原文及翻譯
Sometimes I watch the weatherman on television. It is fascinating to watch him point to different areas of the country on the map. He tells us where the weather will be nice and where it will be bad. The weatherman is not always right, though. Weather reporting is not an exact science. Nothing is very exact when it comes to the weather. The weather department does a lot of research, but they can never be sure of exactly what will happen. Sometimes it looks like it will be clear, but the wind changes direction and clouds move in.
有時我看電視上的天氣預(yù)報員?？粗诘貓D上指著這個國家的不同地區(qū)，真是令人著迷。他告訴我們哪里天氣好，哪里天氣壞。不過，天氣預(yù)報員也不總是對的。天氣預(yù)報不是一門精確的科學(xué)。說到天氣，沒有什么是絕對準(zhǔn)確的。氣象部門做了大量的研究，但他們永遠(yuǎn)無法確定到底會發(fā)生什么。有時看起來天會放晴，但風(fēng)改變了方向，云就進(jìn)來了。
The weatherman can warn people if there is a chance of a hurricane or tornado. The weatherman can also warn people of floods. Sometimes entire towns have to be evacuated because of bad weather. It is important to be aware of the weather. For example, it is not good to be caught in the middle of a field when there is going to be a thunderstorm. You might want to take extra precautions if there is going to be a heavy snowstorm. You would need to be in a secure place. If a hurricane or tornado was predicted, you might want to cancel a picnic if you knew that it would rain that day.
天氣預(yù)報員可以警告人們是否有可能發(fā)生颶風(fēng)或龍卷風(fēng)。天氣預(yù)報員也可以警告人們洪水。有時，由于天氣惡劣，整個城鎮(zhèn)都必須撤離。注意天氣是很重要的。例如，當(dāng)雷雨即將來臨的時候，被困在田野中間是不好的。如果有一場暴風(fēng)雪，你可能需要采取額外的預(yù)防措施。你需要待在一個安全的地方。如果預(yù)報有颶風(fēng)或龍卷風(fēng)，如果你知道那天會下雨，你可能會想取消野餐。
The weather affects us in so many ways. Some people are really affected by dull, cloudy days. If there are no sunny days, they become very depressed. Heavy air pressure can cause some people to have headaches. Weather affects all of us in one way or another. It is always a topic of conversation. People often say things like, "Hello, it's a beautiful day today!" Often we plan our lives and activities around the weather. So, if you are planning on walking home tonight, keep an eye on the sky. Are those rainclouds up there? You might need an umbrella.
天氣在很多方面影響著我們。有些人真的很受沉悶陰天的影響。如果沒有晴天，他們就會變得非常沮喪。高壓會導(dǎo)致一些人頭痛。天氣以這樣或那樣的方式影響著我們所有人。這一直是人們談?wù)摰脑掝}。人們經(jīng)常這樣說:“你好，今天天氣真好!”我們經(jīng)常根據(jù)天氣來計劃我們的生活和活動。所以，如果你打算今晚步行回家，留意一下天空。天上有雨云嗎?你可能需要一把傘。
