Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Greece has a Mediterranean climate. This type of climate is characterized by hot, dry summers and cool, wet winters.

Detailed explanation-5: -Ancient Greeks learned writing from a foreign civilization. What is the best way to describe the climate of Greece? It has long, mild winters and short, cool summers.
