The Sun

Read about the sun, what it does, and why it is important for life on Earth in simple English.

1.1

The sun is a big, bright ball of fire in the sky. It gives us light and warmth. The sun is very important for life on Earth. Without the sun, it would be very cold and dark.

De zon is een grote, felle vuurbal aan de hemel. Het geeft ons licht en warmte. De zon is erg belangrijk voor het leven op aarde. Zonder de zon zou het erg koud en donker zijn.

1.2

The sun rises in the morning and sets in the evening. When the sun rises, the sky becomes bright. People wake up, eat breakfast, and start their day. The sun shines all day. At night, when the sun goes down, the sky becomes dark, and you can see stars and the moon.

De zon komt 's ochtends op en gaat 's avonds onder. Als de zon opkomt, wordt de lucht helder. Mensen worden wakker, ontbijten en beginnen hun dag. De zon schijnt de hele dag. 's Nachts, als de zon ondergaat, wordt de lucht donker en kun je de sterren en de maan zien.

1.3

The sun helps plants grow. Flowers, trees, and grass need sunlight to grow strong and healthy. Sunlight also helps fruits and vegetables become big and colorful. Without the sun, plants cannot grow.

De zon helpt planten groeien. Bloemen, bomen en gras hebben zonlicht nodig om sterk en gezond te groeien. Zonlicht helpt ook fruit en groenten groot en kleurrijk te worden. Zonder de zon kunnen planten niet groeien.

De zon
1.4

People need the sun too. Sunlight gives warmth. It helps our body make vitamin D, which is good for our bones and health. People feel happy when the sun shines because it makes the world bright.

Mensen hebben ook de zon nodig. Zonlicht geeft warmte. Het helpt ons lichaam vitamine D aan te maken, wat goed is voor onze botten en gezondheid. Mensen voelen zich blij als de zon schijnt omdat het de wereld helder maakt.

1.5

Sometimes, the sun can be very hot. On hot days, people wear hats, sunglasses, and light clothes. They drink water to stay cool. Animals rest in the shade of trees to avoid the hot sun.

Soms kan de zon erg heet zijn. Op warme dagen dragen mensen hoeden, zonnebrillen en lichte kleding. Ze drinken water om koel te blijven. Dieren rusten in de schaduw van bomen om de hete zon te vermijden.

1.6

The sun is always in the sky. It gives light, warmth, and energy to the Earth. It helps plants grow, keeps people warm, and makes the world bright and cheerful. Watching the sun rise or set can make people feel calm and happy.

De zon staat altijd aan de hemel. Ze geeft licht, warmte en energie aan de aarde. Ze helpt planten groeien, houdt mensen warm en maakt de wereld helder en vrolijk. Het kijken naar de zonsopgang of zonsondergang kan mensen rustig en gelukkig maken.
