春 Spring

佚名/Anonymous

Winter has gone and spring has come.

In spring the weather is mild and the breeze blows gently. Boys and girls fly kites as an amusement. The ground is covered with sweet smelling herbs and all trees bring forth their fresh leaves. Willows drape their green osiers and pretty sweet blossoms bloom on many fruit trees, as if each tried to look more beautiful than the other. The fragrance of the flowers pleases us. Here and there we hear bees and butterflies in search of honey; we hear the birds singing their charming songs on the branches of the trees. We feel neither too hot nor too cold. As the sun mildly shines, when we look down from some hill or tower, we find the ground looking like a vast green sea. When night comes, the birds, tired of long singing, return to their warm nests for rest just as the children go to their happy homes.

Spring is not only good for the plants and animals but also for men, for it always gives us longer days and pleasant weather to cheer us up and give us sound health. Besides, spring is a very good time for us to study or to do some useful business. We should make good use of it.

冬去春又來。

春日里，天氣溫和，微風和煦。孩子們在放風箏玩耍。地面上長滿了芬芳的香草，柳樹垂下它那柔軟的枝條，果樹也綻放出美麗的花朵，爭芳斗艷，陣陣花香沁人心脾。到處可以聽到蜜蜂和蝴蝶尋找花蜜的聲音，還有鳥兒們動聽的歌唱。天既不熱也不冷，太陽溫柔地照耀著萬物。當我們從山頂或塔尖向下看時，發現大地像一片無邊的綠色海洋。夜晚來臨，鳥兒們唱累了，回到它們溫暖的巢中休息，就像孩子們回到了快樂的家中一樣。

春天不僅僅有益于植物和動物，對人類也是有利的。因為，春天的白晝較長，氣候宜人，讓我們心情愉快，身體健康。另外，春天是學習的大好時間，適合做一些有益的事情，我們應該好好加以利用。
