二、rain和snow的用法

1. rain 雨，下雨

既可以做動詞，又可以做名詞。

2.做動詞，意為“下雨”。例如：

It rains very heavily.

雨下得很大。

3.做名詞，意為“雨”，是不可數名詞。例如：

There is a lot of rain this summer.

今年夏天雨水很充沛。

注：rain的動詞形式與名詞形式能夠互相做同義句轉換。

It rained heavily yesterday.

昨天雨下得很大。

此句可變?yōu)椋篢here was heavy rain yesterday.

4.rainy是rain的形容詞形式，修飾名詞。例如：

It is a rainy year.

今年雨水多。

注：snow與rain用法相同。在英語中，如果形容雨或雪下得大時，用heavy或heavily；如果形容風大，則用strong或strongly。

三、詢問天氣的句子

英語中詢問天氣情況的句子有兩個，即How is the weather?和Whats the weather like?二者能互相變換同義句。例如：

How is the weather in Beijing?

北京的天氣怎么樣？

此句可以變?yōu)椋篧hats the weather like in Beijing？
