No one can change the weather. Nobody can control the weather. But if we read correctly the signs
around us, we can tell what the more important changes in the weather will be. This way of telling what
the weather will be like on the following day or two is called weather forecasting. For many centuries and
in all countries, people have studied the weather and tried to make weather forecasting. Rings around the
sun are a sign of coming rain. Many people feel their joints hurt in their bones if wet weather is coming.
Some birds fly high if fine weather is coming, but they fly near the ground if rainy or stormy weather is
on the way. It is probably because of the insects (昆虫) which they are hunting that they fly low. If you
see a rainbow (彩虹) during rainy weather, this is a sign that the weather will become clear and fine. Such
rainbows come in the evening. If the stars twinkle clearly at night, then fine weather will continue. If a fog
appears in the morning just above a river, then the day will be warm. If the sunset is mostly red in color,
then the following day will be fine. If a rainbow appears in the morning, rainy weather will probably come.
Most of the above sayings have been made by the people who have used their eyes and brains to make
weather forecasting.

A. is a sign of coming rain

C. because they are ill

     Many teenagers feel that the most important people in their lives are their friends. They believe that their
family members, and in particular (尤其是) their parents, don"t know them as well as their friends do. In large
families, it is quite often for brothers and sisters to fight with each other and they can only go to their friends

     It is very important for teenagers to have one good friend or a circle of friends. Even when they are not
with their friends, they usually spend a lot of talking among themselves on the phone. This communication
