1. 因为冬雪对农作物越冬是有帮助的。在寒风呼啸的冬季，地面上的雪就像一条又厚又软的棉被，覆盖在越冬的作物之上，防止了土壤中的热量向外散发，又阻止了外面冷空气的侵入，为越冬作物营造了一个温暖适宜的生长环境，保护其安全过冬。

1. Because winter snow is helpful for the overwintering of crops. During the winter when the cold wind howls, the snow on the ground is like a thick and soft quilt, covering the crops overwintering on the ground. It prevents the heat in the soil from escaping outward and also blocks the intrusion of cold outside air, creating a warm and suitable growth environment for the overwintering crops, protecting them from safely passing the winter.

2. 落雪勿冷，融雪冷。

2. Snowfall is not cold, melted snow is cold.

3. 瑞雪的含义是：冬雪对农作物越冬是有帮助的，冬天里下的雪是“瑞雪”。

5. The winter snow eliminates the grass around, leading to more fertilizer and fewer pests the following year.

6. 积雪还阻塞了地表空气的流通，可使一部分在土壤中越冬的害虫窒息而死。雪融化时，由于要消耗大量的热量，而使土壤温度骤然降低，此时可把土壤表面与作物根茬里的害虫和虫卵冻死，使农作物生长时的虫害大大减少。

6. The snow also blocks the circulation of air at the surface, which can cause some overwintering pests in the soil to asphyxiate and die. When the snow melts, due to the large amount of heat it consumes, the soil temperature drops sharply. At this time, the pests and eggs in the soil surface and the stubble of crops can be frozen to death, greatly reducing the pest damage to the crops during their growth.

9. The conclusion can be drawn from the rural proverbs. As the proverbs say, "When the frosty snow covers the ground, the years will be doubled," "If it snows on the day of the minor snow, it will be a bountiful year the following year," "If wheat is covered with three layers of snow in winter, one can sleep on steamed buns the following year," etc., all of these indicate that the snow falling in winter is a "auspicious snow."

10. “瑞雪兆丰年”，实际上就是人们发自内心对雪的赞叹，也寄托了人们美好的愿望。积雪，好象一条奇妙的地毯，铺盖在大地上，使地面温度不致因冬季的严寒而降得太低。积雪的这种保温作用，是和它本身的特性分不开的。

10. "A timely snow promises a bountiful harvest" actually reflects people's heartfelt admiration for snow and also embodies their best wishes. Snowfall resembles a wonderful carpet, covering the earth and preventing the ground temperature from dropping too low due to the severe cold of winter. This insulating effect of snow is inseparable from its own characteristics.

12. Although the words "auspicious snow" are not present in the poems of Li Shimin and Li Longji, they do convey the meaning of预示ing a bountiful harvest. In the 19th year of the Zhenyuan era of the Tang Dezong (Emperor Dezong) (唐德宗贞元十九年），

13. 此年关中大旱，百姓困苦，而贪官却聚敛不已，韩愈忧心如焚，写下《御史台上论天旱人饥状》上书朝廷，为民请命，其中有“今瑞雪频降，来年必丰”之句。

14. 今年大雪飘，明年收成好。

14. This year heavy snowfall, next year good harvest.

15. 附：“瑞雪兆丰年”是农谚，如“俗话说，瑞雪兆丰年”，从这可看出该句本来没有前面的上联。就算有,那也是后人为了听着和谐自己加上去的。

15. Appendix: "A timely snow promises a bountiful harvest" is an agricultural proverb, as in "As the saying goes, a timely snow promises a bountiful harvest." From this, we can see that the sentence originally did not have an antithetical couplet before it. Even if there was one, it was likely added by later generations for the sake of harmony in sound.
