Hi! I’m Tina Smith and I’m thirteen years old. I live in Quebec with my parents, two little brothers, Peter and Mike, and a clever dog Blacky.

The city we live in is really beautiful. In winter it often snows and you can see the snow in the streets and on the houses. When the temperature（气温）is lower than thirty-five degrees（度数）below zero we don’t go to school but stay at home. It is very, very cold! Sometimes there are heavy snowstorms and you can’t see anything. There are often very cold winds and it is difficult to stay in the streets for a long time. That’s why we wear warm coats, hats and scarves not to freeze（冻结）.

I like winter when the weather isn’t very cold. Then we go outdoors, make snowmen, play snowballs, skate or ski. But sometimes I hope to live in a warm country.
