    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.”

2. What did the head of road policing urge drivers to do?

解析：A。录音后半部分提到，道路治安负责人建议司机上路要格外小心。A项内容是对录音中take extra care on the roads的同义替换，与录音表述一致，故正确答案为A。

错项排除：录音前面部分虽提到交通部长建议避免在周三出行（avoid travel on Wednesday），但“待在一个更安全的地方”并不是道路治安负责人的建议，故排除B项。C项利用录音结尾处提到的mobile phone作干扰，但录音说的是建议司机把手机充满电，而不是多带些手机，故C项错误。D项利用录音中间部分出现的Trains作干扰，但录音说的是火车、飞机和渡船也可能受到影响，与坐火车回家无关，而且这也不是道路治安负责人给司机的建议，故D项错误。
