移步換景:雪後的校園-Our Schoolyard After the Snow

雪後的校園

【內容提示】

你的家鄉在北方。昨晚下了一夜的雪,你清晨起來,推門一看,一片潔白。吃過早飯,你背起書包,拿上鐵杴去上學。走進教室,空無一人,你趕緊去操場。那裡,學生們都在清理路上的雪。掃完雪,你們進教室上課。課後,同學們都去操場玩雪。學校周圍的樹上穿著雪衣,遠處的山上也是白茫茫的積雪。

Our Schoolyard After the Snow

One winter morning, I got up early. It was still dark. When I pushed the door open, everything was covered with snow. I hurried through my breakfast, and then went to school with my bag on my back and a shovel①in my hand.

When I reached school, I saw the lights were still on. Immediately I rushed to the classroom, but to my surprise, I saw nobody there. Then I ran to the playground. There I saw most of the students trying to clear thesnow on the paths. How hard they were working. I joined them in the work. Soon the snow was removed. Then we all came back to the classroom, laughing, talking, and singing. As soon as the bell rang at the end of the class, we rushed out of the classrooms to the playground. Oh, there was so much snow! We at once started playing. Some of us began to fight with snow balls. Some were rolling on the snow ground. Still some others piling up a snowman. In the centre of the playground, many students were skating on the ice. Some of them could not skate and had many falls.

Our hands and faces turned red with cold, we were also wet all over, but we didn't mind.

The trees around the schoolyard looked like huge men with silver clothes defending our school. Beyond, snow-covered mountains in the distance looked like an elephant made of wax②.

What a wonderful scene!
