In winter I can have a very good time. I can enjoy skating, skiing, playing snowballs and sledging. Winter is the time for fun! In winter it snows much. Forests and fields are white with snow. They look wonderfull in winter! Snow sparkles in the sun. Frost paints on the windows and there are many icicles hanging from the roofs.
I think winter is a beautiful season! Перевод:
Зимой я могу проводить время очень хорошо. Я с удовольствием катаюсь на коньках, лыжах, санках и играю в снежки. Зима - время для веселья. Зимой много снега. Леса и поля белые. Зимой они выглядят великолепно. Снег сверкает на солнышке. Мороз разукрашивает окна, а с крыш свисают сосульки.
