After one night of wind and showers, How many are the fallen flowers! (Translated by Xu Yuanchong) This poem was written by Meng Haoran (689~740), who lived during the Tang Dynasty. It might be one of the most famous poems about spring in China. People like to read it when they wake up on a spring morning. Meng didn’t directly (直接地) say how much he loved spring. Instead, he wrote about the details (细节) of the season: the birds, wind, rain showers and fallen flowers. By describing these things, Meng showed us the joy he felt during spring time.

Every season is beautiful in its own way. Let’s have a look! Spring During springtime, the daylight hours become longer. It gets warmer and sunnier. It might be windy and rainy sometimes. Trees and plants start to grow. People like having picnics and flying kites in this season. Summer The hottest season of the year is summer. The sun shines brightly in the sky and the days are long. During this time of the year, the trees are full of leaves. The weather is hot and sunny. So it’s the best time to go to the beach! Autumn It is also called fall. When it comes, the days become shorter. The leaves begin to fall from the trees, and there are piles of leaves on the ground. Also, the temperatures begin to drop. It gets a little bit colder every day. Autumn is known in some parts of the world as the harvest season because this is when most crops are ready to be harvested. Winter It’s the coldest time of the year! The days are short and the nights are long. Plants and trees stop growing. Some animals, like bats and bears, find places to hide and sleep. This is called hibernation. It snows in some places, and in others, it’s the rainfall season.

The UAE has four seasons—spring, summer, autumn and winter. But some people say that there are only two seasons in the UAE—the hot season and the very hot season. Why? The summer is very hot. It is from June to September. The average (平均) temperature is over 40℃. Spring is also hot and it is from March to May. Winter, December to February, is still a little hot. The average temperature is about 27 or 28℃ in the middle of the day. In summer, people in the UAE are unwilling to go out during the day. They usually stay in their houses and other air-conditioned (有空调的) rooms. Even at night, the hot air also makes it difficult to stay outdoors. Winter is the best time to visit the UAE because you can spend time outdoors. This is also the season for rain. But usually, it does not rain for a long time. There may also be heavy fog in the morning. 1．What can we learn from Paragraph 1? A．Many people like the UAE. B．There are two seasons in the UAE. C．The weather in the UAE is hot. D．Winter is the best time to visit the UAE. 2．What does the underlined word “unwilling” mean in Chinese? A．不在乎的 B．不愿意的 C．不紧张的 D．不畏惧的 3．The passage is mainly about ________. A．when to visit the UAE B．the weather in the UAE C．the history of the UAE D．the two seasons in the UAE In spring, China has warm weather. The average temperature during the daytime is 13 degrees Celsius (摄氏度) and 3 degrees Celsius at night. In the North, spring comes late and lasts for less than three months. And in cities like Beijing, there isn’t a clear difference between spring and winter. In Southern China, spring gets gradually warmer and the daytime becomes longer. Opposite of the North, the South experiences a beautiful spring although with a bit of rain here and there. During summer, June and July are the hottest months in China. The places that experience the true summer heat the most are cities. In August, the temperature starts to ________ in preparation for autumn. But perhaps summer is better known in China not for its heat but for its wetness. Summer is the main time in China for typhoons and summer rain. Autumn lasts from September to November in China and is one of the most amazing seasons. From beautiful views to perfect weather, autumn is one of the best times to travel. On average, the daily temperature during fall never exceeds 26 degrees Celsius in September, 20 degrees Celsius in October and 10 degrees Celsius in November in Beijing. In China, winter is from December to February. It’s a bit warmer in Southern and Central China than in the North. There’s little snow in winter outside Northern China. The temperature almost always feels colder than it actually is. What’s known as Tropical (热带的) China is in the very south of the country, and there, winter almost doesn’t exist. 1．What do we know from the last sentence of the first paragraph? A．The North doesn’t rain in spring. B．It may rain heavily in the South in spring. C．The South is as beautiful as the North.

No one knows what the weather is going to be like in the future, but many people think there are going to be some differences. According to the scientists, one difference is that in many places it’s going to be much hotter and it’s going to rain less. Some countries in Africa are going to become very dry all year round, and people can hardly find food and water. In Southern Europe and the United States, it’s going to be less easy for plants to grow. People there are also going to have problems finding food in the future. No one knows how much warmer it is going to be, but scientists say that the change is going to be at least 2℃. They say that the ice in the Arctic (北极) is going to melt in the next years and a lot of the animals there are going to die. There is also going to be more water in the sea, so cities near the sea are going to disappear.   Another difference is that there are going to be more hurricanes and typhoons (飓风和台风). Scientists say they are going to happen all over the world, and many people are going to lose their homes.    The earth is our home. Everyone should play a part in saving the earth. 1．Scientists think it will be ________ for people to find food and water in some countries in Africa. A．unlucky B．difficult C．common D．easy 2．The underlined word “melt” in the third paragraph means ________.

A．A report from scientists. B．The differences in the future. C．The food and water in the future. D．The changes of the weather in the future. 5．What’s the structure of this passage? A． B． C． D． 能力综合实践5篇 In Britain, people usually begin their talks with the weather. For example, they will say “It’s a fine day, isn’t it?” “Do you think it will rain?” Many people believe (相信) that they are able to tell what the weather will be like. But they never agree with each other. One man may say, “How cloudy (阴的) it is now! It’s going to rain.” Another man will say, “No, it’s going to be fine later.” People always hope for the weather they want. For example, when a farmer needs water, he looks for something to tell him it’s going to rain. When a man wants to travel, he is sure the weather will be fine soon. Now almost everyone listens to the weather report. It doesn’t always tell us the weather we want, and it only tells us what the weather will be like. But sometimes it makes mistakes. 根据短文内容，选择正确答案。 1．People in ________ begin their talks with the weather. A．China B．America C．England D．Japan 2．Most people don’t agree with ________ about the weather. A．yourselves B．themselves C．himself D．each other 3．________ listen(s) to the weather report. A．All the people B．Everyone C．Each of the people D．Most people 4．The weather report is ________ right. A．always B．not always C．never D．seldom 5．The passage mainly tells us something about ________. A．sports B．music C．weather D．culture Different weather makes people feel different. It influences health, intelligence (智力) and feelings. In August, it is very hot and wet in the southern part of the United States. People there have heart trouble and other kinds of health problems during this month. In the Northeast and the Middle West, it is very hot at some times and very cold at other times. People in these states have more heart trouble after the weather changes in February or March. The weather can also influence intelligence. For example, in a 1983 report by scientists, IQ (智商) of a group students was very high when a very strong wind came, but after the strong wind, their IQ was 10% below. The wind can help people have more intelligence. Very hot weather, on the other hand, can make it lower. Students in many schools of the United States often get worse on exams in the hot months of the year (July and August). Weather also has a strong influence on people’s feelings. Winter may be a bad time for thin people. They usually feel cold during these months. They might feel unhappy during cold weather. But fat people may have a hard time in hot summer. At about 18°C, people become stronger. Low air pressure (气压) may make people forgetful. People leave more bags on buses and in shops on low-pressure days. There is a “good weather” for work and health. People feel best at a temperature of about 18 centigrade (摄氏度). Are you feeling sad, tired, forgetful, or unhappy today It may be the weather’ s problem. 1．The underlined word “influence” in the passage means ________ in Chinese. A．决定 B．管理 C．破坏 D．影响 2．A report shows that people may have more intelligence when ________ comes. A．Rain B．a strong wind C．very hot weather D．low air pressure 3．People living in the Northeast of America may have more heart trouble ________.

A．Thin people might feel tired in cold weather. B．Fat people may feel hard at about 18℃. C．Students in America often do worse on exams on very hot days. D．A person may have a worse memory on high- air- pressure days. 5．The passage most probably comes from ________. A．a storybook B．an advertisement C．a travel magazine D．a newspaper Cold air swept across the north part of China in the first week of November. At the same time, a global (全球的) meeting on climate (气候) change was held in Scotland. There, leaders around the world tried to control global warming. Why are we experiencing such a cold winter on a warming planet? The cold winter and global warming, two opposite facts, are not contradictory. Because of the warming climate, the temperature in winter in China has risen by 0. 41° C every ten years since 1961. But in some places, it has also been pretty low. Global warming has changed Earth’s air circulation (循环) and the weather. For example, in October, La Nina affected (影响) China. It was caused by strong winds from the Pacific Ocean. ________. Another reason for the cold weather is the warming Arctic (北极) . It is warming almost three times as fast as any other places on Earth. Will the winter be much colder? It’s reported that a cold winter is likely. Northern China will probably see more snow, and southern China will see less rain. 1．Why did the leaders from the world come to Scotland to have a meeting?

B．It brought more warm air to China. C．It was a kind of common weather. D．It made the temperature rise quickly. A new and exciting way of doing weather forecasts is here! China’s television station now uses high-tech simulations (虚拟) to create realistic scenes in the studio. In a recent video about Super Typhoon Yagi, people watched as strong winds blew the weather reporter’s umbrella away and a “tree” was uprooted. This new way of forecasting weather helps people understand how serious storms can be. China Media Group Mobile made this video to warn people about the dangers of Super Typhoon Yagi and to tell them how to stay safe. But people were surprised by how real the video looked. The weather reporter started by talking about the weather. Then, she moved to a street with heavy winds and rain, created by extended (拓展) reality (XR) technology. XR is a group of technologies that includes augmented (增强) reality (AR), virtual (虚拟) reality (VR), and mixed reality (MR). The video showed different things that could happen during a typhoon, like trees falling and umbrellas blown away. It made people feel like they were really there, experiencing the typhoon. With XR technology, the scenes looked real and helped people learn about the dangers of extreme (极端的) weather. Many people who watched the video said they loved the new way of doing weather forecasts because it helped them understand better. Super Typhoon Yagi was the strongest autumn typhoon to hit the Chinese mainland since 1949. It caused a lot of damage and problems for people. The new way of doing weather forecasts helps people see how serious extreme weather can be. 1．What happened to the weather reporter’s umbrella in the weather forecast video? A．It turned inside out. B．It broke in the wind. C．It flew out of her hand. D．It didn’t open. 2．What new technology is being used for weather forecasts in China? A．Virtual Reality (VR) B．Augmented Reality (AR). C．Mixed Reality (MR). D．Extended Reality (XR). 3．What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 4 mean? A．The weather reporters. B．The people who watched the video. C．The people in the video. D．The China Media Group Mobile. 4．What was the purpose of the Super Typhoon Yagi weather forecast video? A．To warn people about the dangers of the typhoon. B．To show off the power of XR technology. C．To make people happy with new technology. D．To show us the strongest autumn typhoon. 5．What’s the best title for the text? A．The development of XR technology B．The new way of doing weather forecasts C．The ability of the weather reporter D．The dangers of Super Typhoon Yagi Different weather makes people feel different. It has an influence (影响) on people’s health, intelligence (智力) and feelings. In August, it is always hot and wet in the southern part of the United States. People there have heart trouble and other kinds of health problems during this month. In the Northeast and the Middle West, it is very hot at some times and very cold at other times. The weather can also influence intelligence. For example, the IQ (智商) of students was very high when a very strong wind came, and it can help people have higher intelligence. Very hot weather makes students in many schools of the United States often get bad grades in exams in July and August. Weather also has a strong influence on people’s feelings. Winter may be a bad time for thin people. They usually feel cold during these months. They might feel unhappy during cold weather. But fat people may have a hard time in hot summer. At about 18℃, people feel well. Are you feeling good, tired, or unhappy today? It may be the weather’s problem. 1．What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refer to (指的是)? A．Health. B．Wind. C．IQ. D．Weather. 2．Why do students in the United States usually get bad grades in exams in July and August? A．Because they have high IQ. B．Because the weather is very hot.

Instead, he wrote about the details (细节) of the season: the birds, wind, rain showers and fallen flowers. By describing these things, Meng showed us the joy he felt during spring time. Moreover, Meng chose to write about the sounds of spring. These sounds make readers picture spring using their own imagination (想象). 1．What was the weather like the whole evening in the poem? A．Windy and sunny. B．Windy and rainy. C．Cloudy and rainy. D．Windy and snowy. 2．What does the poet write about in his poem? ①Rain showers    ②Greener grass    ③Sounds of spring    ④Fallen flowers A．①②③ B．②③④ C．①②④ D．①③④ 3．What can be the best title of the poem in English?

Each season lasts about three months. Every season is beautiful in its own way. Let’s have a look! Spring During springtime, the daylight hours become longer. It gets warmer and sunnier. It might be windy and rainy sometimes. Trees and plants start to grow. People like having picnics and flying kites in this season. Summer The hottest season of the year is summer. The sun shines brightly in the sky and the days are long. During this time of the year, the trees are full of leaves. The weather is hot and sunny. So it’s the best time to go to the beach! Autumn It is also called fall. When it comes, the days become shorter. The leaves begin to fall from the trees, and there are piles of leaves on the ground. Also, the temperatures begin to drop. It gets a little bit colder every day. Autumn is known in some parts of the world as the harvest season because this is when most crops are ready to be harvested. Winter It’s the coldest time of the year! The days are short and the nights are long. Plants and trees stop growing. Some animals, like bats and bears, find places to hide and sleep. This is called hibernation. It snows in some places, and in others, it’s the rainfall season.

The UAE has four seasons—spring, summer, autumn and winter. But some people say that there are only two seasons in the UAE—the hot season and the very hot season. Why? The summer is very hot. It is from June to September. The average (平均) temperature is over 40℃. Spring is also hot and it is from March to May. Winter, December to February, is still a little hot. The average temperature is about 27 or 28℃ in the middle of the day. In summer, people in the UAE are unwilling to go out during the day. They usually stay in their houses and other air-conditioned (有空调的) rooms. Even at night, the hot air also makes it difficult to stay outdoors. Winter is the best time to visit the UAE because you can spend time outdoors. This is also the season for rain. But usually, it does not rain for a long time.

The average temperature during the daytime is 13 degrees Celsius (摄氏度) and 3 degrees Celsius at night. In the North, spring comes late and lasts for less than three months. And in cities like Beijing, there isn’t a clear difference between spring and winter. In Southern China, spring gets gradually warmer and the daytime becomes longer. Opposite of the North, the South experiences a beautiful spring although with a bit of rain here and there. During summer, June and July are the hottest months in China. The places that experience the true summer heat the most are cities. In August, the temperature starts to ________ in preparation for autumn. But perhaps summer is better known in China not for its heat but for its wetness. Summer is the main time in China for typhoons and summer rain. Autumn lasts from September to November in China and is one of the most amazing seasons. From beautiful views to perfect weather, autumn is one of the best times to travel. On average, the daily temperature during fall never exceeds 26 degrees Celsius in September, 20 degrees Celsius in October and 10 degrees Celsius in November in Beijing. In China, winter is from December to February. It’s a bit warmer in Southern and Central China than in the North. There’s little snow in winter outside Northern China.

According to the scientists, one difference is that in many places it’s going to be much hotter and it’s going to rain less. Some countries in Africa are going to become very dry all year round, and people can hardly find food and water. In Southern Europe and the United States, it’s going to be less easy for plants to grow. People there are also going to have problems finding food in the future. No one knows how much warmer it is going to be, but scientists say that the change is going to be at least 2℃. They say that the ice in the Arctic (北极) is going to melt in the next years and a lot of the animals there are going to die. There is also going to be more water in the sea, so cities near the sea are going to disappear.   Another difference is that there are going to be more hurricanes and typhoons (飓风和台风). Scientists say they are going to happen all over the world, and many people are going to lose their homes.    The earth is our home. Everyone should play a part in saving the earth. 1．Scientists think it will be ________ for people to find food and water in some countries in Africa.

They say that the ice in the Arctic (北极) is going to melt in the next years and a lot of the animals there are going to die.（没人知道会变暖多少，但科学家说这种变化至少会达到2摄氏度。他们说北极的冰在未来几年将会融化，那里的很多动物将会死亡。）”，结合常识可知，气温升高，冰会变成水，所以“melt”意思是变成水，故选A。 3．推理判断题。根据文章“There is also going to be more water in the sea, so cities near the sea are going to disappear.（海里的水也会更多，所以沿海城市将会消失。）”可推知，住在一些沿海城市的人们将不得不离开他们的家，故选D。 4．主旨大意题。文章开篇提到没人知道未来天气什么样，但很多人认为会有一些不同，接着从气温、降水、北极冰、飓风和台风等方面讲述未来天气的变化，所以主要是关于未来天气的变化，故选D。 5．篇章结构题。文章第一段总述未来天气会有变化；第二、三、四段分别从不同方面阐述未来天气变化及影响；第五段总结呼吁大家保护地球，是“总—分— 总”结构，与选项A的结构相符，故选A。 能力综合实践5篇 In Britain, people usually begin their talks with the weather. For example, they will say “It’s a fine day, isn’t it?” “Do you think it will rain?” Many people believe (相信) that they are able to tell what the weather will be like. But they never agree with each other. One man may say, “How cloudy (阴的) it is now! It’s going to rain.” Another man will say, “No, it’s going to be fine later.” People always hope for the weather they want. For example, when a farmer needs water, he looks for something to tell him it’s going to rain. When a man wants to travel, he is sure the weather will be fine soon. Now almost everyone listens to the weather report. It doesn’t always tell us the weather we want, and it only tells us what the weather will be like. But sometimes it makes mistakes. 根据短文内容，选择正确答案。 1．People in ________ begin their talks with the weather. A．China B．America C．England D．Japan 2．Most people don’t agree with ________ about the weather. A．yourselves B．themselves C．himself D．each other 3．________ listen(s) to the weather report. A．All the people B．Everyone C．Each of the people D．Most people 4．The weather report is ________ right.

But they never agree with each other.”可知，很多人相信自己能判断天气将会如何。但他们彼此之间从来没有达成过一致。故选D。 3．细节理解题。根据第四段“Now almost everyone listens to the weather report.”可知，现在几乎所有人都会听天气预报，almost everyone“几乎所有人”更接近Most people“大多数人”，强调“接近全部但非绝对”，准确体现了“大部分人都有听天气预报的习惯”这一含义，避免用“所有人”造成绝对化表述。故选D。 4．推理判断题。根据最后一段“But sometimes it makes mistakes.”可知，有时它会出错；据此可以推断，天气预报并不总是正确的。故选B。 5．主旨大意题。通读全文，文章从头至尾都在围绕英国的“天气”以及人们与之相关的行为 (谈论、预测、收听预报) 展开，而运动、音乐以及文化均与文章核心内容无关。故选C。 Different weather makes people feel different. It influences health, intelligence (智力) and feelings. In August, it is very hot and wet in the southern part of the United States. People there have heart trouble and other kinds of health problems during this month. In the Northeast and the Middle West, it is very hot at some times and very cold at other times. People in these states have more heart trouble after the weather changes in February or March. The weather can also influence intelligence. For example, in a 1983 report by scientists, IQ (智商) of a group students was very high when a very strong wind came, but after the strong wind, their IQ was 10% below. The wind can help people have more intelligence. Very hot weather, on the other hand, can make it lower. Students in many schools of the United States often get worse on exams in the hot months of the year (July and August). Weather also has a strong influence on people’s feelings. Winter may be a bad time for thin people. They usually feel cold during these months. They might feel unhappy during cold weather. But fat people may have a hard time in hot summer. At about 18°C, people become stronger. Low air pressure (气压) may make people forgetful. People leave more bags on buses and in shops on low-pressure days. There is a “good weather” for work and health. People feel best at a temperature of about 18 centigrade (摄氏度). Are you feeling sad, tired, forgetful, or unhappy today It may be the weather’ s problem. 1．The underlined word “influence” in the passage means ________ in Chinese. A．决定 B．管理 C．破坏 D．影响 2．A report shows that people may have more intelligence when ________ comes. A．Rain B．a strong wind C．very hot weather D．low air pressure 3．People living in the Northeast of America may have more heart trouble ________.

A．Thin people might feel tired in cold weather. B．Fat people may feel hard at about 18℃. C．Students in America often do worse on exams on very hot days. D．A person may have a worse memory on high- air- pressure days. 5．The passage most probably comes from ________. A．a storybook B．an advertisement C．a travel magazine D．a newspaper 【答案】1．D 2．B 3．B 4．C 5．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了不同天气对人们的健康、智力和情绪的影响。 1．词句猜测题。根据文章第1段“Different weather makes people feel different. It influences health, intelligence and feelings.”结合选项可知，不同的天气使得人们的感受不同，由此可知，天气会影响健康、智力和情绪。influencey意思是“影响”。故选D。 2．细节理解题。根据文章第3段“IQ of a group students were very high when a very strong wind came”可知，强风来临时学生的智商会更高。故选B。 3．细节理解题。根据文章第2段“In the Northeast and the Middle West, it is very hot at some times and every cold at other times. People in these states have more heart trouble after the weather changes in February or March.”可知，美国东北部的人在2月或3月天气变化时更容易出现心脏问题，这两个月份是春季来临的时间。故选B。 4．细节理解题。根据文章第3段“Students in many schools of the United States often get worse on exams in the hot months of the year (July and August).”可知，美国学生在炎热的7月和8月考试表现更差。故选C。 5．推理判断题。文章以科学事实和数据说明天气对人的影响，属于科普类文章，最可能出自报纸的科学或健康版块。故选D。 Cold air swept across the north part of China in the first week of November. At the same time, a global (全球的) meeting on climate (气候) change was held in Scotland. There, leaders around the world tried to control global warming. Why are we experiencing such a cold winter on a warming planet? The cold winter and global warming, two opposite facts, are not contradictory. Because of the warming climate, the temperature in winter in China has risen by 0. 41° C every ten years since 1961. But in some places, it has also been pretty low. Global warming has changed Earth’s air circulation (循环) and the weather. For example, in October, La Nina affected (影响) China. It was caused by strong winds from the Pacific Ocean. ________. Another reason for the cold weather is the warming Arctic (北极) . It is warming almost three times as fast as any other places on Earth. Will the winter be much colder? It’s reported that a cold winter is likely. Northern China will probably see more snow, and southern China will see less rain. 1．Why did the leaders from the world come to Scotland to have a meeting? A．To discuss the reasons of cold weather. B．To try to deal with global warming. C．To discuss the results of cold weather. D．To discuss the reasons of global warming. 2．What does the underlined word “contradictory” mean? A．相同的 B．相似的 C．对立的 D．和谐的 3．Which can show the relationship between the year (x) and the degree of temperature growth (y) since 1961? A． B． C． D． 4．What caused La Nina according to the passage?

B．It brought more warm air to China. C．It was a kind of common weather. D．It made the temperature rise quickly. 【答案】1．B 2．C 3．C 4．C 5．A 【导语】本文介绍了全球变暖的同时冬天却更冷了这一现象出现的原因。 1．细节理解题。根据第一段“There, leaders around the world tried to control global warming.”可知，世界各国领导人在苏格兰开会的目的是应对全球变暖的问题；结合选项，故选B。 2．词句猜测题。根据“The cold winter and global warming, two opposite facts,”可知，寒冷的冬天和全球变暖是两个相反的事实；由划线词前的“not”可知，这两个相反的事实并不是对立的；因此“contradictory”表示“对立的”。故选C。 3．推理判断题。根据“Because of the warming climate, the temperature in winter in China has risen by 0. 41°C every ten years since 1961.”可知，自1961年以来，中国每十年冬天的平均温度增加了0. 41°C。则自1961年以来的年份差为x-1961；年份和温度增长之间的关系为y=（x-1961）/10×0.41。故选C。 4．细节理解题。根据“For example, in October, La Nina affected (影响) China. It was caused by strong winds from the Pacific Ocean.”可知，拉尼娜现象是由来自太平洋的强风引起的。故选C。 5．推理判断题。根据“Another reason for the cold weather is the warming Arctic (北极) . ”可知，空处是引起寒冬的一个原因；再根据空前“It was caused by strong winds from the Pacific Ocean.”可推知，太平洋的强风给中国带来了更多的冷空气。故选A。 A new and exciting way of doing weather forecasts is here! China’s television station now uses high-tech simulations (虚拟) to create realistic scenes in the studio. In a recent video about Super Typhoon Yagi, people watched as strong winds blew the weather reporter’s umbrella away and a “tree” was uprooted. This new way of forecasting weather helps people understand how serious storms can be. China Media Group Mobile made this video to warn people about the dangers of Super Typhoon Yagi and to tell them how to stay safe. But people were surprised by how real the video looked. The weather reporter started by talking about the weather. Then, she moved to a street with heavy winds and rain, created by extended (拓展) reality (XR) technology.

People there have heart trouble and other kinds of health problems during this month. In the Northeast and the Middle West, it is very hot at some times and very cold at other times. The weather can also influence intelligence. For example, the IQ (智商) of students was very high when a very strong wind came, and it can help people have higher intelligence. Very hot weather makes students in many schools of the United States often get bad grades in exams in July and August. Weather also has a strong influence on people’s feelings. Winter may be a bad time for thin people. They usually feel cold during these months. They might feel unhappy during cold weather. But fat people may have a hard time in hot summer.
