聽力每日練習 listen 4083 Four seasons

 
2--Women in particular. They are anxious to get rid of those thick and clumsy winter suits and put on their new fashionable spring dress.
 
1--Well, when summer comes, the weather is  hot and the  leaves turn  darkgreen;the sun is blazing and the air is threatening. No one would like to stay in the open air for long.
 
2--That's true. In summer, the first place people want to go is a spacious room with air-conditioning or a quiet river or swimming pool.
 
1--I myself like very much to listen to the singing of some of the insects, especially the singing of cicadas.
 
2--In autumn,almost all fruits are ripe and all crops are waiting to be harvested.
 
1--And you can hear singing and laughing everywhere!People are happy in autumn because autumn brings them harvest and richness and prosperity!
 
2--Well,winter is a season for relaxation,do you agree with me?
 
1--Well,it's hard to say, For the fields and rivers, winter is a relaxing season，but for farmers, I think they might take a rest physically, but mentally they are still busy thinking, planning and calculating for the working of the next year.
 
2--Maybe you are right.

譯文：
 
1--春天，人們感到心情振奮，他們脫掉笨重的冬衣，走起路來腰桿挺直、步履輕盈。他們感到精力充沛、情緒高漲。
2--尤其是女士們，她們急不可待地甩掉又厚又重的棉衣，穿上款式新潮的春裝。
1--唔，到了夏季，天氣炎熱，樹葉變成了深綠色;太陽烤人，熱氣難忍，沒有人愿意到戶外去。
2--不錯。在夏天，人們最愿意去的地方是帶空調的寬敞房間，或者是蔭涼平靜的小河或游泳池。
1--我很喜歡聽夏天里的一些昆蟲的歡歌，特別是知了的唱歌聲。
2--在秋季，差不多所有的果實都已成熟，所有的莊稼都在等待著收割。
1--而且到處都能聽到歡歌笑語聲!秋天里人們歡欣喜悅，因為秋天給人們帶來了豐收、富足和興旺!
2--唔，冬天是人們放松一下的季節(jié)，你同意嗎?
1--唔，這很難說。冬天對于田野和河流來說，是一個放松休息的季節(jié)，可是對于農民來說，我想，他們可能在體力上要放松一下，可是在他們的頭腦卻仍然在忙于思考、盤算和計劃下一年的工作。
2--也許你是對的。
