瑞雪兆丰年（13）

A snow year, a rich year.

In the teeth of winter.

寒冬腊月

Beneath the bitter snows.

冰雪严寒

The weather is cold and the ground is frozen.

天寒地冻

Formal the close of the year

岁暮天寒

There is a chill in the air in early spring.

春寒料峭

But near at hand on the trees the snow was soft in bloom.

但是，就在近旁那些树上，雪轻轻地挂着，像开的花。

It snowed all right.

下了一夜雪。

So it was that he had his first sight of snow.

就那样, 他第一次见到了雪.

Snow banked all along the road.

道路边上堆积着雪。

Snow accumulated on the ground.

地上堆积了一层雪。

The doghouse was snowed under during the blizzard.

暴风雪袭击时，狗屋被雪覆盖了。

Little by little the snow disappeared.

雪渐渐消失。

Snow falls thick and fast.

瑞雪纷飞
