It was the first lesson after the summer holidays at a small school in England. The lesson was about the seasons of the year. “There are four seasons in a year”,said the teacher. “They are spring, summer, autumn and winter. In spring it `s warm and everything begins to grow. In summer it’s hot. In autumn there are many vegetables and much fruit. In winter it is cold and it often rains. Sometimes there is snow on the ground.” Here the teacher stopped and looked at one of the pupil, “Stop talking, Tom,” he said. “ Can you tell us when is the best time for apples?” “Yes, sir,” answered Tom. “It’s when the farmer is not at home and there is no dog in the garden.”
