III. Match the descriptions with the following countries. There is one extra country in the list.
Countries: Spain, Germany, Britain, Greece
Text A: This country enjoys a Mediterranean climate for most of the year, with warm to hot days and mild nights. However, in the middle of summer, it can be unbearably hot and stuffy and winter can be chilly. December and January can be very cold and in February it is often rainy. April can be changeable with sunny days interrupted by windy showery weather.
Text B: Most of this country is always warm from April to October though it can occasionally be cold and rainy in the north, especially in the mountains. The south is amazingly mild throughout the year-it hardly has a winter. Although the Atlantic lies only a few miles away, the climate is more like the Mediterranean.
Text C: The country has a very changeable climate, both from day to day and from place to place. Although long periods of fine weather occur each year, it is not easy to forecast the weather accurately and you can be soaked during any season. The north of the country is much colder and windy in winter, often with quite heavy snowfalls. The southwest has a milder climate.
