　　英文原文：

　　snow

　　Have you ever seen snow? A lot of people in the world have not. A lot of countries never have snow — or have it only on the tops of very high mountains. In Canada there is quite a lot of snow every winter, but in the southern US there is usually very little.

　　When a student from a warm country like Vietnam comes to Canada in the autumn for the first time, he feels cold at first, and most students from warm countries do not like this.

　　Snow is different. Although it is very cold, it is also very beautiful.

　　Perhaps, after several dark mornings, the student wakes up one day, and there is a lot of light in his room. He thinks, "Is it so late?" and jumps out of bed, but no, it is not very late. He looks out the window — and there is snow, on the ground and everywhere. The light in his room came from that smooth, clean, beautiful white snow.

　　中文翻译：

　　雪

　　你看见过雪吗？世界上有很多人都没有见过。许多国家从来不下雪——或者只有在很高的山顶上有雪。在加拿大，每个冬天都下很多雪，但美国南部通常很少下雪。当一个来自像越南这样温暖的国家的学生在秋天第一次到加拿大时，他首先感觉到的就是寒冷，而大多数来自温暖国家的学生不喜欢这么冷的天气。

　　雪就不同。虽然雪很冷，但是很漂亮。也许，在几个阴沉的早晨之后，有一天，学生醒来时房间里很亮。他会想，“天很晚了吗？”然后跳下床，可是不对，并不是很晚。他朝窗外看去—是雪，地上是雪，到处都是雪。原来他房间里的光亮来自光滑、干净、美丽的白雪。
