   A small boy and his father are having a walk in the country. Suddenly, it begins to rain very hard. They don’t have umbrellas with them and there is no place to hide from (躲避) the rain. Their clothes are all wet and the small boy is not feeling very happy.

They are walking in the rain. The boy is thinking. “Why does it rain, Dad? It isn’t very nice, is it?” the boy asks. “Grain (谷物), fruit and vegetables can’t grow without the sunshine. They can’t grow without the rain either,” his father answers.

“Grain, fruit and vegetables are not on the road, are they? So why does it rain on the road?”

In August, it is very hot and wet in the southern part (南部) of the US. People there easily have heart trouble (心脏病) and other kinds of health problems (健康问题) during this month. In the Northeast (东北部) and the Middle West (中西部), people have heart trouble after the weather changes in February or March.

The weather can also influence (影响) intelligence (智力). For example, in a 1983 study, the IQ scores (分数) of some students were very high during a storm, but after the storm, their scores were low. Very hot weather, on the other hand, can decrease (减少) it.

Weather also influences people’s feelings. Winter may be a bad time for thin people. They usually feel cold during these months. They might feel depressed during cold weather and don’t want to do anything.

Low air pressure (气压) makes people feel free, but it also increases forgetfulness. People leave more bags and umbrellas on buses and in stores on low pressure days. There is “perfect weather” for work and health. People feel best at a temperature of about 64°F with 65 per cent humidity (湿度).
