早上拉开窗帘,纷纷扬扬的雪花簌簌而下,着实是惊喜了。据说伦敦是不常下大雪的,偶尔下点雪,没落到地面就没了。我想我是很幸运的,在伦敦度过的第一个冬天,便迎来了瑞雪。

这场雪下得那么认真,一起看看英国媒体都是怎么描述的吧。

6. Do you fancy yourself spending the holiday season leaving a tray of footsteps during long morning walks? Reading a book by the fire while the kids are building a snowman outside? Listening to the carols in a country church and then stopping for homemade hot chocolate? How about relaxing in a hot bath while watching snowflakes fall outside your windows? -Red Magazine

银装素裹中度过圣诞假期,想想都觉得暖乎乎的。"听听乡村教堂里的圣诞颂歌,停下来喝杯自制热巧克力。边泡热水澡边欣赏窗外落雪。" 想起去年在北海道泡露天温泉的情景,的确是无与伦比的享受了。

英国人常用的一个词 fancy,表达want的意思。如 Do you fancy a drink?

堆雪人:build a snowman

炉火旁读书:read a book by the fire

中途停下:stop for

欣赏落雪:watch snowflakes fall


一下雪,心都亮了。" We're all big kids at heart."  下雪快乐哦。
