Main Body

a) know the premise => Mediterranean climate and China-type climate have similar latitudes

b) so, theirs climate must be same

c) but the climate is not same => why?

d) Explore other reasons affecting the climate => winds - oh, are winds there => yes winds do blow, is moisture present, yes

e) Further exploration we find

Monosoon like winds i.e. seasonal reversal of winds → is it happening, yes.

f) other reasons, is location a factor => yes, latitude might be same but is longitude same=no

g) further analysis => which part of continent do they lie.

Mediterranean = south of Europe, North of Africa.

china-type = Goat of China.

Thus, we find these reasons make the two climates differ from each other.

But midwifery method presents us with philosophical extent
