We can know about the weather by listening to the weather report. We can also get to know the weather in some other ways. Let’s have a look at what Mike,Mary and Jenny found on the Internet.
| Mike | When birds fly high out to the sea,we know it is a nice day because birds don’t like to fly out if it rains. When the weather is bad,birds will come back to the beach. A strong wind may come with heavy rain. Birds do not like to fly in a strong wind. They may sit in a tree when the rain is coming. |
| Mary | It is a cloudy day. The rain is coming. Chickens are not quiet and they run here and there. Frogs(青蛙)make a big noise in the pool(池塘). If it is a nice day,frogs will come out of the water. |
| Jenny | Bees can “talk” to others by dancing and a lot of bees can live very well with each other,so it is easy for them to know the change in the weather in a short time. But do you know why bees don’t go out on rainy days? That’s because they may get hurt in the rain. So now you may know this saying well：“If bees fly away,fine will be the day. ” |
We can also know the coming of rain from other animals. It’s really interesting,isn’t it? Learn more and know more from now on.
