At one time or another we have all stopped to think about the weather. Some days the weather is good. Some days the weather is bad. Sometimes a day that seems bad turns out better than you thought it would. There are ways of understanding the weather. One way is to study the clouds. No two clouds are ever alike. We can see the different kinds of clouds and watch them for signs of changing weather. To forecast the weather, there are three things about clouds. you should look for: movement, colour, and change. As a rule, the higher the clouds, the better the weather. And the lower the clouds, the worse the weather is likely to be. Fair-weather cumulus clouds* are another sign of good weather. These are clouds we often see on warm summer days. Clouds can tell you if a storm is on the way. If the thick, fluffy cumulus clouds get bigger early in the day, then you know it will rain. If there is a sudden, cool and dark thunder* cloud appears, then a storm is about to break out. Colours in the sky tell us about the weather, too. A golden ring around the moon warns us that a storm is on the way. A watery yellow sunset is a sign that rain may be near. The rainbow* has a message, too. The colours of the rainbow e from the sun rays shining through falling rain. If you see the sun in the east and a rainbow in the west, the rain may be ing your way. If the sun is in the west and the rainbow is in the east, the rain will be moving away from you.

(答案→)A
解析：
我们经常研究天气。有些日子天气还是不错的。有些日子天气不好。了解天气的方法就是研究云。没有两个云是一样的。我们可以看到不同种类的云，看着他们因天气转变的迹象。为了预报天气，有三件事情了解云。你应该看看：运动，颜色和变化。作为一项规则，云越高天气就越好。天朗积云是好天气的另一个标志。天空的颜色告诉我们天气状况，金黄色的光环绕月球告诫我们，一场风暴即将来临。水样黄色的夕阳即将下雨。彩虹也能预报天气。如果你看到太阳在东部，西部的彩虹，雨可能未来的路。如果太阳在西部和彩虹是在东部地区，雨水将远离你。
