Writing an article about your favourite season
Jenny has written about her favourite season, summer.
My favourite season: summer
I live in Guangzhou. My favourite season is summer.
Everything is alive. The trees have a lot of green leaves, and they can help keep me cool on sunny days. There are also many beautiful flowers in summer. They smell really nice.
The best thing about summer is the summer holiday! I have lots of time to do fun things. I enjoy going swimming with my friends. I also love going running in the park with my best friend. It is great to exercise outdoors in summer, and it is nice to eat ice cream on a hot day. Sometimes I go to the beach with my family. I like to build sand castles there with my little sister.
Summer is the best for sure!

My favourite season
Dear Jerry,
My favourite season is autumn. It is the third season in a year. Autumn in China lasts from September to November. In autumn, everything changes. The trees change their colours from green to yellow, orange, and red, like a big, beautiful painting. The weather is windy and cool. We usually fly kites outside after school. Flying kites is exciting. On the weekend, we can take a picnic. It’s interesting.
We have Teachers’ Day on September 10th. It is time when we say thanks to our teachers. We have National Day on October 1st. It’s great to go on a family outing during the days.
Step 4: 扩充成文
The Mid-Autumn Festival is also in this season. Our family usually get together and have a big dinner on the Mid-Autumn Festival. It’s nice to eat mooncakes and enjoy the moon. We talk and play, with smile on everyone’s face.
Autumn is a time of harvest for the farmers. They are busy but happy at this time of year. Sometimes you can smell the delicious scent of fruits that are ripe for picking in the countryside.
I like autumn very much. It is my favourite season.
