Reading Comprehension: The Weather in the UK
Read the following passage and then complete the task below:
The weather in England is mild, dry or wet and windy in
autumn. It is a beautiful season because all the leaves
change colour to a golden yellow, orangey-red and lots of
golden brown. It isn't usually cold in October and
November, but it is windy and wet some days. Some
mornings get foggy, making it difficult to dive into work
or walk to school. Winter, on the other hand, is usually
freezing. The temperature falls below zero. It may snow
once or twice and there are stormy winds. There is frost
on the pavements and roads in the early morning. Children like to slide down slopes
and build snowmen if it snows heavily enough. Spring is the best season because it is
warm again after the long, cold, wet and foggy winter days. All the trees are full of
new green leaves and you can see lovely spring flowers like daffodils everywhere. The
weather in spring is not always nice in April. It often rains and there can be strong
winds too. Sometimes it's cloudy, but it is warm and sunny most of the time. The best
season is summer with blue skies and lots of sunshine. It tends to get very hot in July
and August when all the fans come out at night and beach visits are more regular.
