Your paragraph should be about 7-10 sentences long.Example Answer:My favorite season is autumn. I love it because the weather is cool and comfortable, which is perfect for outdoor activities. During autumn, I enjoy going on long walks in the park where I can see the beautiful colors of the leaves changing from green to shades of orange, red, and yellow. Another activity I like is picking apples with my family; we visit an orchard and spend the day collecting fresh, juicy apples that we later use to make delicious pies and cider. The crisp air and the cozy atmosphere of autumn always make me feel happy and relaxed. It’s a time when nature puts on a stunning show, and I can’t help but appreciate the beauty around me.Explanation:In the example provided, the writer has introduced their favorite season, autumn, and given a reason why they prefer it, focusing on the comfortable temperature. They have then described two specific activities that are enjoyable in autumn, such as taking walks and apple picking, which adds personal interest and detail to the text.

说起老鼠的英文，我们学过mouse 和rat这两个词有什么区别？让我们一起来看看。

首先，mouse 是通常指体积比较小的家鼠或者小白鼠，我们熟悉的迪士尼老板Mickey Mouse 和老板娘Minnie Mouse。

而rat 比mouse 体积大，被归为害虫的大老鼠，带有贬义的含义，所以西方人通常用来形容某事物或人的邪恶、卑鄙。

其次，从行为上分析，mouse好奇（curious），对任何新事物新环境都有兴趣，并会去探索；而rat谨慎（cautious），对任何新事物新环境都小心翼翼，知道它确认自身安全后才会进行探索。

从生活习惯和繁殖习性角度来看，mouse几乎能吃任何东西，但更喜欢谷物和植物，会在食物源附近找一隐蔽处建窝，一只雌性mouse一年中最多可生育十次，每次可产5-6只宝宝，而mouse宝宝在六周后就具备了繁殖能力，每只mouse的寿命大致在9-12个月（前提是不被人类或猫等天敌捉住O(∩_∩)O~）；rat也可以吃任何东西，不过更喜欢新鲜的谷类和肉类食物，喜欢在建筑物、围栏、植物等下面挖洞，一只雌性rat一年可生育六次（主要在春季），每次可产12只宝宝，而这些宝宝三个月后就具备了繁殖能力（都是超生能手⊙﹏⊙b），其寿命在1-1.5年。

在英语中，Mouse相关表达更多为中性语气，rat则偏向贬义。

或者说两个都算贬义，但rat程度更高。

在日常生活的运用当中，mouse（复数mice）常被用来比喻胆小的人。

如，在激励某人面对困难要勇往直前时，可以说Let them see that you are a man, not a mouse!（让他们见识见识你是个真汉子，不是懦夫！）；或Show your enemies that you are men, not mice!（让敌人知道，你们是男子汉，不是一群胆小鬼！），使对方摒弃刚萌生出来的要退却的思想。

还可以用来损对方，如Are you a man or a mouse?（你是男子汉还是胆小鬼？）Mouse是胆小鬼、懦夫，而rat（复数rats）在英语中的待遇就更差了，常被用来描述卑鄙的人，如You ripped me off, you dirty rat!（你忽悠了我，你这个卑鄙小人！）。
