I would like to know which one native speakers find most natural. I was asked to talk about seasons on my IELTS practice test and I can't figure out which one I should go with. I usually say 'in the winter/summer.'
Here are some sentences from my answer:
1) It's not that cold in/in the/during/ during the winter here.
2) The temperature doesn't go below 1 or 2 degrees Celsius in/in the/during/ during the winter.
3) I like wearing track suits, jeans and caps in/in the/during/ during the winter.
I'd also like to know about 'summer.' Do we use 'summer' the same way an winter?
4) In/in the/during/ during the summer I get tired easily which makes me grumpy sometimes.
