Question

d the sun and the stars
2 what does the author list at the beginning of the second paragraph?
a factors that make meteorologists successful
b different reasons why weather changes happen
c different ways that storms develop in the atmosphere
d factors that help meteorologists predict the weather

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze the question about what the author lists at the start of the second paragraph. Option D is about factors helping meteorologists predict weather, which aligns with typical content in a text about meteorology (a subfield of Natural Science, but the question is about text analysis, so Arts - Literature subfield here). The other options: A is about meteorologists' success factors (not about what's listed for prediction), B is about weather change reasons (not prediction - related), C is about storm development ways (narrower than prediction factors). So D is correct as it focuses on factors aiding weather prediction, which is likely what the author lists.

Answer:

D. factors that help meteorologists predict the weather
