A
There are only two seasons in some countries—the dry season and the rainy season. They are India, Vietnam and some countries in Africa. It’s never cold there and it doesn’t snow. When it is the dry season, it doesn’t rain at all. It’s very, very hot. All grass and leaves in the trees are yellow. Animals and people are very thirsty. It is a very difficult time for them! When it is the rainy season, the rain doesn’t stop. Some animals like it, but some don’t.
There is a place where there are no seasons at all. It is the Antarctic(南极). It is very cold all the year round. The people from all countries come there to learn about the coldest place, its animals and birds. But there are no trees, no flowers, no fruit there, so people can’t live there long.
