As the American writer, Mark Twain once said,“Everybody talks about the weather, but nobody does 1 about it．”It is true that everyone talks about the weather; it’s the 2 subject of talk there is．
“Isn’t it a nice day?”
“Do you think it will rain?”
“I think it’s going to snow．”These are common 3 starting a talk．
Many people think that they can tell that the weather is going to be 4 ．But they hardly very agree with each other．One man says, “Do you see 5 cloudy it is in the east? It’s going to rain tomorrow．”Another man will say,“Yes, it’s cloudy in the 6 ．We are going to have fine weather tomorrow．”
People often look for the weather they want．When a farmer needs water, he looks for something to tell him it’s going to 7 ．He won’t believe anything else．When friends have a picnic(野炊)they are 8 sure the weather is going to clear up(转晴)very quickly that they sit eating their lunch 9 it rains．
Almost everyone listens to what the weatherman says．But he doesn’t 10 tell us what we want, and once in a while he makes a mistake．Still, he probably comes closer to be correct than anyone else．
