今天我们要讲两个和下雨有关的俗语。每个人对下雨的反应都不同。在发生旱灾的地方，农民天天盼望着下雨。可是，正在野外聚餐的人，下雨使他们感到扫兴。然而，有的活动不管天气如何都照常进行，这在中文里就是：风雨无阻。美国人的说法是：rain or shine。
Rain or shine简单地说就是：不管下雨或出太阳，一切照常进行。请听下面这个例子：
例句-1: "There is one big difference between baseball and football in America. If it's a rainy day, we don't play baseball. But teams play football rain or shine. In fact, I've seen football games played in a snowstorm."
但是，rain or shine实际上还包含更广的意思。Rain or shine还可以解释为：不管在什么情况下。比如说，一个年轻人离开了家到世界各地去周游，好久没有回家了。他对朋友说：
例句-2: "I haven't seen mother and dad and the rest of the family for ten years, but I still know I can count on them rain or shine."
下面我们再来讲一个和rain这个字有关的常用语：rainy day。Rainy day作为一个俗语，它的意思是：今后可能需要钱的时候，也就是准备一些钱，以防万一。下面是一个劳动妇女在说话：
例句-3: "Every week when I get my paycheck, I always try to put fifty dollars in my savings account for a rainy day. Who knows--I might lose my job someday or get sick and not be able to work!"
下面这句话对每个人来说可能都是金玉良言：
例句-4: "When you're twenty-five years old, sometimes it's hard to worry about rainy days off in the future. But if you're smart, you'll start saving for rainy days because rainy days come to us all."
