概括大意與完成句子

Did you know that before 1950, hurricanes had no names? They were simply given numbers. The first names were simply Alpha, Bravo, Charlie, etc. but in 1953, females names were given because of the unpredictability (不可預(yù)知) factor of the storms. In 1979, realizing the sexist (性別歧視的) nature of such names, the lists were expanded to include both men and women.

The main consideration of using males and females’ names for hurricanes is __________.

A、the timely (及時(shí)的) discovery

B、its uncertainty

C、sex equality

D、its connection with humans

【正確答案】 C

【答案解析】 依靠原文（利用(male, female) names作為答案線索詞）中最后一句判斷答案為C（與性別有關(guān)）。
