Henry liked Spring Holidays, because he liked the weather and St. Patrick’s Day. In that day people wear green. Easter was a good holiday, too. You could see the Easter Rabbit, hunt for
eggs and find candy.
Sandra liked Summer Holidays, like Independence Day. She always went to the air show
to see airplanes. In the evening they’d shoot off fireworks. Mother’s Day and Father’s Day were
usually in the summer, too.
Judith loved Fall holidays most. Sweetest Day wasn’t that popular, but it was a nice day
and sometimes she got candy. Halloween was such a great time. Thanksgiving was just a few
weeks later. Between Halloween’s candy and Thanksgiving’s turkey was the best food season of
the year.
Winter holidays were Thomas’ favorites. Christmas was a great time to be with family.
New Year was exciting, because everyone stayed up late and cheered when the year changed,
and there were often fireworks.

Важными климатообразующими факторами являются обширные горные системы на севере Индии и территории соседних государств, а также пустыня Тар на северо-западе страны.
В Индии есть разнообразные климатические регионы: от субэкваториального и тропического климата на юге, до умеренного и альпийского — на горном севере.
рекорды: Самая низкая температура, когда-либо зафиксированная в Индии, была отмечена в городке Драс штата Джамму и Кашмир и составила −45 °C. Немногим восточнее этого места, в городке Лех, была зафиксирована температура −30,6°С. Кроме того, на леднике Сиачен, который является спорной территорией с Пакистаном, но фактически контролируется Индией, была отмечена температура −55 °C.
Рекордно высокая температура была зафиксирована в 1955 году в городе Алвар, штат Раджастхан, и составила 50,6 °C. Другой температурный рекорд: 55 °C, который был отмечен в 2005 году в штате Орисса, оспаривается Департаментом метеорологии Индии
