Love is a Leaf

Guidance for Reciting

Love is like a butterfly. It goes where and it pleases where it goes.

In the severe cold of winter,her heart is filled with warmth. Lovers see everything through the perspectives of love.

When out of love,the most pleasant spring will lose its luster.

Mossy green envelops her in the early spring,crispy and soft. A less careful caress may make it crinkle or crack.

When summer arrives,she becomes boats in the sea. Some go down,and some stay on top…

In autumn,her love is fervent,and becoming mature…

爱是一片叶子

诵读导言

爱情就像一只蝴蝶,它喜欢飞到哪里,就把欢乐带到哪里。

即使是身处严冬,在她心中,也都春意浓浓。爱人,会从爱的角度来解释他们所面对的一切。

倘若失恋,多好的春天,也会黯淡无光。

初春的时候,她浑身绿茸茸的,又脆又嫩。倘谁一不小心,就会把她揉皱,捻出裂纹。

一到夏天,她就有如大海里的扁舟。有的沉沦,有的坚强……

秋天的时候,她不仅爱得炽热,也爱得日趋成熟……

口语点津

crispy有“酥脆的;清脆的”意思。大家知道“香酥鸭”怎么说吗?是crispy fried duck. crispy表示脆的,接下来让我们看看其他表示味道的词:酸:sour;苦:bitter;麻:sting;美味的:yummy;软:soft/tender。
