Summer in England is the better season of all. The sky is clear and blue. The sun shines brightly. But it is not pleasant to go out at noon because of the sun dazzles our eyes. The air is generally dry. It is very pleasant taking a walk in the morning when the country is cool, or again on the evening when the sunshine is not so heat, and the moon raises above the horizon. How beauty it is in summer in the countryside. There high in the sky, there has the moon which sheds it’s silver light together with thousand of little stars twinkling and twinkling. |
