The next day it was just as beautiful; there was a slight wind that gently moved the leaves on the trees, and you could smell the spring in the air. “ Life is grand” I thought as I walked in Kensington Gardens. It was a straight road and I found the way quite easily. When I got my first sight of the gardens the beauty of it nearby took my breath away. The trees were just bursting into leaf, fresh and green and lovely, and there were beds of spring flowers, red and yellow and blue, in the beautiful, smooth grass under the trees. People in light spring clothes were walking about, and, to my surprise, they walked not only along the paths but also across the grass, and no one said a word to them about it. I had never seen such a thing before. * Questions: 1. What is the weather like in London according to the general opinion abroad? 2.
