It was the first day of April, 这是四月的第一天 but Mother Nature hadn't gotten the message. 可是大自然母亲却似乎忘了送来春天的消息 Like some bad April Fool's Day joke 就像愚人节的一些糟糕的玩笑一样 the ground was hard and frozen when I walked outside. 我走到户外，发现大地干涸，霜冻未消 The grass and few daffodils that had bloomed were covered in frost. 只有几株刚萌芽的小草和水仙，被覆盖在寒霜之下 The single dandelion that had popped its head through the ground 一株孤零零的蒲公英好不容易从泥土里钻出头来 had closed up again in the below freezing cold. 却遇到零度以下的严寒，只得又萎缩起来 I watched the sun peeking over the trees 我看着太阳从树林背后窥视着大地 and wondered if Spring was ever going to arrive. 心里怀疑着，春天真的会来临吗 As the day wore on, however, 可是，随着白昼渐暖 the sun began to warm the cold air. 太阳开始给寒冷的空气加温 The frost slowly receded on my car windows 车窗上的白霜慢慢消融 and the grass turned wet 小草变得湿润起来 as the temperatures crept above freezing. |
