When summer arrives, it turns hot very quickly. Most of the Quebecers go on vacation and visit different places in summer. It is the greatest season to enjoy hiking (远足) and biking.
After the summer, autumn stays with people until (直到) the first snowfall. It is the most colorful season. You can see red, orange, yellow and green leaves. Visiting a farm or picking your own fruit and vegetables is a great family activity (活动).
