    在英国,测量温度普遍采用两种不同的标准。根据摄氏温标(以前称 Centigrade),水 0 度结冰,100 度沸腾;根据华氏温标,水 32 度结冰,212 度沸腾。正式谈论天气时使用摄氏温标。华氏温标被认为较为过时,不过使用仍很广泛。在美国,几乎总是用华氏温标。要想强调天冷,更有可能用摄氏温标,因为摄氏温标表示出的温度更低。相反,如果强调暖和,更可能用华氏温标。以下例子第一个用了摄氏度数,第二个用了华氏度数:The temperature has been down to minus seven (温度已经降到零下7度),With temperatures in the 70s, sun lovers have been flocking to resorts (温度达到七十多度,喜爱阳光的人纷纷涌向度假胜地)。
