Weather & Seasons

Speaking Part 1

Q1: What kind of weather do you like?

I am partial to a moderate climate, not too hot or too cold. I find such weather quite comfortable and soothing. It’s perfect for outdoor activities without causing any discomfort.

• Partial to → Có thiên hướng, thích

• Moderate climate → Khí hậu ôn hòa

• Soothing → Dễ chịu, giảm căng thẳng

Q2: How does the weather affect your mood?

I think the weather has a significant influence on my mood. For instance, sunny days tend to make me feel more energetic and productive, whereas gloomy, overcast days can sometimes leave me feeling downcast and less motivated.

• Significant influence → Ảnh hưởng lớn

• Energetic and productive → Tràn đầy năng lượng và hiệu quả

• Downcast → Cảm thấy buồn bã, chán chường

Q3: What is your favourite season and why?

My favourite season would definitely be spring. It’s the season of rebirth and renewal. I love witnessing the transformation of nature – flowers blooming, trees budding – it’s like the world is waking up from a long sleep.

• Rebirth and renewal → Sự hồi sinh và đổi mới

• Witnessing the transformation → Chứng kiến sự biến đổi

• Waking up from a long sleep → Thức giấc sau giấc ngủ dài
