We can see many pines at our school.They look like green towers from a distance,but theylook like umbrellas when you stand close to them. 

       Their trunks always stand straight.They have specail leaves like needles.They are green all the year around and they neve fall even in winter.

            In winter,when snow falls onto the leaves,soon a green tower will become a white one .They will forever stand straight no matter how much snow falls on them. 

      Perhaps that is the spirit of the pines.

        I like pines because they are never afraid of cold winter.I like their spirits.I will never give in when facing difficulties.
