Texas Surprise

Texas Surprise live in Montreal with my family. But, my dad often has to travel to Texas for work. In the winter, there is a lot of snow where l live. Texas is too warm for snow. One night, Dad called from Texas. “ Guess what?” he said. “ There is a snowstorm here. People are having so much fun. Most of them have never seen snow before! " “ They are sliding down hills. They are throwing snow-balls. They are building snowmen. They even closed all the schools for the day. All this because of 5 centimetres of snow! ”

德州惊喜 我和家人住在蒙特利尔。但是，我爸爸在冬天经常去德州工作，我住的地方有很多雪。德州太暖和，不适合下雪。 一天晚上，爸爸从德克萨斯州打来电话。“你猜怎么着?”他说。“这里有暴风雪。人们玩得很开心。他们中的大多数人以前从未见过雪!” “他们正从山上滑下来。他们正在扔雪球。他们正在堆雪人。他们甚至当天关闭了所有的学校。这一切都是因为5厘米厚的积雪!”

Dad also explained how the snow could be dangerous. He said that people in Texas didn't know how to drive in the snow because they were not used to it. While we were talking, I heard, " Acheww! " And then again, " Aaaacheeeewwww! " “ What's wrong, Dad?” I asked. “ They don't have heaters in the rooms here, ” he said. “ It's freezing! ” I could not believe it. Poor Dad was freezing in Texas while I was nice and warm here in Canada!

爸爸还解释了雪是如何危险的。他说德州人不知道怎么在雪地里开车，因为他们不习惯雪地。 我们正说话的时候，我听到“哇!”然后再次,“Aaaacheeeewwww !”“ 怎么了，爸爸?”我问。“ 这里的房间里没有暖气，”他说。“真冷!” 我简直不敢相信。可怜的爸爸在德克萨斯州冻得要死，而我在加拿大却又好又暖和!
