@CausticSyndicalist  could you help please? my teacher said A is wrong, so im lost

It would be D because June 21 is the first day of summer in the Northern Hemisphere, whilst in the Southern Hemisphere it would be winter because during the summer solstice, the Northern Hemisphere leans closer to the Sun and thus receiving more sunlight.
