Kite Flying-放风筝

Kite Flying
   August, September and October are the months of kites flying, because the wind blows north-westwards. During these months, many Wonderful kites are flying in the blue sky.
   One day as the school was over, Qin Bo, my classmate, called me accompanying him to have kite flying at the big grass field. I had not been flown kite for a long time. So I promised him at last, when I reached there at five, I found him waiting for me.
   Many boys were flying their kites higher in the sky. They were excited when they found their kites win another's. They shouted with joy and jumped up and down.
   Not long after, Qin Bo's kite was in the sky, but mine was not. I was so disappointed that I wanted to give up. But I thought how disgraceful I was. So I asked Qin Bo to exchange the kites. Oh! His kite was wonderful. It was so light that it flow higher than the kites of all. He told me why my kite could not fly because it was maderoughly; the head was heavy, and the end was light, I agreed and made up my mind to make a new kne that would fly high in the sky.
放风筝
   八月、九月、十月是放风筝的季节，因为这时的风是朝西北方向刮。在这几个月里，蓝色的天空中有许多美丽的风筝在飞翔。
   一天放学时，我的同桌秦波叫我陪他到草地上去放风筝。我好久没放风筝了，所以我答应了他。当我五点钟到那时，我发现他正在等我。
   许多男孩正在向高空中放风筝。当他们发现他们自己的风筝胜过其它风筝时都很激动。他们欢呼雀跃。
   不长时间，秦波的风筝升上天空，可是我的却没有。我非常失望，以致想放弃了。但是我想那该多丢脸呀。所以我要求秦波和我换风筝。噢！他的风筝可真好。它是那么轻盈以至飞过了所有的风筝。他告诉我为什么我的风筝飞不起来，是因为它制作得太粗糙，头重尾轻。我同意他的说法并决心做一个飞上高空的新风筝。
