surprised. Everything was covered with snow! Snowy flakes were falling from the sky, everything was pleasant and beautiful! It was not frosty, and children were skating and making snowman.
But look! The wind has risen! Snow is falling from the roofs to the ground. Small icicles are falling too. That’s a realblizzard. It’s not the best time for going out.
The Russians say “the first snow always melts”. And I know that after some months winter will be over, the trees will be blossom and birds will be singing and building their nests. This is spring, the time when all the nature awakes from its winter sleep.
The summer will come – a long period of sunshine and time of holidays for schoolchildren and students. We can go swimming, diving or mountaineering. It’s great to go cycling or hiking. We mustn’t forget to take photos: they will remind us of these exciting days.
Time flies and autumn comes. This is the period of harvest for countrymen and for me it’s the beginning of a new year of studies.

Russian:“Really? Why is it so?”
Englishman: “You see, Britain is near the ocean, and the water there changes its temperature slower than the ground, it has greater thermal heat capacity. That’s why the changes are not so great.”
Russian:“Do you like when it rains?”
Englishman: “When I was a child, I liked it! Now I simply don’t notice it. I can walk without any umbrella when it’s drizzling and never catch a cold.”
Russian:“Do you have central heating at home?”
Englishman:“Yes, I have a radiator, but I don’t have central heating yet. The weather in the world becomes more unusual. That’s why I must think about it.”
Russian:“That’s a good idea. And are there any beaches in England?”
Englishman: “Yes, there are, mostly on the south coast, but the water isn’t really warm. You’d better go to Spain. Many Englishmen do it. It’s not so far,but the weather is completely different.”
Russian:“Sure, I will do so.”
