听力[A1-03]：Weather（天气）

Hello everyone, welcome to this A1 English listening practice video. Today, we are going to talk about the weather, which is very important as it affects our daily activities.

大家好，欢迎观看这段A1级英语听力练习视频。今天我们要谈论的话题是天气——天气十分重要，因为它会影响我们的日常活动。

Let's start with the sun—it’s bright and hot; when it shines, we feel warm, and people like to go to the beach or park on sunny days, but when it’s too hot, we need to wear hats and sunglasses for protection. In winter, it’s usually cold, the temperature drops, snow is common in many places, so people wear coats, gloves, and scarves to keep warm; some enjoy winter sports like skiing or ice skating, while others prefer staying at home and drinking hot tea.

我们先从太阳说起：太阳明亮又炽热。当阳光照耀时，我们会感到温暖，晴天里人们也喜欢去海滩或公园。但如果天气太热，我们就需要戴帽子和太阳镜来做好防护。到了冬天，天气通常很冷，气温会下降，很多地方还常会下雪。所以人们会穿外套、戴手套和围巾来保暖；有些人喜欢滑雪、滑冰这类冬季运动，而另一些人则更愿意待在家里喝热茶。

Spring is a nice season with mild weather and blooming flowers, making it a good time for walks or picnics; the air is fresh and everything looks beautiful, yet it can also bring rain, so we need to carry umbrellas or raincoats when it rains. Summer is the hottest season, with many people going swimming or visiting the zoo, children playing outside with friends, and the weather being perfect for barbecues or outdoor parties; however, it can be very humid, so we need to drink plenty of water to stay hydrated.

春天是个宜人的季节，天气温和，百花盛开，非常适合散步或野餐。春天的空气清新，万物都显得生机勃勃，但这个季节也可能会下雨，所以下雨时我们需要带伞或穿雨衣。夏天是最热的季节，很多人会去游泳或逛动物园，孩子们会和朋友在户外玩耍，这样的天气也非常适合烧烤或举办户外派对。不过夏天湿度可能会很高，所以我们要多喝水，保持身体水分充足。

Autumn is cool and windy, with leaves turning yellow and falling from trees, making it a good time to visit the park and enjoy colorful leaves, and some people like to go fishing or have a picnic in the forest; but it can also be rainy, so we need to be careful not to slip on wet leaves. The weather can change quickly—one day it might be sunny, and the next day it might rain—so we should always check the weather forecast before going out to plan activities better.

秋天凉爽多风，树叶会变黄、从树上飘落，是去公园欣赏五彩斑斓树叶的好时候，有些人还喜欢去钓鱼或在森林里野餐。但秋天也可能下雨，所以我们要小心，避免在潮湿的树叶上滑倒。天气变化可能会很突然——今天可能还是晴天，明天就可能下雨。因此，出门前我们应该经常查看天气预报，以便更好地规划活动。

Let's talk about some weather-related vocabulary: the sun shines during the day, the moon comes out at night, clouds can bring rain or shade, wind can make it feel cooler or warmer, and sometimes we see thunderstorms with lightning and loud thunder. People have different preferences for the weather—some like it hot, others prefer it cold. We can’t control the weather, but we can adapt to it by wearing the right clothes and carrying necessary items to enjoy any weather.

我们来学习一些和天气相关的词汇：白天会出太阳，夜晚会有月亮；云可能会带来雨，也能遮挡阳光；风会让人感觉更凉爽或更暖和；有时还会出现雷暴，伴随着闪电和响亮的雷声。人们对天气的喜好各不相同，有些人喜欢炎热的天气，另一些人则偏爱寒冷的天气。我们无法控制天气，但可以通过穿合适的衣服、携带必要的物品来适应它，从而享受不同天气带来的乐趣。

Let's think about how the weather affects our mood: sunny days make us feel happy and energetic, while rainy days might make us feel tired or sad, but we can still find fun indoor activities like reading books, watching movies, or playing games with friends. The weather also affects animals and plants—birds sing more when the weather is nice, plants grow faster in warm and sunny conditions, but extreme weather like heavy rain or strong winds can hurt them, so we need to take care of nature and protect it from bad weather.

我们再来想想天气对心情的影响：晴天会让我们感到开心、充满活力，而雨天可能会让我们觉得疲惫或低落，但我们仍然可以找到有趣的室内活动，比如看书、看电影，或者和朋友一起玩游戏。天气对动植物也有影响：天气好的时候，鸟儿会唱得更欢；温暖晴朗的环境下，植物生长得更快。但暴雨、强风这类极端天气可能会对它们造成伤害，所以我们要爱护自然，保护自然免受恶劣天气的影响。
