夏天是多雨的季节,或者叫雨季(rainy season),让我们先来看看各种各样的雨怎么说:
细雨:drizzle
阵雨:shower
暴雨:torrential rain
暴风雨:storm, tempest
雷雨:thunderstorm
黄梅雨:plum rain
中国人说大雨、小雨,而西方人却给雨分出轻重, 他们说 heavy rain, light rain.
雨天大家免不了要穿雨衣(raincoat)、雨鞋(rubber boots, rubbers),打雨伞(umbrella)。
下雨常给人们带来乐趣,下雨时,可以看雨点(rain drop),雨过天晴后有时能看见天上的彩虹(rainbow)。可是如果降雨量(rainfall)太大,却会造成水灾(floods),今年夏天中国南方许多地方就遭受了百年不遇(once-in-a-century)的特大洪灾,许多人都投入了抗洪斗争(flood-fighting)。不过适量的雨水是有利于植物生长的,热带雨林(tropical rain forest)里就生长着各类植物。
英语中还有许多与雨有关的习语,你可不能不知道:
rain cats and dogs 倾盆大雨
It never rains but it pours.祸不单行
save something for a rainy day 早作准备,以防不时之需
rain or shine 不管天气好坏
