Unit 1
Weather
Cultural BackgroundPeople talk about the weather more in Britain than in most parts of the world. Why? There
are probably two reasons. One is the uncertainty of the weather. The weather in Britain changes
very quickly. In Britain, you can even experience four seasons in a day. You may go to bed
with the stars shining brightly, and wake up with rain falling heavily. The weather in Britain is
constantly changing. Another reason is that the weather is considered a safe topic of conversation.
When you meet a person and do not know him well enough to talk about personal matters, you
can at least sound friendly by talking about the weather.
As the weather is so changeable, it is of course quite important. It plays a big part in the lives
of the British people. The British have to change their plans very often according to the weather
and this has made them good at dealing with difficulties. Every daily newspaper publishes
something about the weather. Both the radio and the television give reports on the weather several
times each day.
Listening Tips温度的符号及单位名词的读法
常用的温度单位有摄氏度和华氏度。摄氏度的英语表达是 degrees centigrade [ˈsentɪgreɪd]
或 degrees Celsius [ˈselsiəs],符号是℃;华氏度的英语表达为 degrees Fahrenheit [ˈfærənhaɪt],
符号是℉。例如:
5℃读作 five degrees centigrade。
5℉读作 five degrees Fahrenheit。
-10℃则读作 ten degrees centigrade below zero 或是 minus ten degrees centigrade。
99
Unit 1 Weather Part 2 Learning & Listening

The Snowy Day
One winter morning Peter 1 and looked out the window. Snow
had fallen during the night. It 2 everything as far as he could see.
1414
新理念交互英语听力训练教程
After breakfast he put on his snowsuit and ran outside. The snow was piled up
very high along the street to make a path for walking.
Crunch, crunch, crunch, his feet sank into the snow. He walked with his toes
pointing out, like this. He walked with his toes pointing in, like that.
Then he dragged his feet s-l-o-w-l-y to make tracks. And he found something
sticking out of the snow that made a new track. It was a stick—a stick that was just
right for smacking a snow-covered tree.
Down fell the snow “plop!” on top of Peter’s head.
He thought it would be fun to join the big boys in their snowball f ight, but he
knew he wasn’t old enough yet. So he made a smiling snowman, and he made angels.
He 3 he was a mountain-climber. He climbed up a great big
tall heaping mountain of snow and slid all the way down. He 4 a
handful of snow and another, and still another. He packed it round and firm and put
the snowball in his pocket for tomorrow. Then he went into his warm house. He told
his mother all about his 5 while she took off his wet socks. And he
thought and thought and thought about them. Before he got into bed he looked in
his pocket. His pocket was empty. The snowball wasn’t there. He felt very sad. While
he slept, he dreamed that the sun had melted all the snow away. But when he woke
up his dream was gone. The snow was still everywhere. New snow was falling! After
breakfast he called to his friend from across the hall, and they went out together into
the deep, deep snow.
Interesting Expressions

A: You aren’t talkative today. 你今天话很少。
B: Can’t you tell I’m under the weather today? 难道你看不出来我今天不舒服吗 ?
on cloud nine 乐翻天,非常开心
直接把这个短语翻译成中文是“第九层云端上”,cloud nine 用来比喻最高境界或我

He was on cloud nine after winning the competition. 赢了比赛,他非常开心。
storm out 生气地离开
storm 是风暴的意思,在这里用来形容一个人气急败坏的状态,如果你风暴般地离开
就代表气冲冲地离开。例如:

cheated on her again. 她气冲冲地离开了房间,因为她的男朋友昨晚又去了酒吧而且再次背
叛了她。
take a rain check 改期
take a rain check 起 源 于 美 国 的 棒 球 赛, 如 果 是 雨 天 的 话, 球 场 就 会 发 放“Rain
Check”,让观众可以改天看比赛或者下次再看,久而久之,这个短语就有“改期”的意思了。
例如:
Can I take a rain check? I want to see the doctor first. 我可以改期吗?我要先去看医生。

thunder 是非常吸引人的注意力的,当你抢了别人的“雷声”,也就是将众人的目光转
