英语讲天气的讲课稿模板
英语讲天气的讲课稿模板开场白Good morning/afternoon, class. Today, we are going to delve into a fascinating topic that affects our daily lives: the weather. Weather is not just about the sun shining or therain falling; it's a complex system that influences our mood, activities, and even our health. Let's explore this together.引入主题Weather is the state of the atmosphere at a particular time and place, including temperature, humidity, precipitation, wind, and visibility. Understanding weather patterns is essential for planning various activities, from simple daily routines to complex operations like agriculture and aviation.词汇讲解Before we proceed, let's go over some basic weather-related vocabulary. We will discuss terms such as:- Sunny- Cloudy- Rainy- Snowy- Windy- Thunderstorm- Humidity- Temperature天气现象解释Now, let's talk about different weather phenomena and how they occur.- Sunny: When the sun is shining brightly and there are no clouds blocking its rays.- Cloudy: When the sky is covered with clouds, reducing the amount of sunlight that reaches the ground.- Rainy: When there is precipitation in the form of liquid water droplets.- Snowy: When precipitation occurs as ice crystals, usually when the temperature is below freezing.- Windy: When there is a significant movement of air in the atmosphere.- Thunderstorm: A storm characterized by the presence of lightning and its acoustic effect of thunder.温度与湿度Temperature and humidity are two critical factors in weather. Temperature measures how hot or cold the air is, usually in degrees Celsius or Fahrenheit. Humidity refers to the amount of water vapor in the air and is often expressed as a percentage.天气预报Forecasting the weather is an essential part of meteorology. Meteorologists use various tools and data to predict weather conditions. Let's discuss how weather forecasts are made and the common phrases used in weather reports.- Highs and lows: Referring to the expected maximum and minimum temperatures.- Chance of precipitation: The likelihood of rain or other forms of precipitation.- Wind speed and direction: How fast the wind is blowing and from which direction.实践活动To better understand weather, let's engage in a practical activity. I will provide you with a weather report from acity of your choice. Your task is to interpret the report and describe what the weather will be like in simple English.课堂互动Now, let's have a brief discussion. Share with your classmates the weather in your hometown or a place you've visited. What was the weather like? How did it affect your activities?结束语As we conclude today's lesson, remember that weather is a dynamic part of our environment. By understanding it, we can better prepare for the day ahead and make informed decisions.Keep observing and learning about the weather, and you'llfind it an integral part of your life.作业布置For your homework, I'd like you to monitor the weather for a week and keep a journal of the daily weather conditions, including temperature, precipitation, and any notable weather events. Next class, we'll share our observations and discuss any patterns or interesting findings.This template provides a comprehensive approach to teaching about weather in English, covering vocabulary, concepts, practical application, and homework for reinforcing the lesson.。

3分钟关于天气的英语演讲稿1Weather affects all of us in one way or another, directly or indirectly. For example, good weather makes us happy, bad weather makes us sick and depressed. Besides, on a fine day, we can go out for a walk or play a game in the open. On a rainy day, however, we can only stay indoors. In a word, weather is part of life for all of us. We are concerned about weather. The first thing that many of us do after getting up is to see what the weather is like. With knowledge of the weather, people can arrange work and life of the day. If it is fine, we may decide to go on a picnic. If it is cloudy, we will have to take a raincoat or an umbrella with us when we are leaving our houses. Whatever the weather may be, we tend to adjust our activities to it accordingly.In order to know what the weather will be, special people are hired to provide the information.They collect data, analyze them and predict the weather of the coming day. Such information, which is announced on the radio or on TV,is usually very accurate. Thanks to the efforts of those professionals, we can always know the weather inadvance and get prepared for it.3分钟关于天气的英语演讲稿2In the picture it is a grey day and hazy weather.The pedestrians on the road wear gauze masks and it’s hard for them to breath. But there are still so many personal cars on the road , people in cars may not wear gauze masks,I think .Hazy weather has become a frequent visitor to the weather forecast, and sunny weather become less and less.So people hate this bad,annoying,dirty weather. If we often breath such bad air，it will threaten our health. Because the bad weather cause a lot of diseases, such as respiratory disease, cardiovascular disease, cancer and so on. Hazy weather not only do damage to our life, but also blurs the sight of our eyes, even has a bad effect on our daily life.And opening windows everyday become luxurious. It’s a shock.Our heart is also covered a thick layer of soil. Living here we feel depressed.What lead to the bad weather is mostly human pollution, for example industrial exhaust gas, burning, as well as automobile exhaust in this picture.The holders of cars is surging, which bring about not only the traffic problems, but also serious pollution problems.Nature’s purifying ability is out of her range. So citizens should have such consciousness, not their own convenience, but they should advocate green travel andgive preference to public transportation. Only by doing this,can they make their own efforts to build up the blue sky once more.3分钟关于天气的英语演讲稿3lobal warming, the gradual increase of the temperature of the earths lower atmosphere as a result of the increase in greenhouse gases since the Industrial Revolution.The temperature of the atmosphere near the earths surface is warmed through a natural process called the greenhouse effect. Visible, shortwave light comes from the sun to the earth, passing unimpeded through a blanket of thermal, or greenhouse, gases composed largely of water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and ozone. Infrared radiation reflects off the planets surface toward space but does not easily pass through the thermal blanket. Some of it is trapped and reflected downward, keeping the planet at an average temperature suitable to life, about 60°F (16°C).3分钟关于天气的英语演讲稿4Beautiful China, awaited.
