My favourite season...

Explain which is your favourite season and why...

Example:

Hello everyone! My favourite season is summer because I love hot weather!!

I like to go for a walk with my friends and to go to the swimmingpool or the beach. I enjoy doing watersports like surf or windsurf and I go sunbathing too. I always go on holidays to the coast where I have an appartment. In the same building of my appartment there are a lot of friends and we usually go out dancing together.

I also like winter because one of my favourite sports is skiing, but in winter the weather is too cold and days are shorter, so I prefer summer.
Tell me about your favourite season!!

Philippa Robbins is a scientist. She lives in a flat in Oxford and she studies biology at the university. Every day she gets up at 6.30 and has three cups of coffee. She doesn't eat anything for breakfast. She starts work at her laboratory at 7.00, and she works until lunchtime. Then she goes for a short walk in the park. She usually finishes work at 6.00 but sometimes she doesn't finish until 10.00. In the evening she often eats in a restaurant, because she doesn't like cooking. Every winter she and her husband fly to America, where they visit an American laboratory. They stay in a friends' house for two weeks. They never want to go back to Oxford, because they love the weather!
