问题     The science of meteorology(气象学) 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 approached from any one vantage point. Different viewpoints 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 meteorology(天气学).
    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( 高空气象图). 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 obtained 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 author implies that increased accuracy in weather forecasting will lead to______.
选项
答案greater protection of human life
解析 推断题。文章第三段第三句提到"In serving the needs... the saving of human life and property and in economic advantages of various kinds．”(通过对航海、航天、农业、工业以及很多其他领域的人类活动提供精确的天气警报和专业的预报建议，天气预报在挽救人类生命、财产和其他方面的经济领域做出了很大贡献。)根据天气预报的重要性可推断出，提高天气预报的精确度将会更好地保护人类的生活。
