A
Now satellites are helping to forecast(预报) the weather. They are in space,and they can
reach any part of the world. The satellites take pictures of the atmosphere(大气),because this is
where the weather forms( 形 成 ). They send these pictures to the weather stations. So
meteorologists(气象学家)can see the weather of any part of the world. From the pictures,the
scientists can often say how the weather will change.
Today , nearly five hundred weather stations in sixty countries receive satellite pictures.
When they receive new pictures,the meteorologists compare them with earlier ones. Perhaps
they may find that the clouds have changed during the last few hours. This may mean that the
weather on the ground may soon change,too. In their next weather forecast,the meteorologists
can say this.
So the weather satellites are a great help to the meteorologists. Before satellites were
invented,the scientists could forecast the weather for about 24 or 48 hours. Now they can make
good forecasts for three or five days. Soon,perhaps,they may be able to forecast the weather for
a week or more ahead(提前).
56. Satellites travel ____.
A. in space B. above space
C. above the ground D. in the atmosphere
57. —Why do we use the weather satellites to take pictures of the atmosphere?
—Because ____. A. clouds form there
B. the weather forms there
C. the weather satellites can do it easily
D. the pictures can forecast the weather
58. Meteorologists forecast the weather ____.
A. without studying satellite pictures
B. before they receive satellite pictures
C. when they have received old satellite pictures
D. after they have compared the new satellite pictures with the earlier ones
59. Maybe we'll soon be able to forecast the weather for ____.
A. one day B. two days
C. five days D. seven days or even longer
B
In England,people often talk about the weather because they can experience four seasons in

the sun will begin to shine,and it will be sunny at this time of the day.

In some ways, you may be right. Scientists studied more than 40 years of weather data(数据)
from around the world. It shows weekend weather is different from weekday weather in some
places.
Part of the study involved(包括) 660 weather stations in the US. At more than 230 of these
places, the weather on Saturday, Sunday and Monday was different from the weather on
Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. The difference was small,but the pattern was striking enough
