New Concept English（Book 2 ） (新概念英语)（第二册）,Everything except the weather.,Lesson 38,,My old friend, Harrison, had lived in the Mediterranean [meditə'reiniən] for many years before he returned to England. He had often dreamed of retiring in England and had planned to settle down in the country. He had no sooner returned than he bought a fine house and went to live there. Almost immediately he began to complain about the weather, for even though it was still summer, it rained continually and it was often bitterly cold. After so many years of sunshine, Harrison got a shock. He acted as if he had never lived in England before. In the end, it was more than he could bear. He had hardly had time to settle down when he sold the house and left the country. The dream he had had for so many years ended there. Harrison had thought of everything except the weather.,,,地中海式气候 位于副热带纬度的大陆西岸，约在纬度30°～40°之间，包括地中海沿岸、美国加里福尼亚州沿海、南美智利中部沿海、南非的南端和澳大利亚的南端。
