文本解说
一个好的天气，一个好的心情：当晴空万里，我们会感到春暖花开;当阴雨连绵，我们会感到沉闷压抑。不得不说天气确实会影响到我们的心情，所以在英语中有很多关于天气的表达可以用来表示心情。
There are some common expressions about weather to describe mood of people in American English. For example， surely most of you have heard the expression “raining cats and dogs”. We often use it when it is raining very hard！
Now， we have another useful expression about heavy rain， “When it rains， it pours！” This means that when something bad happens， other bad things usually happen at the same time. We often use this saying after someone describes a lot of bad things， one after the other， like this example：
“Boy， my sister is really having a hard time these days.”
“Why？ What’s wrong？”
“First， someone stole her car. Then she broke her arm in a biking accident and a falling tree knocked in her house—all in one week！”
“What an unlucky week. When it rains， it pours！”
When using this expression， you know that it can be helpful in any situation. You can say it to your best friend or to your employer. Now， the Merriam-Webster’s dictionary （韋氏词典） says that English speakers use this idiom for a series of bad things. However， other websites say you can also use it to describe many good things， though， more often than not， the “rain” in this expression is used for bad situation. Besides， we also use the next one in bad times. If a person is under a cloud， they are thought to have done something bad or dishonorable. A person might even be under a certain type of cloud， such as a cloud of suspicion. If you are living under a cloud of suspicion， other people believe that you have done something wrong.
We use this expression for companies and organizations as well. For example， currently many scandals surround some women’s gymnastic organizations and some universities in the United States. They are under a cloud of suspicion.
However， if you add a few extra words to the phrase， the meaning changes greatly. If I am living under a dark cloud， it means I am depressed and sad all the time. We even could say： “living under the dark cloud of depression” or “living under the dark cloud of poverty （贫穷）”.
So there are different types of dark clouds you can live under. But even for people living under a dark cloud， there is hope. And that brings us to the last expression：“every cloud has a silver lining”. This expression means there is always something hopeful in even the most difficult or unhappy situation.
A silver lining on a cloud shows that the sun is behind it. Even a really terrible， bad event may produce something happy or hopeful. For example， if you work hard all the time but only get low salary， so you feel very disappointed. One day， your boss has promoted your position and raised your salary because of your hard working. At this time， you must say： “every cloud has a silver lining”！
