　It is now the time of the year when the cicadas come out. I really like cicadas. They are very big bugs, but they don’t bite so you can touch them without worrying. The only thing I don’t like about cicadas is that they are so noisy. There are many trees around my apartment where many cicadas live, so every morning they make a lot of noise. They are so loud that I have to close the windows if I want to sleep or watch TV, but then my apartment becomes very hot! I’m glad the cicadas will only stay for a short time.
