Answer 1

The correct response is:

**first a high-pressure system, and then a low-pressure system**

A sunny week is typically associated with a high-pressure system, which brings clear skies and stable weather. The rainy weekend suggests the arrival of a low-pressure system, which is often associated with cloudier, wetter conditions.
