The different seasons

The weather is a crucial factor for ours feeling of comfort. I strongly believe that we should live in a place where the climate is just for us. For me, I have lived in Canton which only has two seasons for about 6 years. But I was always missing the day I lived in the north of China because there are four seasons there. Why do I love the season to be diverse? There are three main reasons for that question.
Firstly, varied weather or climate broadens the range of our pastimes. Take my hometown, Xinxiang, China as an example. In my childhood, my grandparents always fire up a stove in winter so we can all sit around the stove to warm ourselves. At that time, my grandmother always tells some fantastic stories to me and my sister. I believe that’s the happiest time in my life. But when I moved to Canton, there is no chance to see snow so that I can’t enjoy the storytelling around the stove. In addition, I live skating very much, but I can only skate in the Skate room.
Secondly, the change of climate gives us opportunities to wear many kinds of clothes. See if you see the same type of clothes all year long, you may be tired of seeing the monotonous dressing. Wearing various clothes can be a great attraction for girls and, looking at others’ fashion, felling the change of the seasons is also attractive for me.
Thirdly, changing of the climates and seasons is very beneficial to our health. A doctor once said that when winter comes our body’s metabolism slows down and when summer comes it speeds up, so that our body can maintain a good rhythm. I think these words make sense. Also, the snows in the winter can provide enough water and nutrition to the crops.
Some of my friends prefer the places like Miami to spend thanks giving break time, but I do not agree with them. After experiencing summer and fall at UIUC, why not continually enjoy the beautiful winter? I love the different seasons in this university, what about you?
