There are four seasons in Europe.They are spring, summer, autumn or fall and winter. Each season lasts for about three months. Spring lasts from March until May. Summer begins around June and ends around August. Autumn is from September until November and Winter is from December until February.

It seems funny to see that it rains a lot of in summer. The temperature is around 21oC at the day time, but for the people there, it is hot enough. Lost of people go to beach to swim or just have too sun bathing. Summer is also the harvest time.

The opposite is winter. Don't try to wear thin clothes there, or you will be chilly cold. The temperature often drops to several degrees below zero. If you are lucky you may see snows every where.

You will see everything green in spring. The trees are full of leaves and the flowers are blooming everywhere. People often tahe a walk in the park to have fresh air. Well, everything is beautiful is spring.

Autumn is marked with falling leaves and strong winds. Bare trees everywhere and everything is dull. The temperature begins to drop because it is close to the winter time.

HOW TO PLANT RICE?

Planting is the job of farmers. Do you know to plant rice? Here are some steps how to plant rice. The first step is selecting the seeds. Choose the seeds which are completely dry. These seeds must have been stored at least 40 to 50 days in the storage.      The second step is seeding the seeds. Prepare the seedbed by hoeing and smoothening the soil in a watering area. Spread the fertilizer and mixed with the soil to make the soil fertile. Then make the seedlings ready by watering sufficiently in the surface of the seedlings. And finally spread the seeds.      The following step is cultivating soil. While you are doing the raise seedlings, hoe whole soil for planting. Plow the soil and then leave it for about one week to kill the grass. Plow the second time and spread the fertilizer. Mix the fertilizer with the soil thoroughly to make the fertile. Give water for about 3 cm above the surface of the soil to make the fertilizer settled in the soil.      The last step is moving the seeds from the seedling to the planting area. Pull out the seed carefully from the seedling and let the roof of the seed stick some soil. Pick two or three seeds and plant into the soil for about 3 or 4 cm in dept, make sure that the distance of each group of seeds is more or less 30 cm. Don't forget to spread the organic fertilizer during the planting of the seeds.

DISCOVERING THE KOMODO LIZARD

Two fishermen tied their boat up, hurried out of the boat and ran down of the streets their hometown 'We saw a dragon on Komodo, Island they shouted. 'We saw a dragon!' A man heard their shouts. He was an American named Douglas Burden. Burden was a naturalist. A naturalist is a person who tries to learn as much as he can about things that live. He believed that what the two men said but there was only one way to find out. He had to go to Komodo Island himself and brought back one of the dragons for people to see. So Douglas Burden and some friends sailed halfway around the world to the tiny island off the coast of Indonesia. When they reached the island they were afraid that the traps and cages they had with them would not be strong enough to hold the dragons. There were dragons on island. They weren't the same dragons people see in picture books and in children's stories., but they looked more like dragons than any other animal Burden had ever seen. They were really large lizards - some of them three meter long and as heavy as two men. Their legs were short and thick and on their feet were sharp claws like knives. Although they did not breathe fire like the dragon in story books, the lizard had yellow forked tongues that moved quickly in and out of their mouths. It was difficult and dangerous to catch the lizards. Sometimes the lizards attacked the men. Sometimes the men had to kill the lizards to save themselves. Finally, Burden and his friends caught two live Komodos and put them in cages on their ship. Then they sailed back to America. When the two dragons were put into the Brooklyn Zoo in New York City, people came from all over America to see them. Burden was pleased that so many people had a chance to see two live dragons. That was more than 45 years ago. Today there are no more live dragons anywhere in the world except on tiny island of Komodo. They still live there.

TIGERS

Tigers live in warm countries like India, Indonesia, and Malaysia. They do not like hot weather as it makes them very tired. They sleep in long grass caves and rumed building and even in swamps or shallow water and they came out to hunt at night. Tigers hunt alone and usually at night, hunt deer wild pig and also, smaller animals such monkeys, sometimes they attack bigger animals, such as buffaloes by springing on their backs and break their necks when it is difficult to find animals. Tigers move closer to villages and farms. Tigers are not very good a climbing trees they can spring up twelve feet or more on two branch of a tree and lie a long bough. A tiger usually has two or three cubs at a time though she may have as many as mix. They stay with their mother until they are two years old and during this time she trains them to hunt.
