Reading comprehension.      Everybody talks about the weather; it"s the most common subject of conversation, for example, "Isn"t
it a nice day?" "Do you think it will rain?" "I think it is going to snow," All this are the common ways of
starting a conversation.
     Many people think they can tell what the weather is going to be like. But they hardly ever agree with
each other. One man may say, "Do you see how cloudy it is in the east? It is going to rain tomorrow."
Another man will say, "Yes, it"s cloudy in the east.We are going to have a fine day tomorrow."
      People often look for the weather they want. When a farmer needs water,he looks for something to
tell him it is going to rain; he won"t believe anything else. When friends have a picnic, they are so sure the
weather is going to clear up very quickly that they won"t sit eating their lunch while it rains.
     Almost everyone listens to what the weatherman says. But he does not always tell us what we want,
and once in a while he makes a mistake.Still, he probably comes closer to being correct than anyone else. 1. When we start a conversation with our friends, we usually ____. [     ]
Ａ: ask their names
Ｂ: talk about the weather
Ｃ: say hello to them
Ｄ: ask their address 2. "Isn"t it a nice day?" The sentence means ____. [     ]
Ａ: he doesn"t know if it is a fine day
Ｂ: he doesn"t think it is a fine day
Ｃ: he thinks it is a fine day
Ｄ: he asks others" opinion
