II. Sample Essay: Describing the Sunrise at the Beach
For someone born and raised by the sea like me, no matter how far I go, every moment of my homeland's sea will be deeply etched in my mind. From the rising sun to the falling night, the sea always carries a distinct charm. And the most impressive to me is the sea at sunrise.
Watching the early morning sea has long been a habit of the coastal residents. Every morning, strolling along the rows of leaning coconut trees, feeling the cool and refreshing breeze, we head straight to the beach. Crossing the long, straight stretches of sand. The morning sand is so smooth; it holds the fresh scent of the morning, the touch of the vast ocean. Taking a deep breath to feel it, the air still carries the salty aroma of the sea, not the least bit unpleasant, but incredibly fresh and pleasant. As we approach the sea, the anticipation for that magnificent scene grows. The azure color of the sea extends endlessly. Each gentle wave twists and turns, rushing to the shore. Unlike the waves in the evening, the sunrise waves seem much gentler. The reddish sun gradually rises from the water's surface, and the locals here begin a new day, painting the entire water surface with a pink hue.
My hometown sea is a tourist destination, so it's no stranger to the sight of tourists swimming in the early morning. Once, I asked a tourist why they enjoyed swimming in the sea so much in the early morning, and the answer I received was: Immersing themselves in the freshness of the sea in the morning makes them feel purified, letting go of all worries and starting a new day with more joy. What a great perspective! From a distance, the faint white sails of the fishermen gradually approach the shore, returning after a long and arduous time at sea. The boat gently steers through the waves toward the shore, carrying a heavy load of fresh seafood. Some will be taken to the market, while others will be sold directly at the shore. The voices of buyers and sellers create a lively atmosphere across the entire sky.
