A composition on meteorology

It will rain if the ants move.

Nature is a wonderful world, and the weather on earth is changeable. Our clever ancestors, after five thousand years of observation and accumulation, finally sorted out thousands of meteorological proverbs. Once, I saw such a proverb in a book about meteorology-"It rains when ants move." I'm skeptical. Ants are busy moving. Will it rain? So I have a strong curiosity to test this proverb.

One afternoon in summer, I was enjoying the cool under a big tree when I happened to find a group of black ants moving. They are all in a hurry, some with ivory ant eggs, some with beige ant pupae, some with old ants, injured ants, and some with all kinds of food ... Suddenly I thought of that proverb, so I settled down to observe and verify it. I look up at the high blue sky, and now it's clear in Wan Li. The sun is burning, relentlessly sprinkling light and heat on the earth, and there are several white clouds floating on the horizon. Curiosity drove me to observe along the route of ants, and I found that ants were moving to higher places.

A few hours later, the blue sky began to clear up and turn cloudy. After a while, it was overcast, thundering and lightning, and soon it began to rain cats and dogs. Now, I am speechless. I secretly praise you, little ants, you are really a barometer of breathing!

Through this incident, I understand that these proverbs have scientific basis. I am proud that we have such ancestors.
