Last Sunday I saw the worst storm in years. It came suddenly and went on for more than three hours. After lunch, I went into my room to have a rest. The air was hot, and all was quiet.

When I came back into the house, it was raining harder. I tried hard to close the window. Then I heard a loud crashing sound from the back of the house.

五、阅读回答问题
“Fall” and “Autumn”
What season is it in October If you ask people from UK, they will tell you it’s “autumn”. But if you go to US, you will find that people use “autumn” or “fall”.
According to Dictionary.com, both words have been around for a long time, but neither of them was first to describe this season. During this season, crops would become ripe（成熟） and farmers would have a big harvest. So in Old English, this season was simply called “harvest”.
Then, in the 1600s, more people left their farms and moved to cities. With fewer people farming, the word “harvest” became less useful. English speakers needed a different name for the season. They knew leaves fell from trees during the season, so people started calling it “the fall of the leaf”, or “fall” for short.
But at the end of the 1600s, autumn, from the French word “autompne” and the Latin “autumnus”, came to English. “Fall” as the word for this season disappeared slowly.
At the same time, people in UK were making their first trip to North America. They brought the words “fall” and “autumn” with them. That’s why today Americans have two names for one season.
36．What do people call the season in October in UK

37．Why did people call this season “harvest” in Old English

38．When did “harvest” become less useful
