In the evening, the streets are lit up and the drizzle is like silk, casting a hazy veil over the city. People hurryed along, some holding up umbrellas, others letting the rain wet their shoulders, everyone was busy chasing their own home.
In this bustling crowd, there is a distinctive figure - Professor Zhang, an expert in meteorology. He held a thick notebook in his hand, and his eyes flashed with a thirst for knowledge and a reverence for nature. Professor Zhang has been looking for the pattern of rainfall, hoping to predict the weather through scientific methods and bring convenience to people's lives.
That evening, Professor Zhang met a young man named Xiao Li on the street. Xiao Li is a curious person and has a strong interest in the notebook in Professor Zhang's hand. He stepped forward and asked curiously, "Professor, what are you studying?" It looks so esoteric. ”
Professor Zhang replied with a smile, "Young man, I'm sorting out the pattern of rain." Do you know? Although rain may seem irregular, there are many scientific principles behind it. ”
Xiao Li's eyes widened, and he asked curiously, "Really?" Can you tell me about it? ”
Professor Zhang nodded and began to speak: "First of all, we need to understand the formation of rain. When water vapor in the air meets cold air, it condenses into water droplets, forming clouds. When the water droplets in the cloud accumulate to a certain extent, they fall due to gravity, forming rain. However, this is only a rough process, and there are actually many factors that affect rainfall, such as air pressure, wind direction, humidity, and so on. ”
Xiao Li listened to it with relish, and couldn't help but sigh: "It turns out that there are so many things to pay attention to when it rains!" ”
Professor Zhang continued, "Yes, and I also found some interesting patterns. For example, there is always a lot of rainfall in a certain area during a given season of the year. This may be related to the climatic characteristics of the region, topography and other factors. In addition, I also noticed a peculiar phenomenon, which is the 'Rain Shadow Zone'. ”
"Rain Shadow Zone?" Xiao Li asked curiously.
"Yes," Professor Zhang explained, "on the leeward side of some mountain ranges, there will be relatively little rainfall because the airflow is blocked by the mountains and cannot rise to form clouds." This creates a relatively dry 'rain shadow zone'. ”
Xiao Li nodded suddenly in realization, and he sighed: "It's amazing! I didn't expect it to rain so much. ”
Professor Zhang smiled and said, "Yes, the natural world is always full of mysteries. But as long as we explore and study with our hearts, we can find the law. This is not only an understanding of nature, but also a reverence for life. ”
Xiao Li was deeply inspired, he looked at Professor Zhang gratefully and said, "Professor, thank you for telling me so much today. I think you're really an amazing person. ”
Professor Zhang modestly waved his hand and said, "It's nothing remarkable, I just did what I was supposed to do." I hope that my research can bring some help and enlightenment to people. ”
At this moment, the street lights on the street suddenly turned on, pulling the figures of the two of them long. Professor Zhang looked at his watch and said, "It's not early, I have to go home and continue my research." If you're interested in meteorology, boy, come and talk to me. ”
Xiao Li nodded excitedly and said, "Okay professor!" I'll definitely go to you! ”
The two said goodbye and left. Professor Zhang returned to his lab to continue his research, while Xiao Li set out on his way home full of anticipation and curiosity.
On the way home, Xiao Li's heart was full of yearning and awe for the unknown world. He realized that every phenomenon in nature contains profound scientific principles, and as long as we explore them with our hearts, we can discover the mysteries. At the same time, he also felt Professor Zhang's thirst for knowledge and awe of nature, which made him admire and strengthen his determination to pursue knowledge.
After arriving home, Xiao Li couldn't wait to turn on the computer and start searching for information about meteorology. He hopes that through his own efforts, he can have a deeper understanding of the mysteries of the natural world and bring more convenience and hope to human life.
It was still drizzling outside the window at night, but Xiao Li's heart was full of hope and longing. He believes that as long as people continue to pursue knowledge and explore the unknown, they will be able to discover more laws and bring more beauty and happiness to our lives. And Professor Zhang, the secret guardian of rain, will continue his research to reveal more mysteries of nature.
