4. Read the text and mark the statements True (T), False (F), Not Stated (NS).

English people say "Other countries have a climate, in England we have weather". The weather changes more often in England than in other countries. British winters are mild and springs are cool because of the winds from the Atlantic Ocean. In spring sunshine often changes for showers during the day. So in spring one must have an umbrella or a raincoat in England. In spring everything is full of new life again. The days grow longer and warmer; there's green grass on the ground. Summer is the hottest season. It's time for holidays, when people go to the seaside for sunbathing and swimming. The summer nights are short, but they are wonderful.

Autumn isn't so nice. It's a season of winds and beautiful sunsets. The leaves turn yellow and reddish and the birds migrate to warm countries. The days become shorter. There is a short period of sunny weather in September called Indian summer. In England September and October are warm and dry, but November is the foggiest month. Nobody likes late autumn. Everything looks gloomy (мрачно).

In winter it sometimes rains and sometimes it snows. The rivers in England never freeze, that's why children there go skating very seldom.
