A: what do you do in summer?

B: I love going out into the countryside for walks or bike ride. I love being out in the fresh summer air. How about you?

A: I don’t often go for walks, but I either play sports outside-you know, tennis or badminton-or just sit in the sunshine and read a good book.

B; what do you do in winter?

A; well, I play sports indoors quite often. If I’m feeling lazy, I just watch a film at home. I prefer summer to winter.

B; I think most people do. I like wearing nice, colorful clothes in summer-you know, a nice dress or skirt. It’s too cold for those kinds of clothes in winter.

A; yes. I like wearing shorts in summer. My legs would freeze!

B: do you think we’ll have a nice summer this year?

A; thanks to global wamp3ing, it could be hotter than ever!

A: what are the seasons like in your city?

B: summers is hot and usually lasts a long time. Winters are short, but cold, wet, and windy. I love the summers in my city, but I hate the wintertime.

A: does it ever rain in summer?

B: we usually get a big thunderstomp3 every two weeks, but apart from that, summers are dry. Thunderstomp3s make the air fresh again, so most people don’t mind then.

A: what are spring and autumn like?

B; I like spring because flowers bloom and trees grow leaves again. In spring, the weather is very changeable-sometimes cold, sometimes wamp3. It’s usually windy with some rain. Autumn is usually sunny and dry, but it’s gradually gets colder as winter arrives. What are the seasons like in you city?

A; well, I live in the southern hemisphere, so our summertime is your wintertime, and vice versa. We get some rain in every season, but most is in winter. In winter, it sometimes gets cold, but our winters are usually quite mild. Summers are wamp3, but not hot. Spring and autumn are both very short-sometimes just a few weeks each. The weather is very changeable then-just like spring in your city.

B; do you usually go on a summer holiday?

A; no, I don’t. I go on a winter holiday instead. I go somewhere wamp3.

B: I usually go on holiday during the spring or the autumn. I try to go somewhere where the weather is more reliable than in my city.
