79.聊聊天气（下）
范例二：Bad weather 糟糕的天气
M: So, Monica, what do you feel like doing this afternoon?
Monica，那你今天下午想做什么？
W: Actually, I had a perfect plan for this afternoon, but it is totally ruined by the sand storm. I woke up this morning and found it was sunny. So I called Lucy and asked her to go shopping with me. We were going to look for a new purse. Now it turned out to be like this. Neither of us wants to go to outside anymore.
事实上，我今天下午有一个完美的计划，但是完全被这场沙尘暴破坏掉了。今天早上起床的时候天气晴朗。所以我打电话给Lucy，叫她和我一起去购物。我们本来打算去看个新钱包的。现在变成这样。我们俩都不想走出去外面了。
M: That’s too bad. I hate sand storms too. It can be worse than any kind of bad weather.
太糟糕了。我也讨厌沙尘暴。它比任何一种坏天气还要坏。
W: What’s wrong with climate? Anyway, I think the sand storm happens more frequently these days than the years before. Can’t people do something to stop it?
气候这是怎么了？无论怎样，我觉得沙尘暴现在比前几年发生得更频繁。人们不能做一些什么来阻止它吗？
M: It is not an easy job. The government is working on it. Lots of trees have been planted in the north of the capital. Also, methods of generating rain are being used by thegovernment to fight against the drought. But of course, it will not work overnight. So, have you come out with a new plan for today?
这不是一件容易的事。政府一直都在努力。首都的南部地区已经种了很多树。政府也正采取增雨的方法来抗旱。但是，当然，这些不会很快就起作用的。所以，你有没有想好今天的新计划？
W: My new plan is to wait for the end of the sand storm and clean my apartment.
我的新计划就是等沙尘暴结束后打扫房间。
