Welcome back to the podcast. I’m Teacher Duncan, and if you look outside the window right now, you already know what today's topic is. That's right... rain.[Script]It has been raining non-stop for the past two days. Not just a little bit of rain, but pouring rain! When I woke up yesterday morning, the sky was completely grey and gloomy. I looked out the window and thought, 'Oh no, where is the sun?'And guess what? I checked the weather forecast this morning, and the news is not good. It is going to continue raining for this entire coming week. Seven more days of water!Living in Taiwan during the rainy season can be a bit difficult, can’t it? Think about your morning journey to school. You put on your raincoat, you open your umbrella, but by the time you walk into the classroom, your shoes are completely wet. Have you ever had wet socks at school? You walk across the floor and it goes squish, squish, squish. It is the worst feeling in the world!Another funny problem is the laundry. In my house, we have clothes hanging everywhere right now because nothing will dry! The air is too humid. My living room looks like a clothing store.But rainy days don’t have to be completely terrible. When it rains outside, it is the perfect excuse to stay inside, get cozy, and do your favorite indoor activities. You can play video games, you can bake cookies with your family, or—my favorite—you can listen to English podcasts!So, let's make a deal. This week, while the rain is hitting your windows, don't be sad. Take out a good book, drink some hot milk tea, and stay dry. Rain, rain, go away, come again another day!Now, let’s see if you can answer today's rainy day questions.\"OUTRO:That is the end of our story. Good job!Now, can you answer...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/bgDVp1tmhHocRwizKpwdIa1RZbrvXmzLrM6-qKDqpl8/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9kOGY0/YzQzZWRhMDFkM2U4/MGYwNDE3Njk3NTQw/OTk3OS5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
