In the primary lessons: In science the seasons happen because the Earth is tilted as it goes around the Sun; when one hemisphere leans towards the Sun it has summer. In the Northern Hemisphere (UK, Ireland, USA, Canada) summer is in the middle of the year; in Australia and New Zealand the seasons are the other way round. Near the equator there are often a wet season and a dry season. Phrases: in season, out of season, the festive season, season ticket, rainy season. ### examples - A lord who preferred soil to thrones, seasons to councils, a field that answers when you work it to a court that answers when you flatter it.
