Part 1: Read and Explore
No one can change the weather. But if we understand the signs(迹象) around us,we can tell the changes
in weather. This way of telling what the weather will be like on the following days is called weather forecasting(预测).
For many centuries and in all countries,people have studied the weather and tried to make weather forecasting. For example,rings around the sun are a sign of coming rain. And wet weather often makes people feel their joints hurt(关节痛).Some birds fly high if fine weather is coming,but they fly near the ground if rainy weather is on the way. If you see a rainbow during rainy weather,this is a sign that the weather will become clear and fine. Such rainbows come in the evening.
If the stars look bright and clear at night,then fine weather will continue. If a big fog appears(出现) in the morning just above a river,then the day will be warm. If the sunset(落日) is red in colour,then the following day will be fine. If a rainbow appears in the morning,rainy weather will probably come. If you know how to read these signs in the right way,you will become a good weather reporter!
Part 2: Skills Challenge
Task 1: Understand the Story(基础理解)
1. What is "weather forecasting" according to the passage?
A. Changing the weather with special tools
B. Telling the following days' weather by understanding surrounding signs

2. What does it mean if birds fly high, according to the passage? (Choose ONE)
A. Rainy weather is coming soon
B. Fine weather is on the way
C. The sun will have rings around it
D. A rainbow will appear in the evening
Task 2: In - depth Comprehension(深层理解)
3. Why can a rainbow in the evening be a sign of fine weather?
A. Because evening rainbows only form when the rain is stopping and the sky is clearing
B. Because rainbows always mean fine weather no matter when they appear
C. Because the sun sets red when there is a rainbow in the evening
D. Because fog above rivers often appears with evening rainbows
4. What is one sign that fine weather will continue, mentioned in the passage?
A. A big fog above a river in the morning
B. The sunset being red in colour
C. The stars looking bright and clear at night
D. A rainbow appearing in the morning
Task 3: Express Your Thoughts(表达观点)

Part 1: Read and Explore
No one can change the weather. But if we understand the signs(迹象) around us,we can tell the changes
in weather. This way of telling what the weather will be like on the following days is called weather forecasting(预测).
For many centuries and in all countries,people have studied the weather and tried to make weather forecasting. For example,rings around the sun are a sign of coming rain. And wet weather often makes people feel their joints hurt(关节痛).Some birds fly high if fine weather is coming,but they fly near the ground if rainy weather is on the way. If you see a rainbow during rainy weather,this is a sign that the weather will become clear and fine. Such rainbows come in the evening.
If the stars look bright and clear at night,then fine weather will continue. If a big fog appears(出现) in the morning just above a river,then the day will be warm. If the sunset(落日) is red in colour,then the following day will be fine. If a rainbow appears in the morning,rainy weather will probably come. If you know how to read these signs in the right way,you will become a good weather reporter!

A. Because evening rainbows only form when the rain is stopping and the sky is clearing
B. Because rainbows always mean fine weather no matter when they appear

4. What is one sign that fine weather will continue, mentioned in the passage?

Task 1: Understand the Story(基础理解)
1. B
解析:根据原文第一段“This way of telling what the weather will be like on the following days is called weather forecasting(预测)”可知,天气预报是通过观察周围迹象判断未来几天天气的方式,B选项符合原文定义;A(用工具改变天气)、C(只在部分国家研究天气)、D(每天记录天气)均与原文不符。
2. B
解析:原文第二段明确提到“Some birds fly high if fine weather is coming”,即鸟类高飞是晴天将至的迹象,B选项正确;A(雨天将至)是鸟类低飞的迹象,C(太阳周围有光环)、D(傍晚出现彩虹)与鸟类高飞无关,均排除。
Task 2: In - depth Comprehension(深层理解)
3. A
解析:原文第二段指出“If you see a rainbow during rainy weather,this is a sign that the weather will become clear and fine. Such rainbows come in the evening”,傍晚的彩虹出现在雨天期间,意味着雨即将停止、天空转晴,这是其成为晴天信号的原因,A选项符合逻辑;B(彩虹无论何时出现都代表晴天)错误,原文提到早晨出现彩虹可能预示雨天;C(傍晚有彩虹时太阳是红色的)、D(傍晚彩虹常伴随河面雾气)与原文无关,排除。
4. C
解析:原文第三段第一句“If the stars look bright and clear at night,then fine weather will continue”明确指出,夜晚星星明亮清晰是晴天将持续的迹象,C选项正确;A(早晨河面有大雾)预示当天温暖,B(日落呈红色)预示次日晴天,D(早晨出现彩虹)预示可能下雨,均不符合“晴天持续”的条件,排除。
Task 3: Express Your Thoughts(表达观点)
示例1:First, I will observe the natural signs around me carefully every day, such as the flight height of birds, the appearance of rainbows, and the brightness of stars at night—these are all useful clues for judging the weather mentioned in the passage. Second, I will record the relationship between these signs and the actual weather changes, so that I can better remember and use the rules of weather forecasting.
示例2:I will learn and remember the weather signs from the passage first, like "rings around the sun mean coming rain" and "a red sunset means fine weather the next day". Then, I will practice judging the weather by these signs in daily life, and compare my judgment with the actual weather to improve my ability to tell weather changes.
