Миша: Зима - мое любимое время года. Я её очень люблю, потому что зимой так красиво. Солнце такое яркое. Улицы, дома и деревья белые,и снег выглядит так красиво на солнце. Вы можете много кататься на лыжах, на коньках и на санках. Мы обычно играем в снежки и лепим снеговиков зимой. Мы играем много в лесу и у нас бывают зимние каникулы. Мы празднуем Рождество и Новый год в январе. Санта Клаус (мы называем его Дедом Морозом) дает нам подарки. Кейт: Я не люблю зиму. Я не могу кататься на лыжах или на коньках, и мне всегда холодно зимой. Дни короткие, а ночи длинные. Уже темно в 5 часов вечера, и моя мама просит меня приходить домой пораньше. Поэтому я всегда дома вечером. Вы знаете, я люблю разные цвета: желтый, красный, зеленый, коричневый и голубой, но я вижу только белый цвет в это время года. Зима всегда белая.
