I. Прочитайте и переведите текст.

Hurry, Spring!

I can’t wait for spring to come. I’m tired of winter. I’m tired of the snow. I’m bored of cold weather. And I’m sick and tired of winter coats and boots!

Just think! In a few weeks it won’t be winter any more. It will be spring. The weather won’t be cold and frosty. It’ll become warmer and more pleasant than in winter. It won’t snow any more. It’ll be much sunnier. I won’t have to stay indoors any more. I’ll go outside and walk with my friends. We’ll be able to ride bicycles and play baseball again.

Just imagine! In a few weeks our neighbourhood won’t look so sad and grey. The flowers will bloom and the trees will become green again with tiny soft leaves. The whole world will look happier, and every morning will be bright, fresh and full of life.

Our family will spend more time outdoors. My father will work in the yard. He’ll cut the grass and paint the fence. My mother will work in the garden. She will buy new flowers and plant them. I’ll help her.

On the weekends we won’t just sit in the living-room and watch TV. We’ll go for walks in the park and we’ll have picnics on Sunday afternoons. It’s so wonderful to enjoy the beauty of nature in the countryside on a lovely spring day together with all your family. I really can’t wait for the spring to come.

Hurry, Spring!
