5.It‘sjustsprinkling.只是在下毛毛雨而已。毛毛雨或是毛毛雪我们都可以用drizzle和sprinkle这两个动词来表示。Drizzle这个字就是气象术语里下毛毛雨的意思，而sprinkle虽然是撒的意思，但也常被用来形容毛毛雨，常听到的用法就是"It'sdrizzling."或是"It'ssprinkling."。另外还有一个说法叫scatteredrain，它指的是零零星星的降雨"Wehavetocancelthetrackandfieldcontestbecauseofthescatteredrain."因为零星的降雨所以我们必须取消田径赛。atmosphere大气；空气；气氛beastly令人讨厌的blowhard刮大风breezy有微风的clearup多云的；阴天的；阴沉的damp潮湿的humitydownpour倾盆大雨drought干旱fair晴朗的；转晴的freeze结冰gale大风gustofwind阵风haze薄雾lightning闪电mild气温适中的nasty令人不快的，讨厌的overcast阴天的rainfall降雨；降雨量sandstorm沙暴sleet下雨雪；下冻雨；下雨夹雪snowflake雪花sultry闷热的；酷热awful糟糕的blowdust扬沙boiling沸腾的chilly寒冷的cyclone旋风；飓风；暴风；龙卷风dew露水drizzle下毛毛雨dull阴天的foggy浓雾的frosty结霜的，严寒的gloomy阴沉的hail冰雹；下冰雹hurricane飓风；强热带风暴meteorology气象学；气象状态mist薄雾oppressive天气闷热的precipitation降水；降水量rotten坏的；恶劣的scorching灼热的snowfall降雪；降雪量splendid极好的sunny阳光充足的tempest暴风雨tornado内陆龙卷风warmandnice暖洋洋的whirlwind旋风thunder雷声；打雷typhoon台风Celsius['selsiəs]摄氏度/Fahrenheit['færəhait]华氏的
