Describing a season
Describe your favourite season in your country. You should say
- when that season is
- what the weather is like at that time of year
- how that season is different from other seasons
- and why it is your favourite season.
My favourite season in England is winter. A typical English winter would last
around 4 or 5 months between November and March, but when I say that I like
the winter, I’m really thinking about the coldest month or two each year.
During those really wintry months, the temperature drops below zero and it
often snows. Over the last few years we’ve had periods of quite heavy
snowfall, to the extent that roads have been blocked and schools have had to
close. Last winter I remember looking out of the window one morning and
seeing everything covered in a layer of white. Obviously the snow is what
differentiates winter from the other seasons, but when it doesn’t snow there
isn’t much difference between winter, autumn and spring; winter is just a bit
colder. The reason I’ve chosen winter as my favourite season is because I like
the snow. I live near the countryside, and the landscape looks beautiful when
everything is covered in white. We also celebrate Christmas and New Year in
the winter, and these are my favourite festivals.
