六、任务型阅读。
阅读下面短文，根据短文内容回答问题或翻译画线部分。
We can try some different outdoor chores during different seasons.
In spring, we could grow some flowers or even trees. It's exciting to watch our beautiful plants grow. We will have a feeling of pride (自豪) when we look after them well.
On hot days, we could help wash the car. It always takes us some time to clean the wheels, the windows and other parts of the car, but we can finish the hard job with an ice cream!
In autumn, the most common outdoor chore is collecting leaves. When the wind comes, the leaves will be here and there. We could organize a fun race with some of our friends to see who will sweep up the biggest mountain of leaves!
Cold in winter? Don't waste time on computer games. After a heavy snowfall, we should help clean snow in our neighbourhood so that young kids can leave their homes for school easily.
Doing all of these chores might sound like a lot of work, but it can be fun. We may have a good time with our family and friends. We can also learn something about problem-solving, teamwork and so on. These life skills help us live independently (独立地).
