"On summer evenings after the rain, I always look forward to the singing cicadas. Hey, they wake up all the stars, and the moonlight feels so cool!"
"A peaceful summer night, stars twinkling across the sky... Even the cicadas have gone to sleep, sleeping soundly..."
In class, the teacher asked, "What comes to mind when you think of summer?"
The students put their little brains to work...
"Cicadas are always going 'know it, know it.'"
"Great! That's something you hear!"
"Watermelon, popsicles, mung bean soup, sour plum drink... and how stinky our brothers are when they come back from military training!"
"Ew, gross!" the students cried, making hushing noises.
"On nights when the power suddenly goes out, the stars over the city shine so brightly."
"Great, that's something you see! What else, what else?"
"Swimming pools always smell like bleach. Also, there's a strange smell before it rains."
"That's right, it smells like damp earth, and the dragonflies always fly low too!"
"Mosquitoes! Those awful mosquitoes! And bamboo sleeping mats! I hate bamboo sleeping mats!"
"What's wrong with bamboo sleeping mats?"
"They leave marks on your face!"
"Hahaha..." The whole class burst into laughter.
The teacher wrote a title on the blackboard: Summer Time Capsule.
Theme: Memories that belong to summer
