问题     Temperatures (温度) around the world are going up year after year. A report shows that the ten warmest years since 1860 all happened after 1987. Of those ten, nine happened after 1990. The report also says the increase(上升) in temperature over the past 25 years is greater than that over the past 1,000 years.
    Ken Davidson, a world-famous scientist, agrees with the scientific findings that global (全球的) warming is happening just because of what people do on the earth. He says one of the most important reasons for the higher temperatures is the fact that cities are getting bigger and bigger. Studies show that cities are hotter than other places.
    Reports show that many places around the world have had unusual weather in the past few years because of global warming. Most of Asia, for example, is warmer than before, and in India hundreds of people have even died from the hot and dry weather each year. Parts of Africa have often had unusually heavy rains while other parts of Africa have had unusually dry weather. In parts of Europe, more than 100 people died from heavy rainfall in September 2002. Yet large parts of North and South America had very dry weather in the same year.
What was the weather like in most of North and South America in 2002?

选项 A、It was cold.
B、It was wet.
C、It was dry.

答案C

解析 句意:在2002年北美和南美大部分地区的天气是怎么样的?细节题。从文章最后一段最后一句“Yet large parts of North and South America had very dry weather in the same year.”可以得出,南北美大部分地区在同年都非常干旱。故C选项符合题意。
