The correct response is:

The tilt causes the sun to shine more directly on the part of the earth where it is summer and less directly where it is winter.

This means that during summer, the hemisphere tilted towards the sun receives more direct sunlight, leading to warmer temperatures, while the hemisphere tilted away receives sunlight at a more oblique angle, resulting in cooler temperatures.
