Summer on the Farm

Summer on the Farm Last summer, I worked on my uncle's farm. I have never worked so hard in my life. Every day, I got up at 5 a. m. to feed the animals. The hardest work of all was called" haying" . That means gathering all the hay in the fields. Hay is like tall grass. The animals eat it. You need a huge amount to feed all the animals on the farm. A big machine cuts the hay and wraps it into big squares. The squares weigh at least 30 kilograms. You have to pick them up and throw them onto a big wagon. That summer, I lifted thousands of them.

农场的夏天 去年夏天，我在我叔叔的农场工作。我从来没有在我的生活中如此努力。每天，我早上5点起床、喂动物。 最辛苦的工作叫做“晒干草”。这意味着收集田里所有的干草。干草就像高高的草。动物们吃它。你需要大量的食物来喂养农场里所有的动物。 一台大机器割干草，然后把它包成大方块。这些方块至少有30公斤重。你得把它们捡起来扔到大马车上。 那年夏天，我举起了成千上万个方块。

When I got home at the end of the summer, none of my clothes fit me. I had grown such big muscles! That summer, l learned that hard work really pays off. Now I can't wait until next year!

夏天结束时我回到家，发现没有一件衣服适合我。我长出了这么大的肌肉!那年夏天，我明白了努力工作是会有回报的。现在我都等不及明年了!
