主题：Weather（天气）3
句子1：Snow, like rain, can be light or heavy. Light snow can also be called snow flurries. When the snow is being blown around in the wind, we can describe it as driving snow or swirling snow. It can be wonderful to walk through fresh, powdery, newly-fallen snow – but not so nice to drive on it. So we clear the snowor plough the snow with vehicles to remove it from the roads. You can also do this manually – that’s called shoveling the snow. At the end of winter, when temperatures rise, the snow melts – it turns into water and disappears.

8. snow melts：雪融化

雪和雨一样，可轻可重。小雪也可称为snow flurries。当雪被风吹来吹去时，我们可以把它描述为driving snow（大雪）或swirling snow（旋转雪）。在新鲜的、粉状的、刚下过雪的雪中行走是一件美妙的事—但在上面开车就不太好了。因此，我们清除积雪或犁雪用清雪车把雪从马路上清除。你也可以手动完成这项工作—这叫做shoveling the snow（铲雪）。在冬季结束时，当气温上升，雪会融化—它会变成水然后消失。
句子2：Sometimes the weather is unusual for a particular time of year. For example, in the winter, you might have a day that is unseasonably warm, and in the summer, you might have a day that is unseasonably cool. When the temperature reaches an extreme, we call that a record high or a record low.
