Artificial rainmaking has been most successful in the ______.
A.lake area
B.western slope of mountains
C.prairie lands
D.windward side of mountains
参考答案
正确答案:D
解析:题干artificial rainmaking和原文seeding是同义词,由此判断本题考查的是对第三段倒数第二句话的理解。…the seeding of super-cooled,upslope mountainous winds which have produced additional orographic precipitation on the windward side of mountain ranges.(在山脉的迎风面,通过将颗粒,如碘化银晶体,撒在云里使气流冷却,沿山坡上升,将会产生大量的人工降雨),因此选 [D] 。人工降雨时,使气流沿山坡上升而冷却产生降雨,并不一定指western slope of mountains,可排除[B] ;[A] 和[C] 与文意不符,故排除。
