Read the text and speak about the British climate using the adjectives in different degrees of comparison.
The British Climate
Some people say that Britain does not have a climate, it only has
weather. This refers to three things. Firstly, the weather in Britain is very
changeable: a day can start fine and warm, but often ends cold and wet.
Secondly, the climate is moderate: it doesn’t usually get very cold or very
hot. Thirdly, the seasons are not as different as they are in many countries,
and you can just as easily have a cold, wet day in summer as you can in
winter.
Generally speaking, the west of Britain is wetter than the east, and the
north is colder than the south. That means, for example, that the southwest is warm but wet; the north-east is colder but drier. Because of the
Gulf Stream, British winters are much warmer than many countries with
the same latitude.
Britain is famous for its fog: think of London in the books of Charles
Dickens or in the stories about Sherlock Holmes and you will think of fog.
But Britain is much less foggy than it was in the days of Dickens or
Holmes, because now people can’t have coal fires in London or other big
cities. It was the pollution as much as the climate that made Victorian
London so foggy.
