Dialogue: M: You know the weather's been awful so far this summer. W: I know. This is very unusual for Japan. Usually by now, it's really hot and humid. I'm not sure why, but this summer we've had very little rain and surprisingly cool temperatures. M: Well, either way I love it. I remember last summer. Oh, it was terrible. I didn't have an air-conditioner, and my apartment was on the fifth floor. Every night I slept on top of my bed with the windows wide-open and a fan six inches from my face. W: That sounds pretty tough. I guess I've gotten used to the heat, so I don't notice it as much. However, last year was definitely a lot hotter than this year. And, to be honest, I am enjoying the break. What are summers like for you back home? M: For one thing, there's little humidity. Seattle is right on the ocean so we always have a nice offshore breeze blowing in, and it doesn't really get hot until late July. That's why I found it so oppressive last year. Our summers are just so different. W: Interesting. Seattle sounds like a great place to be during the summer. Question: What is NOT true on Seattle according to the boy? - Seattle is a coastle city. - Seattle doesn't get hot until late July. - It is rather humid in Seattle in summer.
