3月12日植树节

3月12日是植树节。这一天，天空中的白云犹如扬帆起航的轻舟，慢慢地浮动。太阳公公也暖洋洋地照着大地。小兰肩扛铁铲，小明一手拿着买来的树苗，另一手提着水桶，两个人高高兴兴地去公园后山植树。

他们俩到了公园后山一看，哇!人可真多呀!只见三五成群的人们有的在挖坑，有的在填土，还有的在浇水。大家干得热火朝天。小明和小兰也找了个位置，植起树来。小兰先两手紧握铁铲，卖力地挖起坑来。只见她把挖起的土堆在土坑旁边。

小明看土坑差不多深了，就小心翼翼地把树苗的根放在大小合适的土坑里，蹲着身子，两手扶住小树苗。这时，小兰又小心地用土坑旁边的一小堆土把放着树苗的坑填平。小明站起身子，拿起水桶去打来了一桶水，将水浇在土坑上。树栽好了，小树苗笔直地站在了土地上。

一阵春风吹来，他们俩感到了丝丝凉意，都用手擦了擦脸上的汗水。两只“小花猫”你看看我，我看看你，都禁不住哈哈大笑了起来，笑声弥漫了整个公园的后山。

March 12 is the Arbor Day. On this day, the white clouds in the sky float slowly like a canoe sailing. Father Sun is also shining warmly on the earth. Xiao Lan carried a shovel on his shoulders, Xiao Ming held the bought sapling in one hand and a bucket in the other. The two happily went to the back mountain of the park to plant trees.

The two of them went to the back hill of the park and saw, wow! There are so many people! I saw small groups of people digging holes, some filling soil, and some watering. Everyone is working hard. Xiao Ming and Xiao Lan also found a location and planted trees. Xiao Lan first squeezed the shovel with both hands and digged up the hole with great effort. I saw that she piled up the dirt next to the pit.

Seeing that the pit was almost deep, Xiao Ming carefully placed the roots of the sapling in a suitable size pit, squatting down, and holding the sapling with both hands. At this time, Xiaolan carefully filled the hole with the saplings with a small pile of soil next to the soil hole. Xiao Ming stood up, picked up a bucket, fetched a bucket of water, and poured the water on the soil pit. The tree was planted, and the young sapling stood upright on the ground.

A spring breeze blew, and the two of them felt a bit of coolness, and both wiped the sweat from their faces with their hands. The two "little cats" look at me and I look at you. They can't help but laugh, and the laughter fills the back mountains of the park.
