LEARN IN CONTEXT

Read and listen across several real contexts

This lesson uses the number and type of texts that fit the topic. Learn the same language across different situations instead of forcing everything into one dialogue.

Climate, seasons, plants, animals and scenery

林月
Wǒ zuótiān cóng Qīnghé Shān huílái le. Sìyuè báitiān yǐjīng tǐng nuǎn, zǎowǎn háishi yǒudiǎnr liáng.我昨天从青河山回来了。四月白天已经挺暖，早晚还是有点儿凉。I came back from Qinghe Mountain yesterday. In April the daytime is already quite warm, though mornings and evenings are still a little cool.
周可
Shān shàng xiànzài yǒu shénme hǎokàn de?山上现在有什么好看的？What is there to see on the mountain now?
林月
Hébiān de shù dōu lǜ le, shānpō shàng yě yǒu hěn duō xiǎo huā. Shàngwǔ yǒu yìdiǎn wù, xiàwǔ tàiyáng chūlái yǐhòu tèbié shūfu.河边的树都绿了，山坡上也有很多小花。上午有一点雾，下午太阳出来以后特别舒服。The trees by the river have all turned green, and there are many small flowers on the slopes. It was a little foggy in the morning, and very comfortable after the sun came out in the afternoon.
周可
Wǔyuè qù huì bú huì gèng nuǎn?五月去会不会更暖？Would it be warmer to go in May?
林月
Dāngdì lǚdiàn de rén shuō Wǔyuè yǔ huì duō yìxiē. Rúguǒ nǐ xǐhuan qíngtiān, Sìyuè xiàxún yě búcuò.当地旅店的人说五月雨会多一些。如果你喜欢晴天，四月下旬也不错。People at the local guesthouse said May gets more rain. If you like sunny weather, late April is also a good choice.
周可
Nà wǒ xiān kànkan tiānqì yùbào, zài juédìng shíjiān.那我先看看天气预报，再决定时间。Then I'll check the forecast first and decide on the timing afterward.
