Ⅳ. (2026淮安经开区开明中学月考)任务型阅读(主题:人与自然·热爱自然)
Seasons are the four main periods of the year, each with its own weather, plants and activities. In most parts of the world, spring starts in March and ends in May. The weather becomes warmer, and trees turn green. Flowers bloom, and birds sing loudly. People often go hiking, have picnics or plant trees during this season.
Summer usually lasts from June to August. It is the hottest season. Many people enjoy going to the beach, swimming in the pool or eating ice cream. Students have a long holiday, so they can travel with their families or play outdoor games. However, some places have heavy rain or typhoons in summer.
Autumn comes after summer, from September to November. The temperature drops, and the leaves change colour—they turn red, yellow and orange. Farmers are busy harvesting crops like rice and corn. It is also a great time for camping and enjoying the cool wind. Some people love autumn because of the Mid-Autumn Festival. Family members always gather to eat mooncakes.
Winter is from December to February. It is the coldest season. Many places get snow, and rivers may freeze. People wear thick coats, scarves and gloves to keep warm. Children like making snowmen and having snowball fights. During the winter holiday, people celebrate the Spring Festival with their loved ones.
Each season has its charm. Whether you like the warmth of spring, the fun of summer, the beauty of autumn or the
excitement of winter, there is always something to enjoy.
