請依下文回答第 46 題至第 50 題: A wet spring in Las Vegas has spawned hordes of grasshoppers so large that they are showing up on the weather radar. In viewing the radar, CNN meteorologist Allison Chinchar said it looked like there were two storms over the Vegas area: one in the north of the city (that was actual rain) and another right over Las Vegas. But the second one wasn’t moving as rain normally would, she said. “It looked as though it should be torrentially downpouring in Las Vegas,” said Chinchar. By changing the settings on the radar, meteorologists could see that the other “storm” was actually the massive hordes of grasshoppers that have settled over the city in recent days, Chinchar said. Las Vegas, like all of Nevada, has had almost twice as much rain in 2019 than normal, Chinchar said. “It appears through history that when we have a wet winter or spring, these things build up often down below Laughlin and even into Arizona,” Jeff Knight, state entomologist, said. “We’ll have grasshopper migrations about this time of the year, and they’ll move northward.” Knight said the swarms aren’t terribly unusual given the amount of rain the state has had this year. “We have records clear from the ’60s of it happening, and I have seen it ... at least four or five times in my 30-plus years,” he said. “There are some special weather conditions that trigger the migration.”

What do "these things" refer to in the passage?

AStorms.
BDeserts.
CMeteors.
DGrasshoppers.正確答案
答案與詳解
D
正確答案
根據上下文,昆蟲學家提到的 "these things" 是指因春季多雨而大量繁殖並遷徙的蝗蟲(grasshoppers)。

為什麼答案是 D

Grasshoppers (蝗蟲) 是正解。州昆蟲學家 (entomologist) 在解釋為何會有這麼多蝗蟲聚集,"these things" 即指代前文討論的主角:蝗蟲。

考點:上下文推論考點:無關選項考點:字形混淆考點:代名詞指代
