오늘의 질문: 한국 가을 하면 떠오르는 대표적인 자연 현상은 무엇일까요?

한국의 가을은 정말 특별해요. 하늘은 맑고 바람은 시원하게 불어옵니다. 이맘때 자주 쓰는 말 중 하나가 청명하다예요. 청명한 날씨는 하늘이 맑고 깨끗할 때 사용합니다.

가을 날씨는 낮과 밤의 기온 차이가 큰데, 아침이나 저녁에 느끼는 약간 추운 느낌을 쌀쌀하다라고 해요. 이렇게 기온이 변화하는 시기를 환절기라고 부르죠. 환절기에는 감기에 걸리기 쉬우니까 건강을 잘 챙겨야 합니다.

그리고 가을 하면 빼놓을 수 없는 것이 바로 단풍입니다. 나뭇잎이 빨갛고 노랗게 물드는 모습을 보고 많은 사람들이 단풍 구경을 하러 산으로 가죠. 단풍은 한국 가을의 대표적인 자연 현상입니다.

translation:
Over 20 years ago, I was still a teenager. I turned on the color TV my family bought and noticed the 555 Hong Kong-Beijing Rally. I was shocked to find out that you can drive a car like that. So I made up my mind to become a rally driver as well when I grow up. In 1999, The World Rally Championship was held in China. I took the train to Beijing to watch the championship without telling my family. When the rally cars whizzed past me, it became certain that this would be my passion, and I’d keep striving for it. Eventually, I did become a rally driver. I put on the helmet and fasten the seatbelt. Listening to the co-driver’s pace notes, I am like a newborn. Now I could finally compete with the best Chinese drivers that I have only seen on TV before. My co-driver and I were getting better and stronger as well.
Bayanbulak is 4,000 km above sea level and encompasses dangerous cliffs, forests, and snowy mountains. The highest honor of Chinese racing is to win the Bayanbulak championship. I won five times in a row. That year I was 32.
