Today, let’s learn about the world’s and China’s climates, as well as their current problems. The climates are different a 1 the world. In general, places near the equator (赤道) are hot all year round, w 2 areas closer to the poles (极地) are much colder. Some areas, like deserts, receive very little rain and have long droughts. In contrast, tropical rainforests e heavy rainfall and high humidity. In recent years, extreme weather events have been more frequent, such as hurricanes and h 4 . Scientists warn that human activities, such as burning fossil fuels, are the main c 5 of these changes. If people don’t stop these harmful activities, they will finally lose their homes. China is a large country with many different climates. In the north, winters are cold with snow, and summers are warm. Beijing, the c 6 , faces freezing winter every year. The south, including Guangzhou, has mild winters and hot, r 7 summers. In eastern China, monsoons (季风) bring heavy rains, which is i 8 for farming. Western China, like Xizang, is colder because it is high up. Like the rest of the world, China has faced climate challenges nowadays, such as more unusual weather and rainfall. The government is working to reduce pollution and use more clean energy to help s 9 down climate change. By t 10 action, China hopes to protect its environment for future generations. Weather prediction has always been an important part of human life. There are several ways to p 1 the weather, and each method has its own m 2 . One common way is using meteorological instruments such as thermometers and barometers. These tools can provide accurate m 3 of temperature and pressure, which help meteorologists (气象学家) make their forecasts. In addition, weather satellites play a crucial r 4 in observing the atmosphere from space, providing real-time data about cloud patterns and storms. Another method is looking at natural signs in the environment. For example, many farmers believe that certain animal behaviours can be indicators of upcoming weather changes. If birds fly lower than usual, it might mean a storm is c 5 . Similarly, some people notice that when the sky turns a particular shade of red at sunset, it often indicates good weather the next day. Moreover, meteorologists also use computer models to simulate atmospheric conditions. These computer-generated simulations help predict weather patterns by analyzing vast amounts of data. A 6 these models can be complex, they provide valuable insights into what the weather might be like in the future. Lastly, weather forecasting often involves a combination of these methods. By using different approaches, meteorologists can increase the a 7 of their predictions. Whether it’s through technology or observing nature, understanding how to do weather prediction is e 8 for planning our daily activities and staying safe. $Unit 4 Weather and our lives 词汇专项过关 目录 词汇基础练 词汇语境练-句子 词汇语境练-语篇 词汇基础练 一、汉译英 英文 中文 英文 中文 单词 weather n. 天气；气象 temperature n. 温度；气温 degree n. 度；度数 sunshine n. 阳光；日光 sun n. 太阳 wind n. 风 cloud n. 云；云朵 fog n. 雾 rain n./v. 雨；雨水；下雨 snow n./v. 雪；下雪 sunny adj. 晴朗的 windy adj. 有风的 cloudy adj. 多云的 foggy adj. 有雾的 rainy adj. 下雨的；多雨的 snowy adj. 下雪的 extreme adj. 极端的 report n./v. 报告；报道 seasonal adj. 季节性的 activity n. 活动 travel n./v. 旅行 life n. 生活；生命 短语 weather report / forecast 天气预报 extreme weather 极端天气 seasonal activities 季节性活动 in our lives 在我们的生活中 in summer / winter 在夏天 / 在冬天 have a temperature 发烧 in the sunshine 在阳光下 heavy rain 大雨 light snow 小雪 strong wind 强风 go swimming 去游泳 have a picnic 去野餐 depend on 取决于；依靠 be different from 与……不同 because of 因为 such as 例如 outdoor activities 户外活动 indoor activities 室内活动 二、词汇拓展（单词变形） 学科网（北京）股份有限公司1 / 5 zxxk.com 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 1. weather (n. 天气) ——weatherman （天气预报员） 2. temperature (n. 温度) —— temperate (adj. 温和的；适度的) 3. degree (n. 度数) ——degree of （……的程度） 4. centigrade (adj./n. 摄氏的) —— grade (n. 等级；年级) 5. sun (n. 太阳) —— sunny (adj. 晴朗的) —— sunshine (n. 阳光) —— sunrise (n. 日出) —— sunset (n. 日落) 6. wind (n. 风) —— windy (adj. 有风的) —— windless (adj. 无风的) 7. cloud (n. 云) —— cloudy (adj. 多云的) —— cloudless (adj. 无云的；晴朗的) 8. fog (n. 雾) —— foggy (adj. 有雾的) —— fogginess (n. 有雾；模糊) 9. rain (n./v. 雨；下雨) —— rainy (adj. 下雨的) —— rainbow (n. 彩虹) —— raincoat (n. 雨衣) —— raindrop (n. 雨滴) 10. snow (n./v. 雪；下雪) —— snowy (adj. 下雪的) —— snowman (n. 雪人) —— snowball (n. 雪球) —— snowstorm (n. 暴风雪) 11. sunny (adj. 晴朗的) —— sun (n. 太阳) —— sunnier (adj. 比较级) —— sunniest (adj. 最高级) 12. windy (adj. 有风的) —— wind (n. 风) —— windier (adj. 比较级) —— windiest (adj. 最高级) 13. cloudy (adj. 多云的) —— cloud (n. 云) —— cloudier (adj. 比较级) —— cloudiest (adj. 最高级) 14. rainy (adj. 下雨的) —— rain (n./v. 雨；下雨) —— rainier (adj. 比较级) —— rainiest (adj. 最高级) 15. snowy (adj. 下雪的) —— snow (n./v. 雪；下雪) —— snowier (adj. 比较级) —— snowiest (adj. 最高级) 16. extreme (adj. 极端的) —— extremely (adv. 极端地；非常) —— extremity (n. 极端；末端) 17. report (v./n. 报告) —— reporter (n. 记者) —— reportedly (adv. 据报道) 18. season (n. 季节) —— seasonal (adj. 季节性的) —— seasonally (adv. 季节性地) 19. activity (n. 活动) —— active (adj. 活跃的) —— actively (adv. 活跃地) —— act (v. 行动) —— action (n. 行动) 20. travel (v./n. 旅行) —— traveler (n. 旅行者) —— traveling (adj. 旅行的) 21. life (n. 生活；生命) —— live (v. 生活；居住) —— living (adj. 活着的；n. 生计) —— lively (adj. 活泼的)词汇语境练-句子 一、单项选择 1．We need to take action ________ the environment before it’s too late.
