ImportantwordsandsentencesWeatherwordsIfwintercomeswillspringbefaraway冬天已經來了，春天還會遠嗎？是英國詩人雪萊《西風頌》中的詩句It’srainingcatsanddogs.(We'rehavingaheavyrain.同樣也是雨下得很大)。It’snotheat;itisthehumidityIt’srainingbucket傾盆而下.

It‘sburningupoutthere.外面熱得跟火爐似的。Wehadadownpour.我們剛遇到了一場傾盆大雨

5.It‘sjustsprinkling.只是在下毛毛雨而已。毛毛雨或是毛毛雪我們都可以用drizzle和sprinkle這兩個動詞來表示。Drizzle這個字就是氣象術語里下毛毛雨的意思，而sprinkle雖然是撒的意思，但也常被用來形容毛毛雨，常聽到的用法就是"It'sdrizzling."或是"It'ssprinkling."。另外還有一個說法叫scatteredrain，它指的是零零星星的降雨"Wehavetocancelthetrackandfieldcontestbecauseofthescatteredrain."因為零星的降雨所以我們必須取消田徑賽。atmosphere大氣；空氣；氣氛beastly令人討厭的blowhard刮大風breezy有微風的clearup多云的；陰天的；陰沉的damp潮濕的humitydownpour傾盆大雨drought干旱fair晴朗的；轉晴的freeze結冰gale大風gustofwind陣風haze薄霧lightning閃電mild氣溫適中的nasty令人不快的，討厭的overcast陰天的rainfall降雨；降雨量sandstorm沙暴sleet下雨雪；下凍雨；下雨夾雪snowflake雪花sultry悶熱的；酷熱awful糟糕的blowdust揚沙boiling沸騰的chilly寒冷的cyclone旋風；颶風；暴風；龍卷風dew露水drizzle下毛毛雨dull陰天的foggy濃霧的frosty結霜的，嚴寒的gloomy陰沉的hail冰雹；下冰雹hurricane颶風；強熱帶風暴meteorology氣象學；氣象狀態(tài)mist薄霧oppressive天氣悶熱的precipitation降水；降水量rotten壞的；惡劣的scorching灼熱的snowfall降雪；降雪量splendid極好的sunny陽光充足的tempest暴風雨tornado內陸龍卷風warmandnice暖洋洋的whirlwind旋風thunder雷聲；打雷typhoon臺風Celsius['selsi?s]攝氏度/Fahrenheit['f?r?hait]華氏的
