原文及翻译

During the winter, there is no work to do in the lawn or garden because they are covered in snow. But I need to keep the snow off my sidewalk and driveway. Whenever it snows, I use a shovel to clear the snow from the sidewalk and the driveway. Sometimes it snows a lot. If I didn't shovel the snow, it would soon be impossible to get into my house. 

冬天，草坪和花园里没有活可干，因为那里被雪覆盖着。但我需要把雪从人行道和车道上除掉。每当下雪时，我都会用铲子把人行道和车道上的雪铲掉。有时雪下得很大。如果我不铲雪，很快就进不了家了。

During the spring, the snow melts. I clean up my yard by sweeping away the dirt and by removing weeds from the lawn and garden. I also put flowers back into the garden. It's nice to see them again after the long, cold winter. When spring comes, the grass grows very quickly, so I need to cut the grass quite often. 

春天，雪融化了。我清扫了院子里的泥土，除去了草坪和花园里的杂草。我还把花放回了花园里。在漫长而寒冷的冬天之后再次看到它们真是太好了。春天来临时，草长得很快，所以我需要经常修剪草坪。

Working in the yard can be very satisfying work. It's so nice when the lawn and garden are looking green and healthy.

在院子里干活可以是非常令人满意的工作。当草坪和花园看起来绿意盎然、生机勃勃时，真是太好了。
