Summer in your country may not be the same as summer in other countries.Summer is different all around the world!
____ In the Northern Hemisphere(the half of the Earth above the equator),summer is in the months of June,July and August,but in the Southern Hemisphere(the half of the Earth below the equator), summer happens in December,January and February.
The time the sun rises and sets is different around the world,too.In places that are in the extreme north or south of the Earth,such as Antarctica or Lapland, there is sunshine 24 hours a day during summer!This is called the "midnight sun" because you can see the sun at midnight during the summer.
The weather can be different in summer,too.In countries with tropical(热带的)climates,such as Thailand or Bangladesh,the weather in summer is very hot and humid(潮湿的)with lots of rain.Some countries,such as Spain,have hot and dry summers.In some countries,summer isn't very hot at all.In Iceland,the average(平均的) summer temperature is around15℃.
Even the sounds of summer are different!In some countries,such as China,you can hear the really loud buzzing sound of cicadas(蝉)all summer long.
Summer traditions are also different all around the world.In Mexico, people eat ice lollies called paletas that can be made from fruits such as strawberries,mangoes or even avocados!In Japan,people eat flavored shaved ice called kakigori and cold noodles in the hot summer weather.
After a long, cold and dry winter, life and color are starting to return. Flowers are everywhere, birds are singing and people are flying kites.Known as the birthplace of kites, Weifang in Shandong province has a long history of making kites.
It is believed that Weifang kite-making can be traced back(回溯)to 2, 000 years ago. At first, they were often used by the army for communication purposes. During the Ming Dynasty(1368—1644), kites started to be popular. Made from bamboo and covered with traditional Chinese paintings, Weifang kite-making was in the intangible cultural heritage(非物质文化遗产) lists in 2006. The International Kite Festival has been held in Wei fang every year since 1984.
Yang Hong wei, 56, is an inheritor(传承人)of the Wei fang kite-making. Born in a kite-making family, Yang often saw kites with bright colors and different shapes in her grandfather's workshop. "Many places around the world have a tradition of flying kites," Yang said. " But I think behind our kites is the beauty of our nature and culture."
On Yang's kites, people can see not only common things like flowers and birds, but also some patterns(图案)telling about Chinese fairy tales and history. "It takes lots of time,"Yang added,"but when I explain the thing on the kites to foreign customers, I feel a sense of great achievement."
In her spare time, she also travels to different countries including Germany, Australia, the US and New Zealand to tell people about Chinese stories seen on kites and the traditional ways of making kites. "I'm an inheritor of the culture. It is an important job of mine to spread the heritage around the world and onto the next generation(一代人)."she said.
