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 best title for the passage is________.
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 主旨大意题。文章第一段第二句指出，气象学可以从不同的角度进行探讨，接着，第二、三、四段介绍了两种不同的气象学研究角度：天气学和动力气象学。故答案为C项。A项只提到了动力气象学，不足以概括全篇内容。B项“气象预报的局限性”和D项“天气学的新进展”文中均未提及。
