　　M: When I say Ilive in Sweden, people always want to know about the seasons。

　　W: The seasons?

　　M: Yeah, you know,how cold it is in winter, why its light in the day is so short?

　　W: So what is it like?

　　M: Well, it’scold, very cold in winter, sometimes as cold as 26 degrees below centigrade.And of course, when you go out, you wrap up warm, but inside, in the houses, it’salways very warm, much warmer than at home. Swedish people always complain thatwhen they visit England, the houses are cold even when they’re in winter.

　　W: And what aboutthe darkness?

　　M: Oh, yeah,around Christmas time, there’s only one hour of daylight, so you really lookforward to the spring. It’s sometimes a bit depressing, but you’ll see the summersare amazing. From May to July in the north of Sweden, the sun never sets. It’sstill light at mid-night. You can walk in the mountains and read a newspaper。

　　W: Oh, yeah, theLand of the Mid-night Sun。

　　M: That’s right,but it’s wonderful. You want to stay up all night and the Sweden’s made themost of it. Often they start work early in summer and then leave at about 2 or3 in the afternoon so that they can really enjoy the long summer evenings. Theylike to work hard, but play hard too. I think Londoners work longer hours, but I’mnot sure this is a good thing。
