The four seasons (winter, spring, summer, autumn) have
a huge impact on how we lead our daily lives. This ranges from the
food we eat, the drinks we drink, the clothes we wear and the activities
we take part in. We even listen to different music, for example,
christmas carols in winter.
Winter - December, January, February
Spring - March, April, May
Summer - June, July, August
Autumn - September, October, November
Winter
During the winter months the current year ends and a new year starts.
The days are shorter and often very cold. Sometimes the precipitation
will fall as sleet and snow, and quite often we wake up in the morning
to frost and ice on the floor. Winter is usually cold and wet, however
it does differ in other parts of the world.
Spring
It's simple to know when spring is arriving. The sun rises in the
earlier hours of the morning and sets later on in the afternoon. The
days get slightly warmer. Spring flowers start to appear, birds start
building their nests and the farmers deliver new-born lambs.
Weather in spring is very varied. Some days it may be cold enough to
snow, and some days it is warm enough to play out in the garden. Spring
months can also be awfully windy. Weather varies though in spring,
worldwide.
Summer
Summer is something we usually all look forward to. The days become both
warmer and longer, the sun shines, and the school holidays provide us
plenty of time to go out and enjoy ourselves.
Although sunny weather is very fun and we can spend more time outside,
the sun's rays can harm our bodies. There are some things you need to do
to protect yourselves. You shouldn't ever look straight at the sun
because it will damage your eyes. Additionally, you have to protect your
skin from the suns rays so that you don't get sunburned. Summer weather
can vary, but if we are lucky, June, July and August will bring some
warm sunny days.
Autumn
Autumn is a season filled with change. Days become shorter and, although
it is often warm and sunny during the daytime, it can be cold at night.
In Autumn, leaves fall off the trees and hedges. Additionally, Autumn
can bring strong winds and a lot of rain.
