Most people are afraid of snakes. They may think snakes are dangerous and ugly. With more and more rain falling and the hot weather, it’s time for snakes to be active. Living in the city, it never crosses your mind that we might meet them face to face.

There are more than 2,000 kinds of snakes on the earth. Most of them live in mountains or forests, and in cities sometimes we can find them in grass or other dark places. Snakes can’t walk or run because they have no legs or feet, but these long and thin animals can move very fast on their stomachs. Snakes usually have green, yellow or black skins, which make it difficult for their endemics to find them. In winter they hibernate in holes. They look for a hole to stay inside, on the ground, or in a rock or a tree. They do not wake up again until spring comes. Snakes feed on mice, frogs, bird eggs and so on.

Snakes play an important part in nature. We can make useful medicine with them. Without their help, the rodents (啮齿动物) will be out of control. But many of them are in danger of disappearing. Houses and buildings take up the land where snakes live. Many snakes lose their lives in traffic, and people often kill snakes for their skins or meat.

Do you know that 93 percent of our communication is through our body? We call it body language. This can include the body-gesture language, head-neck language, sign language, face language and looks language. In different cultural backgrounds, the same movement might have quite different meanings, which, as a result, may usually lead to misunderstanding in communication. Misuse of body language can be an unpleasant or even dangerous experience.

In 1992, the President George H. W. Bush made a state visit to Australia. People lined up along the roadside to welcome the American President who greeted them with raised fingers in the form of “V” with the back of his hand toward the onlookers. The following morning a headline in a local newspaper announced that the American President insulted Australians. In Australia, the “V” sign with the back of the hand equals to the middle finger. But in America it means Victory.

Have you understand the importance of body language? Pay attention to the following and you will realize that they are very helpful when you are in Australia.

Men in Australia shake hands instead of kissing when they meet. In China, thumbing up means “You are good”. However, it’s rude in Australia. If an Australian laugh at others, he makes his thumb down. If you want to order a glass of beer in the bar, just hold up your forefinger. And in social situation, you shouldn’t yawn or stretch (打哈欠或伸懒腰) yourself.

Keep these in mind and have a nice trip in Australia.
