SECTION B ENGLISH TO CHINESE

My own first hint of spring comes when the greatest Balm of Gilead tree across the meadow from my kitchen window puts on a golden corona of buds. Then I know I can put on boots and mittens to climb to where the alpine flowerets are pushing their mauve way up through the snow, hundreds of hundreds of tiny blossoms clustered together, their feel trembling in icy moss. Lower along the creek ways and in boggy places beside the roads, the little red willows make purple shadows on the blue-white snow. The air is still chill (it is March), but the promise has been made. The creeks are low, but air pockets under the ice let small chuckling sounds through. April comes, fierce with buffeting winds and lashings of icy rain, and one begins to see the earth, brown and soggy beneath honeycombed snow banks. Horses, shaggy in their winter coats, roll in the fields, leaving patches of hair that the birds will pick up for their nests. Little colts appear as if by magic, and sheep men are up night after night with the lambing. As the laden cold begins to life, people seem warmer, too. "Think sprig will ever come." They shout to one another. The next day, it snows, covering the first timid crocuses, and the startled birds complain plaintively. Then a week of sunshine, pale and wan perhaps, but sun, nevertheless. And the earth knows. The snow retreats, exposing long, humped tunnels of pocket gophers and moles. Tiny two-bladed plants poke their way up, strong enough to push aside good-sized pebbles.
