everything begins to grow . In summer it is hot and there are many flowers in the fields and

gardens . In Autumn there are many vegetables and much fruit . Everybody likes to eat fruit

. In summer it is cold and it often rains . Sometimes there is snow on the ground . “

. “ Now listen to me . Can you tell us when is the best time of apples ? “
