Question 1

Now it is spring. During this season the flowers start to bloom and I typically get hay fever. The weather also gets warm and muggy.

Question 2

I think ice cream is good in humid and warm weather although it can melt pretty quickly.

Question 3

I like t-shirts and jeans so I prefer warm and dry weather. I feel comfortable in t-shirts and jeans and this has been my style for 25 years or so.

Question 4

I like winter food a lot. Especially roast chicken and roast potatoes, stews, and warm desserts like apple pie.

Question 5

This is a hard question, I think the season I dislike the most is winter because I do not like the cold. On the other hand, I strongly dislike humid weather but I like the warmth.

Question 6

I would say spring is the best time to visit Nara as you can see cherry blossoms. It is also possible to have a picnic in the park which is a popular tradition for many people who live here.
