5.11 Text for written translation 
The only thing you can rely on is that New York weather is entirely unreliable. 
A temperature change of as much as 40 degrees (Fahrenheit) within a single day is 
not uncommon. It may be freezing cold one afternoon, and bright, warm and sunny 
the very next morning, or unfortunately vice versa. According to the US Weather 
Bureau, New York City has a modified continental climate. 
New Yorkers live in a relatively damp climate of cold winters and warm, humid 
summers. Hot spells can be difficult to bear. During the summer months there are 
brief but intense thunder storms. Rains which continue for a few days are not 
uncommon. On an average it will rain or snow 120 days out of the year. New York 
has many beautiful sunny days, especially during autumn. 
July is the hottest month of the year, with an average temperature of 73.9 
(Fahrenheit) and the coldest months are January and February with an average 
temperature of 30.8 degrees. Most of the strong winds that visit New York are from 
the northwest. 
5.12 Make up all possible types of questions to the text 5.11
