In winter, the streets in the city of New York are covered with snow. The air is clear and cold. But the streets won't keep this way for very long. In New York the temperature always changes within a few hours. Usually the temperature is from about 25°F to 40°F in winter, but sometimes it is below zero. It is difficult to dress properly for this kind of weather. If you dress in heavy clothes in the morning, the weather may be very hot later. If you dress in light clothes because the morning is warm, the weather may be quite cold in the afternoon. So New Yorkers often say to visitors: “If you don't like our weather, wait a minute, it will change.”

　　The snow will melt and then the streets will be covered with mud and water. Before cleaners can clean the streets, the water has all changed to ice. Then you can't drive or walk. Cars are sliding all over the streets and so are people. (167 words)

Autumn starts in September, and goes on to November. The weather can be quite warm in autumn. Winter lasts from December to February, and is very cold. You need to wear lots of warm clothes.

　　 The story below is a true story that happened in September.

　　 During the month of September, a dear friend of mine lost her husband suddenly in an accident. The tragedy was a great shock to everyone.

　　 This accident was sudden and certainly unexpected. It made me realize the fact that you just don’t know when a loved one is no longer going to be with you.

What words could I say to help her?Sometimes words just can’t express our feelings. Sometimes our actions are much more meaningful than words. So I gave her a hug(擁抱)…

　　 Studying abroad is an amazing experience, especially when you come to Australia as an overseas( 外國的 ) high school student. You can have a lot of fun here, especially on holidays.

There are many festivals in Australia. The most important one is obviously Christmas. Each year, the summer holidays at every high school last about two months from the beginning of December to February, which covers the Christmas time.

It is quite easy to find a part-time job at Christmas. Students often take part in another major social activity. They go to the beach to have fun in the sunshine.
