（至此,學生心領(lǐng)神會。配合老師學完構(gòu)詞法,關(guān)于天氣的詞,由名詞變形容詞的規(guī)則。）
2.（讀的過程中,老師可引導學生不斷擴充句子,復習天氣預報所用句型,為下一環(huán)節(jié)天氣預報寫作打基礎(chǔ)。）
Example:
T: Read it, please.
Ss: Cloud. There is a lot of cloud in the air.（老師訂正為in the sky。）
Cloudy. It was cloudy yesterday.
T: And the temperature?
Ss: The lowest temperature is 10℃.
The highest temperature is 20℃.
（老師可用天氣預報圖作提示。）
