Unit 5: seasons

It is best to think of it as a way of making the hot days feel more special.

…and so the seasons often overlap or don’t follow the standard pattern.

This brings with it plants shooting up all over the country, trees regaining their leaves and animals giving birth.

In general, it is usually quite wet and windy …

People swarm to beaches, sit out in parks and generally revel …

The leaves begin to change colour, transforming England’s landscape into an array of autumn colours.

This leads to frost in the mornings, ice on car windscreens and roads, and sometimes snow fall.

…with days in London getting as short as 8 hours at the end of December.
