The sky outside is very dark and the wind blows the trees. The trees have to blend their back. There is no sun in the sky. It is two o’clock in the afternoon, but it look like the time of seven o’clock at dusk. Suddenly, there is a lightening and then following several. Later the thunder also comes. It is very terrible. The storm is coming.
外面的天空很黑,风一直吹着树木,把树都吹弯了腰。太阳也不见了。现在才下午两点钟,但是看起来就像是傍晚七点钟的样子。突然,一道闪电打了下来,接着还打了几次。后面也打雷了。真的很恐怖。暴风雨就要来了。
