This day

这一天

The position where the sun is directly shining on the ground

太阳直射地面的位置

Arrive at the northernmost point of the year

到达一年最北端

It is the day with the shortest night and the longest day in the Northern Hemisphere

是北半球夜最短、昼最长的日子

After the Summer Solstice

夏至过后

The hottest days are not far away

三伏不远

At this time, the temperature is high and the humidity is high

此时气温高、湿度大

Strong air convection

空气对流旺盛

Thunderstorms are likely to occur in the afternoon and continue into the evening

午后至傍晚常易形成雷阵雨

This kind of rain comes suddenly and then disappears quickly

这种雨骤来疾去

The area affected by rainfall is not extensive

降雨范围不大

It is called "Summer Rain Crossing the Fields"

人们称之为“夏雨隔田坎”

At the time of the Summer Solstice, new wheat is ready for harvest

夏至时节，新麦登场

The rich aroma of wheat spreads throughout the fields

浓郁的麦香在田间弥漫

The joy of harvest swells within my heart

收获的喜悦在心中荡漾

When it's time for dinner, enjoy the freshly harvested wheat

等到用餐时分，吃上新麦

The smoke from the distant cooking fires is rising gently

远处的炊烟已袅袅而上

A sweet and juicy watermelon

一口甘甜多汁的西瓜

A bowl of refreshing and appetizing "yuyu"

一碗爽口开胃的“凉面鱼鱼”

Relieved the intense heat and comforted the fatigue

消解了酷热，抚慰了辛劳

The Summer Solstice has arrived

夏至已至

Let's muster our energy and keep working diligently

让我们抖擞精神、耕耘不辍

Welcome summer and all the wonderful things in life

迎接夏日与生命中的万般美好
