Some countries never have snow and some have only a little on the top of very high mountains. In the north of England, there is quite a lot of snow every winter, but in the south of England, there is usually little.

Where a student from a warm country comes to England in autumn for the first time, he feels cool at first. There are often dark clouds; grey sky and cold rain in England in autumn, and most students from warm countries do not like these.

But snow is different. Though (尽管) it is cold. It is also beautiful. Perhaps, after several dark mornings, the student wakes up one day, and there is a lot of light in his room. He thinks "Is it so late?" and jumps out of the bed. But no. it is not very late. He looks out of the window and there is snow on the ground and on the houses and everywhere. The light of his room comes from the clean beautiful snow.
