Speaker A. I like it when it rains. The heavier  — the better. The British say: "It’s lovely weather for ducks". People think me strange, but that’s me. If it’s warm, it’s such a pleasure to walk on the rain, completely wet yet feeling like a child, if it’s cold outside, rain makes your home million times cozier. On such dais I cancel all my meetings and appointments. Rap up in a blanket and watch some good old film or soap. There’s nothing like rainy weather.

Speaker B. I agree with the idea that the climate can affect our moods and even national traits. In my country, for example, there is a wide variety of the weather conditions: from extreme cold to extreme hot. In a place where I live the weather is cold, the sky is cloudy and people’s behavior takes some certain characteristics. In this case people tend to be irritable but there are warm origins in our country where people are mostly really very friendly.

Speaker C. To my mind, the deterioration of the weather conditions happens due to human’s activities. Bad weather is just a result of our thoughtless behavior, such as nuclear tests and wars. Even if our individual negative thoughts can lead to bad weather. Our planet is a live organism, so when it falls ill in one place it’s other parts can suffer too. All negative energy of man-⁠kind searches the way out and one of these is through bad weather conditions.

Speaker D. I believe, if you living in a place like Britain where the weather seems to change daily if not hourly sometimes, you can be forgiven for thinking that the weather is random. In fact, the weather is controlled by systems, moving around arias of the globe. In the UK the weather depends on depressions, often cold lose and anticyclones also known as highs. As far as I know, highs bring sunny weather while lose can bring unpleasant rain and wind.

Speaker E. I’ve read that the reason study suggests that certain people may have a unique special gift for predicting the weather, but it’s quite possible that these people would use that talent in another way. Since the same group have a remarkably considerable success in forecasting changes in another chaotic system  — the stock market. Winning badpue wonderful, make millions in Wall street and know what to put on every single day  — I’d really love it!

Speaker F. I feel a bit under the weather. It’s a common complete in Britain. Especially on Mondays. And it seems to me, that the weather is responsible for physical and emotional state. I think changeable weather makes hard to concentrate and I must say that hot weather makes me snappy. Some suggests that the weather also leads its mark on character but I reckon, that the economic, political and social factors have a stronger effect that the weather.
