The Calendar written by Pam Holden

帕姆·霍尔顿的《日历》

A calendar helps us to find the date of a special day. What is the date of your birthday? The date is the name of the day, the month, and the year. What is the date today?

日历帮助我们找到一个特殊日子的日期。 你的生日是几号? 日期是日期、月份和年份的名称。 今天是几号?

There are 12 months in one year. A month is how long it takes for the moon to go around the earth once. The months are January, February, March, April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November, and December.

一年有12个月。 一个月是月球绕地球一周所需的时间。 月份分别是一月、二月、三月、四月、五月、六月、七月、八月、九月、十月、十一月和十二月。

There are seven days in a week. Can you say the names of all the days? They are Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.

一星期有七天。 你能说出所有日子的名字吗? 它们是星期一、星期二、星期三、星期四、星期五、星期六和星期天。

Saturday and Sunday are called the weekend because they come at the end of the week. We don't go to school on the weekend. There are different things to do on Saturday and Sunday.

星期六和星期天被称为周末，因为它们是一周的最后一天。 我们周末不去上学。 星期六和星期天有不同的事情要做。

A year is how long it takes the earth to go around the sun once. A year has 365 or 366 days. There are 52 weeks in a year. What year is it now? What will next year be called?

一年是地球绕太阳一周所需的时间。 一年有365天或366天。 一年有52个星期。 现在是哪一年?明年的名字叫什么?
