In England, people often talk about the weather because they can experience (经历) four seasons in one day. In the morning the weather is warm just like in spring. An hour later black clouds come and then it rains hard. The weather gets a little cold. In the late afternoon the sky will be sunny, the sun will begin to shine, and it will be summer at this time of a day.
In England, people can also have summer in winter, or have winter in summer. So in winter they can swim sometimes, and in summer sometimes they should take warm clothes.
When you go to England, you will see that some English people usually take an umbrella (伞)or a raincoat with them in the sunny morning, but you should not laugh at them.
If you don't take an umbrella or a raincoat, you will regret (后悔) later in the day.
A terrible explosive noise was heard, immediately followed by strong shaking of the classroom building. Mrs. Li Lan, a country school teacher in Sichuan, who was giving a class, could hardly keep on her feet, and many of her pupils made panic cries. Mrs. Li realized at once that it must be a powerful earthquake hitting the area. Though she herself was scared, she managed (设法) to make the children calm down, opened the door right away and told the children to leave the classroom and get down to the playground as quickly as possible.
When all the children had left, she followed them to the first floor. The earth still kept moving violently (巨烈地). Some of the buildings nearby were falling down, and a great number of falling stones were rolling down from the hills behind the school. Suddenly, she found a little boy fell over and was hit by a big stone right on his body. She forgot the danger she was facing and ran over, trying to push the stone away. The stone was so big that it was not easy for her to move it. She kept pushing until the boy was pulled out, carrying him to the center of the playground. The boy was later sent to hospital and saved.
I recently heard a story about a famous scientist. Because of his great achievements, he was thought to be more creative than the ordinary person. When he (ask) why he was able to do this, he gave the answer. It all came from an experience with his mother when he was about two years old. “I tried to get a bottle of milk from the fridge when I lost the bottle and it fell， spilling（溢出）the milk all over the floor — a sea of milk! I was frightened and I didn't know what to do!” he said.
His mother heard the noise and got into the kitchen. “I (consider）how to explain all this to you, mom.” He said. Instead of (punish) him, she said, “Robert, what a great mess(杂乱) you have made! I (not see) such a huge sea of milk before! Well. since the milk has already been spilled, would you like to play in the milk for a while? We (clean) it up after that.” Indeed, he did so. After a few minutes, his mother said, “You know, Robert, whenever you make a mess like this, finally you have to clean it up.” He used a sponge(海绵) and together they cleaned up the spilled milk. His mother then said, “You know, you （fail）in how to successfully carry a big milk bottle with two tiny hands just now. Let's go out in the yard and fill the bottle with water to see if you can find a way to carry it.” Then the little boy learned that if he grasped (抓紧) the bottle at the top near the lip with both hands, he could carry it without dropping it. What a wonderful lesson!
