- 一段典型的英式天气预报独白,没有对话、只有主播一个人从头讲到尾,听力难度全在"跟上信息流",不在生词量。
- 训练的是按地区+按时间轴抓信息的能力:南部/西北部/其他地方分开讲,今天/明天/周末又各自不同,稍不留神就会把地区和时间对错。
- 高频天气词汇密集出现(showers、drizzle、thundery、foggy patches),是听懂英语天气预报的必备词汇库。
- 听完能听懂英式新闻天气环节的完整结构:开场概况 → 分地区细讲 → 展望周末 → 收尾一句话总结。

听力原文 / 对话稿
Presenter: Hello and good morning! Well, we're off to a good start in the south this week, as most of the rain from the weekend has disappeared – just a few patches of cloud and maybe some showers here on the east coast. They'll all clear up by lunchtime, though. Over the next day or so, London and the area around Kent can expect a couple of isolated showers, but mostly dry through until Thursday.
It's not such good news for the north-west this week, I'm afraid: more wet weather, and not a lot of sunshine. Some of today's showers will be heavy – and even thundery in Manchester and across the Pennines. Leeds will escape the thunderstorms, with drizzle and light rain only throughout the rest of the day and tonight.
Elsewhere it becomes dry today, but with some foggy patches towards Wales. In England, tomorrow morning will see a dry, bright start in most places, with high temperatures throughout the week. We might see one or two thunderstorms appearing as the week goes on, with temperatures everywhere at 29 to 30 degrees.
By the weekend, unfortunately, the dry weather will make way for mostly cloudy skies and rain. The rain will move from Scotland, down towards the north and reach the south coast by Saturday afternoon. Temperatures, at least, will stay mostly warm at around 21 degrees for the weekend. It might feel like a nice change from the high twenties and early thirties we'll see in the week. That's all from me until tomorrow. Enjoy the mini-heatwave while you can!
[语速平稳偏快,句子之间几乎没有停顿,靠 "over the next day or so" "by the weekend" 这类时间状语切换段落]
中文翻译
大家早上好!这周南部开局不错,周末的雨大多已经停了——只剩几片云,东岸可能有点小阵雨,但午饭前就会全部放晴。接下来一两天,伦敦和肯特周边可能会有零星几次阵雨,但一直到周四大致都是晴的。
西北部这周就没那么好了:会更潮湿,阳光也不多。今天有些阵雨会下得很大——曼彻斯特和奔宁山脉一带甚至会打雷。利兹会躲过雷暴,今天余下时间和晚上只有毛毛雨和小雨。
其他地方今天会转晴,不过威尔士一带会有零星大雾。英格兰明天早上大部分地方会是干燥晴朗的开始,这周气温都会偏高。这周后段可能还会出现一两次雷暴,各地气温都在 29 到 30 度左右。
可惜到了周末,干燥天气就会被多云和降雨取代。雨会从苏格兰往南移,到周六下午到达南岸。气温至少还会维持在 21 度左右的温暖水平,跟这周将出现的接近三十度的高温比起来,可能会感觉像是不错的转变。今天就到这里,明天再见,趁着这波小热浪好好享受吧!

听力技巧
- 先抓地区词(south / north-west / Wales / Scotland),再把每段的天气信息挂到对应地区上,避免把不同地区的天气记混。
- 数字(气温、天数)密集出现时,抓"大约多少度""哪一天"两个关键点就够,不必逐字记住每一句的完整句型。
- 天气预报常用"从……到……"的时间线索(today → tomorrow → by the weekend)串联全文,跟着这条时间轴走,比逐句翻译更容易跟上整体结构。
