A day has 24 hours. It begins in the morning and ends at night. While a year has 365 days. A year includes four seasons: spring, summer, autumn and winter. It's obvious that a year is much longer than a day.

There are four seasons in each year, they are spring, summer, autumn and winter.
In spring, the weather gets warmer each day. For many animals, new life begins in spring.
Summer is the hottest season of the year. When in summer, I often feel thirsty and tired.
The days begin to shorten and the weather begins to cool in autumn.
Winter is the coldest season of the year. The weather is freezing cold and we have to wear warm clothes to keep us warm.
Of all the seasons I like autumn best. I like it when leaves turn different colors. How about you?
