    Good morning. In today’s headlines, Scotland’s transport minister has warned of potentially extreme weather conditions as heavy snow is forecast across the country later this week. Orange warnings are in force for many areas for Wednesday and Thursday. (1) [The transport minister advised people in parts of Scotland covered by the orange alert to avoid travel on Wednesday.] This is what he said to us:“The orange warning may be raised to red in some areas. That is a warning for snow that has never been seen since the modern system came into place in Scotland.” The orange warning has been extended until 6 p.m. on Thursday. Trains, planes and ferries are also likely to be affected, with a wind chill that could see parts of Britain feeling as cold as -15℃. (2) [The head of road policing said, “I would urge drivers to take extra care on the roads for their journeys.] Drivers should make sure they’re prepared for their journey with warm clothing, food and drink, sufficient fuel and a charged mobile phone. There could be significant traffic delays, so please start to plan your journey now and consider if you really need to travel when conditions are this poor.”

1. What were people in parts of Scotland advised to do?

解析：C。四个选项均为动词原形词组，根据weather forecast、Evacuate和Avoid等词，推测出问题可能与所做的事情有关。录音前面部分提到，交通部长建议苏格兰部分受橙色预警影响的地区居民避免在周三出行。题干中的people in parts of Scotland和C项内容均为原词复现，故正确答案为C。

错项排除：A项利用录音开头出现的forecast作干扰，但录音说的是预计（forecast）本周晚些时候全国范围内将有大雪，并非天气预报，故A项错误。B项利用录音中出现的orange alert作干扰，但Evacuate（撤离）一词在录音中没有提到，故排除B项。D项利用录音末尾出现的food and drink作干扰，但录音说的是建议司机准备好食物和饮料等物品，并非对当地民众的建议，故D项错误。
