Just look at the cycle(循环) of the seasons.Trees bud(发芽) in spring and in summer their leaves turn green.In autumn,their leaves start to fall onto the ground.When winter arrives,there are no leaves on trees.Next spring the cycle begins again.Since we know there are cycles in nature,we can prepare for them.We know it is colder in winter and hotter in summer,so we can dress properly.
