Speaking exercise

do you agree that the weather is able to affect people’s mood or personality?

In my opinion, I think the mood will be affected by the weather, but the personality is difficult to be affect by the weather. Mood is about people’s action, emotion, something outside. For example, people not patient enough in rainy days. But personality is used to describe something inside a person, for example, the guy is ambitious, or lazy, or greedy or hardworking. That is not affect by all side condition. I feel if the weather is hot or raining for a long time, I will feel it’s not convenient for me, it’s not comfortable, but I still need to focus something when I should finish.

Revised

In my opinion, I think the mood will be affected by the weather, but not the personality. Mood is related so someone’s behaviors and emotions.   For example, people will be impatient on rainy days. Personality is used to describe someone’s inner self, for example, the person could be ambitious, or lazy, or greedy or hardworking. These are not affected by the weather. I feel if the weather is hot or raining for a long time, it will be inconvenient for me, it’s not comfortable, but I still need to focus on what I should do.
