Point
1. W hat's the weather like at Grandpa's place? (教材P42 1c)
询问天气情况一般用:How’s the weather……?=What’s the weather like……? 意为“……的天气怎么样?”weather不可数名词,意为“天气;气象”不能与不定冠词a,an连用。这里的like作介词,意为“像”。答语常为“(It’s+)表示天气状况的形容词.”或“It’s + v-ing.”。
eg:-What's the weather like today? 今天天气怎么样?
-It’s raining/snowing/blowing/thundering and lighting.
正在下雨/下雪/刮风/打雷和闪电。
-It’s sunny/windy/cloudy/rainy/snowy/fine
天气晴朗/刮风/多云/下雨/下雪/晴朗
rain v. 下雨 n. 雨水
Point
2.It’s raining and the wind is blowing hard. (教材P42 1b音频)
1.rain作动词,意为“下雨”。
eg:It hardly rained at all last summer. 去年夏天几乎没怎么下雨。
2.rain还可以作名词,意为“雨,雨水”。
eg:Don’t go out in the rain. 下雨呢,不要出去了。
3.用形容词heavy/light表示雨的大/小。
eg:What a heavy rain! 多大的一场雨啊!
4.在表示“下雨”时,可以用rain的不同形式来表达。
eg:There is rain in Shanghai.(rain作名词,表示“雨”) =It is rainy in Shanghai.(rain的形容词形式rainy表示“下雨的”) =It is raining in Shanghai.(rain的现在分词形式raining表示“下雨”)
【拓展】 snow的用法与rain相同。名词snow“雪”,动词snow“下雪”,形容词snowy“下雪的;有雪的”。

I usually read books at home in stormy weather and I usually play basketball or go climbing in sunny weather.
I don’t go out when it’s stormy because it’s not safe. I don’t stay in when it’s sunny because it’s great to do some sports on sunny days.
The weather is bad and he feels happy.
