Read the lines from the poem “Weather Toast” by Kristine O’Connell George.
We call the guy next door to us
the Weather Engineer.
He’s some kind of genius
who built his own personal weather station–
barometer, rain gauge, wind speed indicator.
Cups and wires, tubes and antennas sprout
like strange, alien weeds from his backyard.
He keeps notebooks, charts, and graphs,
studies each day’s weather,
wired the whole contraption
up to his toaster,
(we’re still not sure why he did this),
rigged it so that symbols for the day’s weather
would be toasted onto his morning bread.
Suns. Clouds. Jagged lightning bolts for rain.
No need to look out the window.
No need to read the newspaper.
Which set of words from these lines is most clearly part of the key vocabulary for weather forecasting?
A.) suns, clouds, bolts, newspaper
B.) genius, alien, notebooks, studies
C.) cups, wires, tubes, antennas, contraption
D.) barometer, rain gauge, wind speed indicator
