問題詳情：

    My family and I have visited our friend, Dennis, in Chicago several times in summer, but we hardly visited him in winter. It’s December now, and here we are in Chicago. We have been here for two weeks. It’s much colder in Chicago than in New Orleans at this time of year.

This winter has been very cold. It has snowed a lot and people have had trouble with their cars. Last night, it snowed again. Now there is 60cm of snow on the ground. This has been fun for me, but Dennis didn’t have fun this morning when his car got stuck(拋錨 )in snow. Schools have closed because students can’t get to school. Many people have stayed inside.

According to Dennis, spring and fall are lovely seasons here. In the spring time, everything comes alive. People seem happy and spend more time outside. The sun shines almost every day. Dennis says that the leaves turn orange, yellow and red in the fall. The weather is still warm and comfortable. People drive to the country in order to see the fall colors. This is our friend’s favorite season.

Summer is a good season in the north-central part of the United States, too. Our last visit was in the summer time. It was hot, but there were fun things to do. We went on picnics, swam a lot and had parties in Dennis’ backyard.

People’s lives change with the weather. My life would be different in Chicago. I’m glad that I don’t live here. Dennis likes Chicago, but he doesn’t like its winter, either.
