Usually when I say “Washington”, people think I’m talking about Washington D.C. No! The USA has two Washingtons. Mine is on the other side of the country.
Even my Chinese students love couple of things from Washington without knowing it. Washington is known for being a state with beautiful sights, full of mountains, lakes and forests.
In my hometown, it usually rains all through the fall, winter and spring months, leaving us three months in the summer of beautiful sunshine. We have hot and cold weather but it’s never too extreme (极端的). In the mountains we usually get some great snow, and so lots of us go snowboarding, skiing or snowmobiling during the winter months.
During the summer, we like to spend time outdoors. We might go hiking or go to the beach. While the beaches in Washington and the next-door state of Oregon don’t quite compare (与…相比) with the beaches in California or Florida, they still have some pretty natural scenery.
29. What does the writer do according to the passage?

reporter
