Ⅶ.阅读短文,根据短文内容回答问题。
The weather always changes and it is hard to know about it. But if we read the signs
around us, we can know what the weather will be like for a day or two without listening
to the weather forecast on TV. People started to study the weather and tried to make
weather forecasts in many countries long ago. Their experience is still very useful and
helpful for people now.
We can know that bad weather is coming from the following signs. First of all, rings
around the sun are a sign of coming rain. If the sunset is mostly red in colour, then the
weather will probably be rainy the next morning. Many people feel uncomfortable in their
bones because of the coming of wet weather. When the birds fly near the ground, rainy
or stormy weather is on the way.
There are also some signs for good weather. Some birds fly high, and then fine
weather is coming. If you see a rainbow on a rainy day, it will become clear and fine.
When the stars twinkle clearly at night, fine weather will go on.
Most of the above experience comes from people's lives. People use their eyes and
brains to make weather forecasts. It is a great help for making plans in their daily lives.
