and fields of human activity 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.
The author implies that increased accuracy in weather forecasting will lead to________.

选项 A、greater protection of human life
B、more funds allocated to meteorological research
C、a higher number of professional forecasters
D、less-specialized forms of synoptic meteorology

答案A

解析 推理判断题。第三段第三句的后半句指出了天气预报的重要价值:在挽救人的生命财产和各种经济利益方面成效显著。由此推断,天气预报准确性的提高会更好地保护人的生命财产安全及经济成果。故A项为答案。
