1. 表泛指的季节名词前有介词in时，用不用冠词均可，但如果用during, (all) through, throughout, over等介词时，通常要加冠词。例如：

In (the) spring leaves begin to grow on the trees. 树木在春天开始长出叶子。《牛津高阶英汉双解词典》

During the summer, my skin sometimes gets greasy. 夏天我的皮肤有时候会出油。《柯林斯高阶英汉双解词典》

▲ 如果语境是特指某一年（今年或当年等等），即便是介词in也要加冠词。比较：

正：They plan to get married in the summer. 他们打算夏天结婚。

误：The book will be published in autumn. 这本书将于秋季出版。

2. in the summer“在夏天”；in the summers“在夏天；在每年夏天，年年夏天”。例如：

These rooms become These rooms become unbearably cold in the winters and sweltering in the summers so that nobody can bear to study in them.这些宿舍冬天寒冷难耐，夏天闷热至极，以至于没人忍受得了在其中学习。
