        Myfamily and I have visited our friend, Dennis, in Chicago several times insummer, but we hardly visited him in winter. It's December now, and here we arein Chicago. We have been here for two weeks. It's much colder in Chicago thanin New Orleans at this time of year.

        Thiswinter has been very cold. It has snowed a lot and people have had trouble withtheir cars. Last night, it snowed again. Now there is 60cm of snow on theground. This has been fun for me, but Dennis didn't have fun this morning whenhis car got stuck(抛锚) in snow. Schoolshave closed because students can't get to school. Many people have stayedinside.

        Accordingto Dennis, spring and fall are lovely seasons here. In the spring time, everythingcomes alive. People seem happy and spend more time outside. The sun shinesalmost every day. Dennis says that the leaves turn orange, yellow and red inthe fall. The weather is still warm and comfortable. People drive to thecountry in order to see the fall colors. This is our friend's favorite season.

        Summeris a good season in the north-central part of the United States, too. Our lastvisit was in the summer time. It was hot, but there were fun things to do. Wewent on picnics, swam a lot and had parties in Dennis' backyard.
