Chin-Lu held her grandmother's hand as they walked through the park. "Grandma, this is my favorite time of year.
I love spring best."
"Why do you love spring, Chin-Lu, "grandma asked. Chin-Lu answered, "I love the beautiful flowers, baby birds, and the sunshine."
"Isn't it nice that we have different seasons? Imagine if it is always the same season, "grandma said.
"I wouldn't like that. I don't want to have snow on the ground all year long. I don't want to have autumn leaves all the time, either. I like it when the seasons are different. If it was winter all the time we'd never have butterflies(蝴蝶), "Chin-Lu replied.
Then they saw two butterflies and grandma explained something about the different butterflies so that Chin-Lu knew it better. "We can see the river from here. Look at the fish swimming about in it. They are all fish, but some have more orange and some have more white. They are different. That's what makes everything unusual and beautiful. Nothing is the same, "grandma said.
