Yang Ming asks his teacher, Mr.Zhang some questions about the climate. Good morning, Mr. Zhang. Good morning,any questions? Yes, could you tell me the difference of climate between Beijing and Kunming? Of course. Beijing is situated in the North and Kunming in the Southwest. Is the climate related to the latitude? Yes, Beijing is in the high latitudes while Kunming in the low latitudes. Does the latitude influence the temperature? Certainly, it's colder in Beijing than in Kunming as a whole. The weather in Beijing is very bad. How? Can you explain it in detail? It's cloudy and windy. Through the whole year, the wind blows very hard. The dirt spreading in the air can make people dirty. It can even get through the window and fall on your furniture. But the strong wind offers a good chance to fly kites. What about Kunming? It's warm and sunny. The weather is agreeable,comfortable and humid. The range of temperature is unnoticeable. In short, that means it's like spring all year round. You're right. Thank you very much.
