skiing, snowboarding etc. In Hungary there arent very
high mountains so people go abroad skiing.
I like spring a lot because after the long cold, wet and
foggy days it is warm again. Trees and bushes are full of
blossom. You can see lovely spring flowers everywhere.
The weather is quite changeable especially in April. It
often rains and there can be hard winds too. Sometimes
its cloudy but most of the time it is warm and sunny.
My favourite season is summer. It is very hot in July and
August. Sometimes there are quick showers or rainstorms
with thunder and lightning. There are lots of fruit in
summer.
Children prefer the summer to all other seasons because
there is no school and we can take our holidays.

Match the pictures to the words.
