浙江省温州市龙湾外国语2024-2025学年九年级上学期英语10月英语月考试题
You are walking down the street. Suddenly it starts to rain and you don't have an umbrella. What do you do? Run or walk?
Most people would rather run because it will get you out of the rain faster. But if you run, you also run into more raindrops. So, what should you do?
Things are more complicated(复杂的) than you might think. Franco Bocci, a professor at the University of Brescia in Italy, found that whether you should travel slowly or quickly in the rain depends on the wind direction and your body shape, according to the BBC
When there is no wind, and the rain lands directly on you, Bocci suggests that you should run and hide as fast as possible. But if the wind comes from behind and blows the rain onto your back, the best thing to do is to walk at the same speed as the wind. This way , both your front and back will stay mostly dry.
This is not all. When the wind blows in from the side, you' ll have to think about one more thing— your body shape. Thinner people are hit by fewer raindrops. In this case, a fatter person had better run while a thinner person should still try to match their speed to the wind.
" In general, the best thing is to run, as fast as you can- not always, but in general ." Bocci told BBC News," If you' re really thin, it's more probable that there will be a best speed. Otherwise , it is better to run fast."
Now you know what to do next time the rain catches you in the middle of the street. But the best way to stay dry is still to carry an umbrella.
①how fast he can run ②his body shape ③how heavy the rain is ④the wind direction
