There are four seasons in a year. They are spring, summer, autumn and winter.

Spring is a beautiful season. It is from march to may. In spring, the trees turn green, and the flowers come out. Everything looks new.

Summer is a happy season. It is from June to August. In summer, we can swim and eat a lot of ice cream. Of course, we have a long holiday, summer holiday! At that time, we can join the summer camp. That’s great.

Autumn is a colorful season. It is from September to November. In autumn, the leaves on the trees turn yellow. Sometimes they are red. The colors are beautiful.

Winter is a cold season. It is from December to February. In winter, it begins to snow in most places of China. Snow is white, and everything looks white. The children like playing with snow.

A boy was cleaning shoes in the street. He said to a young man passing by, “Let me clean your shoes.” The young man said, “No, Thank you.” “You may pay me only a pound, sir,” said the boy. But the young man refused again.

Then the boy told him that he would clean his shoes for nothing. The young man agreed to this, and soon one of his shoes was shining brightly. The young man put the other shoe on the boy, but the boy refused to clean unless the young man paid him 2 pounds for his work. The young man refused to pay anything and went away. But the dirty one looks so bad that he couldn’t walk away. He had to turn back and gave the boy 2 pounds. In a short time, his shoes shone brightly.
