The changing weather多变的天气

Tom:Jerry,you know one thing that I haven't been able to get used to is the changing weather. Sometimes it rains in the moming and then gets hot in the afternoon.Then in the evening,it gets cold again!I can't keep up with the fluctuation.I don't even know what to wear.
汤姆：杰瑞，有件事我一直还不习惯，那就是多变的天气。有时候早上下雨，然后下午就变热了，到了晚上又冷了。我很不适应这样的变幻无常。我甚至不知道要穿什么。

Jerry:That's what you get in a tropical region. In some climate regions,there isn't as much change throughout the day.
杰瑞：这就是热带气候的特色．在有毪气候区里，甚至一整天都不会有什么变化。

Tom:I'm really not suited for this.
汤姆：我真的不太适应这一点。

Jerry:The forecasts here are usually quite accurate.It sometimes even tells you the hour of when the weather is going to change. So pay more at-tention to the weather forecasts and you might just save yourself from a couple ofembarrassing moments.
杰瑞：这里的天气预报相当准确，有时甚至能预测天气何时会转变。所以多注意气象预报，也许就可以免去一些尴尬的时候了。
