冀教版初中英语八年级下册Unit 1 Lesson 5 Babysitting on a spring day 同步练习

They read books and newspapers, but they don't talk much. When you meet English people, they often talk about one thing—the weather. So when you meet someone in England, you can say, "Nice weather at the time of the year!"
"But it's a little cold," someone may answer. "But it'll be warmer later!" you can say.
The English will think, "How friendly you are!"
