                                                                                               Snow

Have you ever¹ seen² snow? A lot of people in the world have not. A lot of countries never have snow — or have it only on the tops of very high mountains. In Canada there is quite a lot of snow every winter, but in the southern³ US there is usually very little.

When a student from a warm country like Vietnam⁴ comes to Canada in the autumn for the first time, he feels cold at first, and most students from warm countries do not like this.

Snow is different. Although⁵ it is very cold, it is also very beautiful.

Perhaps⁶, after several⁷ dark⁸ mornings, the student wakes⁹ up one day, and there is a lot of light in his room. He thinks, "Is it so late?"and jumps out of bed, but no, it is not very late. He looks out the window — and there is snow, on the ground¹⁰ and everywhere. The light in his room came¹¹ from that smooth¹², clean, beautiful white snow.

                                      雪

  你看见过雪吗？世界上有很多人都没有见过。许多国家从来不下雪——或者只有在很高的山顶上有雪。在加拿大，每个冬天都下很多雪，但美国南部通常很少下雪。当一个来自像越南这样温暖的国家的学生在秋天第一次到加拿大时，他首先感觉到的就是寒冷，而大多数来自温暖国家的学生不喜欢这么冷的天气。 

  雪就不同。虽然雪很冷，但是很漂亮。也许，在几个阴沉的早晨之后，有一天，学生醒来时房间里很亮。他会想，“天很晚了吗？”然后跳下床，可是不对，并不是很晚。他朝窗外看去—是雪，地上是雪，到处都是雪。原来他房间里的光亮来自光滑、干净、美丽的白雪。
