Another advantage of summer days

As I've mentioned before, many types of fruits ripen in China during the summer. That's a big advantage for people like me who love fruit.

Last Sunday, I found another advantage of summer days.

It was hot that day, so I had to wait to exercise outdoors till the sun was going down.

When I was cycling along the Huangpu River, I noticed the sky looked like a magnificent oil painting because of the light of the sunset. And it was changing with time.

I captured some of the view. You can watch the video here: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/p0b32vP_W40

But I have to say, it's not the most beautiful part, because at that time, I had only gotten my iPhone in hand and had to hold my bike while taking the video.

If you want to see this type of sunset in Shanghai in person, you need to come here in the summer. In other seasons, the sunsets from that point are still beautiful, but not with this kind of image quality.


之前说过,在中国,夏季是许多水果成熟的季节。对于像我这样喜欢水果的人来说,这是一个极大的好处。
上周日,我发现了夏日的一个好处。
那天天气很热,所以我不得不等到太阳开始西沉之后才去户外锻炼。
沿着黄浦江骑行时,我注意到天空因为夕阳呈现出一幅壮丽的油画般的景象。而且它还在随着时间的推移而不断变化。
我拍摄了一些画面。你可以在以下链接看到视频:https://www.youtube.com/shorts/p0b32vP_W40
但我不得不说,那并不是最美好的部分,因为当时我只带着手机,还得一边扶着自行车一边拍摄视频。
如果你想亲自在上海看到这种日落,那你得在夏季来这里才行。在其他季节,从那个地点看到的日落依然很美,但画质却不是这样的。

Does my correction reflect what you mean? Your Chinese version doesn’t seem (to me) to say exactly what you said in English, so I decided to use some “creative license” in my correction 🙂

Another advantage of summer days


Another advantage of summer days Another advantage of summer days

or: Another Nice Aspect of Summer (or Summertime) Another Nice Thing About Summer “Advantage” is correct but feels a bit unnatural to me in this context, maybe because “advantage” sounds a bit like a competition between seasons, or between choices. If you said “another advantage of staying in Shanghai in summertime,” then “advantage” would sound perfectly natural, because you’re comparing one choice to another. “Days” isn’t really necessary.

I agree with the other corrector, “image quality” describes a photograph or video, not about the real world.

In other seasons, the sunsets from that point are still beautiful, but not with this kind of image quality. In other seasons, the sunsets from that point are still beautiful, but not with this kind of quality.

'Image quality' is used to talk about the quality of a photograph, but you were talking about seeing the sunset in person at this part of the entry.
