新目标(Go forit)版初中英语七年级下册Unit 7 It's raining!第2课时Section B
Dear Lisa,
How is everything going? It's winter in my hometown now. It is snowing heavily and the weather is really cold. There are many children outside. Look! Some girls are playing with snow. They are making snowmen. Some boys are skating on the river, because it's so cold that the water in the river freezes. It's a white world. How beautiful!
Spring comes in March, and it is usually warm in spring. I like summer best, because I like swimming very much. Autumn is a golden season. It's very beautiful.
I think the four seasons are all great. Can you tell me anything about the weather in Australia? I know it's still summer there, right? It must be very different from that in China.
Yours,
Tina

Mother's Day first began in America. A mother was very kind. After she died, her daughter wanted to remember her so she wanted to make a day for all the mothers. In 1913, America decided to make the second Sunday of May to be Mother's Day and every family had to put up a national flag to show their love to mothers. Later, it became an important festival to remember and praise(赞扬) all the mothers in the world.
In China, some people want to make our own Mother's Day. There is a famous story about Mother Meng. She loved her son very much and did a lot for her son. Chinese people think she was a great mother, so people want to make lunar(阴历的) April 2nd to be the day. Because Mother Meng's son——Mengzi was born on that day.
On Mother's Day, children often help their mothers do some cleaning and they also buy gifts for their mothers. Some mothers even go for a trip and have some other activities to celebrate this day.
