In Britain, just after the main television news programmes, audience figures rise. It’s weather forecast time. The BBC broadcasts 44 live forecasts a day, 433 hours of weather a year, using forecasters from the Meteorological Office. The Met. Office makes predictions about the weather seven days in advance. These are based on observations from the ground, from satellites and from radar. The observations are stored in a computer that can do up to 4,000 million calculations a second.
In Britain the weather is news. A television weather forecast often begins with an interesting fact— the town with the top temperature of the day or the place with the most rain. "The public like that kind of information," says senior forecaster Bill Giles. The BBC forecasters are professional meteorologists, but they do not have an easy job. They are the only presenters on television who do not use a script, and they cannot see the map that they are describing. Viewers are often critical, especially of female presenters. One woman left her job after rude letters and press reports about her clothes.
The British talk about the weather more than almost any other subject, so it is a surprise to discover that seventy per cent of television viewers cannot remember what they saw on the weather forecasts. "What happens is that people like watching and hearing the forecasts, but they probably only take real notice when they need to—when they’re going on holiday or wondering what the weather will be like for the tennis at Wimbledon," says one forecaster. "Or, of course, when we make mistakes!
12. How many live forecasts does BBC broadcast each day?
13. What does a television weather forecast often begin with?
14. Why did the female presenter quit her job?
15. When will the viewers pay attention to the weather report?
选项
A、A place with a heavy rain.
B、A beautiful summer resort.
C、A town with a sunny day.
D、An interesting advertisement.
答案
A
解析
原文提及“电视天气预报经常以一个有趣的事情开头——最高温的城市和下雨最多的地方。”故A正确。事实细节题。文中提到的是最热的地方,不是阳光最充足的地方,故B错误;C未提及;天气预报通常以有趣的事情开头,不是广告,故D错误。
