47 題至第 50 題 A slow-rolling series of storms that battered the American West this week brought snowfall and high wind on
Thursday to parts of California, where weather-weary residents have already endured lashing rain, heavy snowfall and a
destructive tornado. Since the wild weather began slogging ashore on Monday, five deaths in California and two in
Colorado have been blamed on storms. On Thursday, up to a 1 foot (30 centimeters) of snow fell on Colorado mountains,
and northern Nevada was expecting as much as 7 feet (2.13 meters) on top of the 2-3 feet (more than half a meter) that
already had fallen. Conditions were improving on Thursday in Arizona, as water levels quickly fell in a Sedona-area
creek that had fattened from a trickle into a river of mud, forcing a dozen neighborhoods to evacuate. Damage
assessments were expected to begin on Thursday.
【題組】50 According to the passage, which of the following statements about the storms is true?
(A) No residents had to leave their homes for their safety.
(B) The actual cost of this disaster was evaluated and reported.
(C) Residents of the affected states remained upbeat throughout the terrible weather.
(D) The storms did not attack the east coast of America.
