欢迎来到英国熊猫的另一个视频:帮助中国留学生,商务人士和游客充分了解英国生活的视频。
In this video we look at the British weather.
在这个视频中,我们来看看英国的天气。
How hot and cold can it get at certain times of the year?
一年中的某些时候它会有多热和多冷?
What can you expect and what type of clothing do you need to wear throughout the year in the UK?
在英国全年您需要穿什么衣服,穿什么类型的衣服?
Britain is a small country, so the weather is quite consistent throughout. It does get colder in the North of Scotland and is a little warmer in the South of England, but the differences are not too extreme.
不列颠是一个小国,所以整个天气都很稳定。苏格兰北部确实会更冷一些,在英格兰南部会暖和些,但差异不是太明显。
So, let’s keep it simple and go through the seasons of the year!
所以,让我们简单说一下全年的季节!
Let’s start with Autumn:
让我们从秋天开始:
1: Autumn 1:秋天
As summer finishes in the UK, Autumn starts in September and goes through to the end of November. A bit like China.
随着英国夏天的结束,秋季便于9月开始,并持续到11月底。跟中国有点像。
In England, September temperatures vary between 9 and 14 degrees Celsius and in Scotland, between 7 and 14 Celsius.
在英格兰,9月气温在9到14摄氏度之间,苏格兰在7到14摄氏度之间。
November can see a drop to between 3.6 to 9.4 in England and 2 to 7.4 Celsius in Scotland.
11月英格兰气温会下降到3.6到9.4摄氏度之间,苏格兰会下降到2到7.4摄氏度。
Most universities, workplaces and hotels will start their central heating in October.
很多大学,工作场所和酒店都会在10月开始集中供暖。
It rains quite a lot in Autumn, especially in November, so wear a waterproof, medium-weight jacket and always carry an umbrella!
秋天,特别是十一月,会有很多雨,所以穿上防水,厚夹克,记着随身带伞!
2: Winter
2:冬天
UK winters are not often very harsh. There is sometimes a cold weather front called “The Beast From the East” which comes from Russia.
英国的冬天通常不是很寒冷。有时会出现一个来自俄罗斯的寒冷天气,叫做“来自东方的野兽”。
It can drop temperatures significantly and the north of Scotland can drop much lower than England at times.
会有一个气温骤降,苏格兰北部有时会比英格兰冷得多。
However, winters in the UK are often relatively mild compared to China. It may snow around twice.
然而,与中国相比,英国的冬季往往相对暖和。它可能会下两次雪左右。
However, be warned, the UK does not cope very well with bad weather.
It creates transport delays and large buildings often close.
但是,请注意,英国并不能很好地应对恶劣天气。
它会造成运输延误,大型建筑也经常关闭。
Because the weather can vary between cold and mild, choose multiple layers of clothing, rather than very thick cold-weather clothing.
因为天气可以在寒冷和温和之间变化,要选择多层衣服,而非非常厚的寒冷冬装。
Scarves, hats and gloves are required. Oh, and always carry an umbrella!
需要带围巾,帽子和手套。哦,还要常带伞!
3: Spring
3:春天
Springtime in the UK is a beautiful, green time of year.
英国的春天是美丽的 春意盎然的,到处都是绿色。
March temperatures are still rather cold, ranging from 2 to 9 degrees Celsius in England and 1 to 7 degrees Celsius in Scotland.
三月气温依然很寒冷,英格兰为2至9摄氏度,苏格兰为1至7摄氏度。
The weather tends to brighten up in time for the Easter holiday in late March, early April.
3月下旬,4月初的复活节假期,天气趋于明朗。
Easter is a Bank Holiday weekend and marks the start of the summer season.
复活节是银行假日周末,标志着夏季的开始。
Throughout May, temperatures pick up to between 7 and 16 degrees Celsius in England and around 4.5 to 13 Celsius in Scotland.
整个5月,英格兰的气温上升到7到16摄氏度,苏格兰的气温上升到4.5到13摄氏度。
The weather is often bright, but spring brings a lot of rainy days, so don’t forget that umbrella.
天气往往很晴朗,但春天会带来很多雨天,所以不要忘记那把雨伞。
There certainly are some warmer, t-shirt days in May, so as far as clothing goes, stick to wearing layers.
五月肯定有一些日子很暖和可以穿T恤,所以衣服要持续的多穿几层。
4: Summer 4:夏天
Summer is much milder than in China. It is rarely too hot and you can usually wear whatever you like throughout the season.
夏天跟中国相比要温和得多。它不那么热,你通常可以在整个赛季穿任何你喜欢的衣服。
Temperatures range between 10 and 21 degrees Celsius.
温度在10到21摄氏度之间。
There may be a few weeks that experience temperatures as high as 30 degrees, but don’t depend on it.
可能有几周气温会高达30度,但不一定。
Because it is not very hot for long in UK summertime, very few rooms have air conditioning.
因为在英国夏季不会长时间很热,很少有房间会装空调。
You might want to buy a cheap fan from a shop called Wilkinsons, which are in every town.
你可能想从一个名叫Wilkinsons的商店买一个便宜的风扇,每个城镇都有这个商店。

So that’s the weather in the UK. Never too extreme.
这就是英国的天气。永远不会太极端。
Wear layers, carry an umbrella and you’ll be fine.
多穿几层,带伞,你会没事的。
