Childhood I was born in a quiet village. It belongs to subtropical monsoon climate zone, moderate climate, and distinctive four seasons, where almost people make a living by farming and fishery. When I was a young girl, I often went to the fishpond, that was managed by my uncle, to have fishes and lobsters with my counsin. Around fishponds, farmland are usually cultivated with many kinds of crops, whose landscape will change with seasons. I think the summer days impress me deeply in my childhood. In China, we have the summer holiday, and child often pay all time on playing in nature. It is the time to have sweet fruits. You can pick peaches as much as you want by climbing a tree or just using a long stick to get them. Moreover, most children are really fond of fishing lobsters and catching loach by the river together. We usually use earthworms as bait to attract lobsters and they are easy to take the bait. But catching loach is really difficult with only our hands. Funnily enough, a nursery song named Catching Loach was widely circulated among children at that time. In my hometown, there is also rich in lotus seedpod and lotus sprout in summer. We often row the boat in the pool surrounded by endless lotus leaves, in which you can also find a kind of wild fruit named water caltrop that can be eaten freshly, and it is better to enjoy them after cooked if they are too hard to chew. So tasty and soft they are! When summer comes, I miss the good old days and my childhood companions very much. I really know that I can not come back any more, with time goes by, everything changes and people do so.
