Task 1. Read the text and decide which sentences are true and which are false. Madagascar has two seasons, a warm, wet season from November to April, and a cooler dry season between May and October. However, different parts of the country have very different weather. The east coast is hotter and wetter. In the rainy season, there are strong winds, and these can cause a lot of damage. Don't visit eastern Madagascar between January and March because the weather can make road travel very difficult. The dry season is cooler and more pleasant. The high, central part of the country is much drier and cooler. The summer is usually sunny and dry, but it can be cold, especially in the mornings, with freezing showers, and it may snow in mountains. The west coast is the driest part of the island. Here, the winter months are pleasant with little rain, cooler temperatures and blue skies. The summers can be extremely hot, especially in the southwest. This part of the country is semi-desert, and only gets around 300mm of rain per year. 1. Madagascar has four seasons: spring, summer, autumn and winter. 2.
