The Seasons
Each year contains four seasons: spring, summer, autumn, and winter. Autumn is the third season of the year. In many countries, autumn is also known as fall. During this season, leaves will begin to turn red, yellow, and brown. After a while, the leaves fall to the ground or the wind blows them from the trees. In autumn, the weather keeps changing. It turns cooler and often rainy and windy. The strong wind breaks down the trees and people begin to wear warmer clothes as it gets colder. Mornings are often foggy and beautiful.
