Flash droughts are relatively new for natural disasters, and come on fast, with conditions going from normal to severely dry in less than one month. This means people have no time to prepare for the consequences, which can include dried crops, streams or wells.

A well-documented flash drought swept across the central U.S.in 2012.Normal winter and spring rainfall made people assume it would be a normal summer. But it suddenly stopped raining in May, leading to the driest summer in the Great Plains since 1895.The drought destroyed crops in six states, resulting in S35.7 billion of agricultural loss.

The 2012 disaster inspired researchers to concentrate on flash droughts. In a study published in 2021, Cook and his colleagues, using tree ring data paired with soil moisture data, reconstructed the frequency and scale of flash droughts in the Central Plains over the past 500 years. The model showed that over one-third of all flash droughts since A.D.1500 occurred in the 20th century.

However, while science is giving some insights into where and how these rapid dry outs happen, we still don't know how to predict them.

"We know the physical ingredients that cause flash droughts、but we don't really understand what triggers them in the soil column,"says Justin Man kin, a geography professor.

Part of the reason flash droughts are difficult to forecast is because there's a lack of on the ground monitoring, including real-time measurements of soil moisture. Tools like the U.S. Drought Monitor rely on satellite imagery of vegetation as well as other geophysical data.But they only provide a guess of soil moisture, rather than showing what's happening beneath the surface.

"Plants are doing the water exchange between the land and the atmosphere," explains Man kin. "That exchange is happening in what we call the root zone about a meter underground,which is difficult to monitor from a satellite."

28.The author leads in the topic by__

 A.listing some examples                B.analyzing different phenomena

C.giving a general description            D.making comparisons

29. How did Cook and his team study flash drought?

A.By doing experiments.                B.By analyzing statistics.

C.By studying the history.               D.By writing reports.

30. What's the disadvantage of the current monitoring tools?

A.They cannot track water exchange.      B.They depend on satellites and data.

C. They cannot get clear pictures.         D.They cannot predict soil moisture. 

31.What's the best title of the text?

A.How We Predict Flash Droughts         B.How Flash Droughts Form

C. What Flash Droughts Bring             D.What Flash Droughts Are
