A1 English Listening Practice - Weather

hey everybody welcome to this a one English listening practice video you can use this video to train your listening and comprehension as I speak you ready so today I'm going to talk about the weather this is an important topic because everybody talks about the weather if you are learning English you need to know how to talk about the weather so let's start with sunny weather sunny weather is my favorite type of weather when it's sunny outside I'm happy for me hot weather is better than cold weather some people don't like the heat but I don't

mind the heat it can be uncomfortable but for me that's okay some places are too hot though for example the city of Las Vegas is really hot in the summer I like hot weather but not that hot in really hot cities you need to stay inside during the afternoon in the u.s. most buildings in hot cities have air-conditioning ok now let's talk about cloudy days I hate cloudy days when the Sun is not shining I feel a little sad because I love sunny days but cloudy days are normal every city has cloudy days some cities

are always cloudy like London I can't live in a cloudy city I need sunshine do you like sunny or cloudy days more okay now let's talk about rainy days for me rainy days are the worst I love being outside so this is why I don't like the rain when it rains I can't do anything outside I have to stay indoors all day some people really like the rain my wife likes the rain but only when she's inside she says that the sound of the rain is calming I don't agree I don't like the sound of

the rain it reminds me that I can't go outside of course you can go outside when it's raining but you need to take an umbrella if you don't have an umbrella you get wet sometimes it starts raining when I'm not home and I don't have an umbrella with me this is the worst I don't like getting wet also when it rains it can be dangerous to drive many people have car accidents when it rains when the streets are wet you need to drive slower if you don't you can have an accident on rainy days there

are a lot of car accidents I don't like driving in the rain all right now let's talk about windy days some cities have a lot of wind and this can be good or bad if you live in a hot city the wind can be good because it cools the city down but if you live in a cold city the wind can be bad because it makes it even colder if the wind is really strong it can cause problems sometimes trees fall down because of the strong wind usually I prefer days that aren't windy okay lastly

let's talk about the snow it doesn't snow in my city so I don't see the snow often some years my family goes to the mountains in the winter to ski and snowboard I like the snow but I don't want to live in a snowy city it's too cold and life is more difficult in the snow I have some students that live in really cold cities during the winter the temperature can be minus 20 or minus 30 degrees Celsius for me that's crazy I don't like the cold another bad type of weather is stormy weather in

the u.s. we have some bad storms like hurricanes and tornadoes I've never seen a storm like this before but I've seen many thunderstorms these storms are not that bad but I don't like lightning lightning can be scary okay that's all for today leave a comment and tell me what type of weather you prefer I'll see you next video [Music] [Applause] [Music]
