Weather forecasting
Cyclones in India, hurricanes in the Caribbean - severe weather events make news headlines almost
weekly. Yet even in Britain, which has comparatively few climate extremes, the country is still governed
by weather. If it’s pouring with rain the British might stay indoors or go to the cinema; if it’s fine they’ll
have a picnic.
Most people nervously study the weather forecast the evening before if they’ve got an important
appointment the following day. Even if they have nothing planned, the weather often affects their mood.
For individuals, the worst that can usually happen if the weather catches them on the hop is that they
get wet.
For business, the effects are far more serious. Airlines and shipping companies need to avoid severe
weather and storm-force conditions. Power companies need to make sure they can supply the demand
for electricity in cold weather; farmers plan their harvests around the forecast and food manufacturers
increase their production of salads and other summer foods when fine weather is promised.
So who or what do meteorologists - weather forecasters as they are more commonly known - rely on
when it comes to producing a forecast? Ninety percent of the information comes from weather satellites,
the first of which was launched into space nearly forty years ago and was a minor revolution in the
science of forecasting. Up until then, forecasters had relied on human observers to provide details of
developing weather systems. As a result, many parts of the world where there were few humans
around, especially the oceans, were information-free weather areas. Today, however, satellites can watch
weather patterns developing everywhere.
In the UK meteorologists have also relied on releasing four weather balloons a day from eight fixed
sites. These balloons measure wind, temperature and humidity as they rise upwards to a height of about
26,000 metres.
Some commercial aircraft can also be fitted with a range of forecasting instruments although this
system has certain disadvantages. For example, it can provide a great deal of information about the
weather on popular routes, such as London to New York, but little about the weather on more out-of-the
way routes.
Instruments aboard ships can also supply basic weather information as well as important data on
wave height. Generally, the range of these instruments is fairly limited but they can indicate which
direction rain is coming from, how low the cloud is and give an idea of when the weather system will
reach land.
One forecaster who has made a name for himself is a man called Piers Corbyn, who bases his forecasts
on watching the Sun. Most forecasters will offer forecasts for only 10 days ahead, but Corbyn’s forecasts
are for 11 months. Although most meteorologists believe that there is no scientific basis for his work,
Corbyn’s forecasts are used by insurance companies who want to plan months in advance.

Question 24: The weather system affects people’s lives in Britain .

You might be surprised to know that bicycles have existed for less than two hundred years. Though
the earliest comes from a sketch said to be from 1534 and attributed to Gian Giacomo, there are several
early but unverified claims for the invention of the modem bicycle. No one is sure who invented this
popular two- wheeled machine, but it was probably either the German Karl von Drais, in 1817, or the
American W K Clarkson, in 1819. The early models didn't look much like the bicycles of today. The front
wheel was much bigger than the back one, and also there weren't any pedals - riders had to move
themselves forward by pushing their feet against the ground. Pedals finally arrived in the 1840s, and in
1879 an Englishman named Henry Lawson had the idea of connecting them to the back wheel with a
chain. Gears, which made things much easier for those cycling uphill, first appeared in the 1890s.
There are now approximately one billion bicycles in the world - more than twice the total number of
cars - and they are the main form of transport in some developing countries. They have to compete with
cars on the streets of all the world’s cities, and the two forms of transport don't always mix well. In
London in 2005, for example, over 300 cyclists were either killed or seriously injured in accidents
involving cars. Even though bicycles are much more environmentally friendly than cars,
most governments don't do much to encourage people to ride rather than drive. In China, which is
famous for having a huge number of bicycles (about 200 million), the authorities in the city of Shanghai
even banned cycling for a while in 2003.

Cycling is on the rise is the United Kingdom, and the number of annual journeys made by bike in
London has increased 50% over the last five years. Experts say there is a mixture of reasons for this
boom: concerns about the environment, the desire to keep fit, and also the fact that cycling is often not
only cheaper but also quicker than travelling by car.
However, although one in three British adults owns a bicycle, they still don't use them nearly as much
as they could. Bikes are used for a mere 2% of journeys in the UK, while the figure for the Netherlands is
an impressive 27%.
Cycling is becoming more popular as a competitive sport, and the most famous race is of course the
three-week Tour de France, which takes place every July. American Lance Armstrong won it every year
from 1999 to 2005 - one of the greatest individual sporting achievements of all time.
