　　12. Describe a river/lake

　　When I was studying in Harbin at the age of 11， I used to go to Songhua River for relaxation on weekends. Songhua River is named for the beautiful pines and flowers along either bank of it. In different seasons， the river shows varied characters. Spring is a comfortable time for people living there. Trees turn green and the river is peaceful. People would like to fly kites， read books and go boating there. Summer is full of passion. Many people swim in the river and enjoy sunbath on the bank. Autumn is a beautiful season. In the middle of the river， there lies an island named Sun Island. People can fish there and have barbeques. The most attractive season for the river is winter. After heavy snow， the whole river will turn white. At the temperature falls below zero， the water may freeze， which enables people to skate on the ice. I have really experienced good time there.
