Father seemed to have no hobbies but just took care of his family.
Since I left home for college, my father called me every Sunday at 9:00 a.m.
He was always interested in my life--how my family was doing. The calls even came when he and my mother were in Australia, England or Florida.
Nine years ago I bought my first house. My lather, 67 years old, spent three days painting my house, eight hours a day. All lie asked was a glass of iced tea, and that I hold a paintbrush for him and talk to him. But I was too busy with work to take the time to hold the paintbrush, or talk to my father.
Five years ago, my 71-year-old father spent five hours putting together a swing set (秋千) for my daughter. Again, all he asked was that I get him a glass of iced tea, and talk to him. But again, I had other jobs to do.
On the Sunday morning, 16 January 1995, my father telephoned me as usual. This time seemed forgetful. I had to get to church, and I cut the conversation short.
The call came at 4:40 a.m. which said father was sent to hospital in Florida. I got on a plane immediately. I vowed(发誓)that when I arrived, I would make up for the lost time, for I owed(欠)him a nice long talk.
I arrived in Florida at 6:00 a.m., but my father had passed away hours before. This time he did not have time to talk, or time to wait for me.

Winter is cold, with piles of snow,
When rain falls and no trees grow.
For kids it's the snow they desire,
And cups of cocoa before the fire.
When winter is gone, the grass grows,
Roses and trees, light wind blows,
The bees are buzzing, the birds are singing,
Sheep are grazing and cow bells are ringing.
And then the sun starts to shine too brightly,
It is so hot that fans are put on nightly.
And then it's off to the beach or pool,
Where people swim about just to keep cool.
All the leaves on the trees turn golden-brown,
And when on the ground make a big sound.
In autumn a lot of money he spends,
For clearing leaves on the backyards.
Each season has its own goods and its bads,
But since they are different I am glad.
