Listening

Hi, friends! I am Ann. I am from Canada. My family is not big. I have

got a mother, a father and a little brother Tom. We all like different

seasons. I like autumn. It is a beautiful season. September, October,

November are autumn months. Sometimes the weather is wet, cool and

foggy but I like the rain and the nature. Trees and ground are covered

 with red, yellow and brown leaves. Birds fly away to warm countries

but it`s so nice to walk in the forest and to gather mushrooms and berries.

       There are many fruit and vegetables in autumn, too.

              My mom`s favourite season is spring. Spring months are March,

April, May. Nature awakens from long winter sleep and everything

is wonderful. Trees blossom, first flowers appear, birds come back from

warm countries and children build bird houses for them. Mother likes to

pick up the first flowers and to listen to the bird`s singing in the morning.

            My brother Tom likes winter. December, January, February are

winter months. He likes snowy and frosty weather as he is fond of skating on the skating-rink and playing snowballs with his friends. Soft white snow covers

 the ground and trees and everything is beautiful. We celebrate New Year

 and Christmas in winter and we always decorate a Christmas tree at home

 and have a holiday dinner.

              Daddy is fond of summer. June, July, August are summer months. He likes hot and sunny weather. He has got a long vocation in summer and can do

a lot of things. He goes boating and fishing very often. He likes swimming

 in the river and get tanned. He is good at sport and plays football or bad-

minton with Tom or with me. Besides, Dad has got his birthday in summer.
