Hi Ani,
There are a number of ways to modify this sort of plot. Here is one:

x11(width=7,height=5)
par(cex.axis=.8)
plot(month~year,xaxt="n", type="l", ylab="Month", xlab="Year",
 main="Month of occurrence in year")
axis(1,at=seq(1981,2014,3))
library(plotrix)
boxed.labels(year,month,month.abb[month],border=NA,cex=0.7)
