We were just falling asleep when we heard something unusual. “ Maybe it is just a small animal,” I said. Steve said nothing, but I could feel he was frightened.

Well, Leap Year happens only once every four years. And it has 366 days instead of (而不是 ) the usual 365. In a Leap Year, we have 29 days in February, while in a usual year we have only 28 days. Why do we have a Leap Year? We have a Leap Year so we can keep the calendar (日歷 ) in step with the seasons. The calendar is a kind of clock for the whole year. But how long is a year? A calendar year is 365 days. However, a true year is actually 365 days, 5 hours, 48 minutes and 46 seconds long. That’ s the time it takes the earth to travel around the sun.
