we've learnt that seasons changes from summer, winter spring and autumn because of earth's closeness to sun.

This is a wrong myth. In fact many cities have summer when the distance between the earth and sun has been increased.

Recent research shows that seasons are caused by the change in angle of earth on its axis. Earth receives more radiation from sun when it is oriented perpendicular to sunlight which causes the change in seasons. This research has proved that there is no effect of distance between sun and earth on climates instead it is due to the angular motion of earth on its axis.
