We all like to know whether it is going to rain or to snow or whether it is going to be fine, warm and sunny. But some people have a special interest in the weather because it is important for their work. For example, with accurate forecasts of the weather farmers can plan their work better; and travellers by sea or air also like to know the kind of the weather to expect. A weather forecast is the result of me work of many observers working at weather - station all over the world. Most of the stations are on land, but stationary ships are also used at sea. Each weather-station reports its observations on air temperature, barometric pressure, cloud conditions and other meteorological data to its central weather - station; and international code adopted by the World Meteorological Organization is used. At the central weather-station the data are analyzed and changes are predicted by expert meteorologist. Weather reports are then broadcast at regular intervals. Here is the forecast for London for a day in April: “Cloudy, with occasional rain throughout the day; wind north east, light, rather cold, maximum temperature 9 °C .Further outlook: probably changeable with sunny intervals but with rain at time, warmer temperature near average.»
The Londoner reads this forecast and knows that he must take his umbrella or his mackintosh when he goes out. He cannot be sure that it is nit going to rain.

My Daily RoutineМой распорядок дняMy name is Sergei. I’m fourteen years old. To have time to do everything I try to map out my time correctly. I wake up at 7 o’clock every day except Sunday. I wash myself, clean my teeth with a tooth-brush and have my breakfast. In the mornings I like to eat fried eggs or omelette, cheese sandwich and to drink white coffee. My lessons begin at 8:30. I have to get to my school four stops by bus and not to be late I leave home at 7:50. At 2 o’clock the lessons are over. If the weather is good I like to go home from school on foot. After dinner I like to watch TV. I go in for boxing twice a week. My training begins at 3 o’clock and lasts for an hour. Then I do my homework. My parents go home after their work at half past five and we have supper at about six o’clock. I go for a walk with my friends in the evening. We go to the cinema or spend time in the public garden. I go to bed at 10 o’clock. Thanks to the fact that I have plan of the day I have the time for studies and a good rest.
