Answer 2

It usually rains a lot in winter, but last year it snowed for three months. (option C)

• In the above sentence, two types of words are used.
• The word 'rains' is in the present tense form and the word 'snowed' is in past tense form.
• The first half of the sentence gives information about the present situation, whereas the second half of the sentence gives us information about the situation which has been already occurred.
• Hence, option C is the correct answer.
