Australia has a lot of lovely animals. The most famous ones are kangaroos and koalas.
The kangaroo is the symbol of Australia. They have large eyes and ears. They don’t walk,
they jump. They use their strong back legs. They can jump at up to 74 kilometres per hour.
They can go over nine metres in one jump!
Kangaroo mothers have pouches (育儿袋) to carry their babies. The babies stay inside to
get milk and keep warm. Kangaroos are everywhere in Australia. They are on TV, in books
and in the shops. The government even wants to put them on passports (护照).
There are about 20 to 25 million kangaroos in Australia. That’s more than the number of
people in the country! Some kangaroos go hungry because there is not enough to eat. They
break into farms for food. Farmers are very angry with them. To help the farmers, the
Australian Government kills some kangaroos each year.
The koala is another famous Australian animal. They look like bears, and have small eyes
and big noses. They eat leaves from gum trees, where they spend most of their time.
Koalas have a special smell. They use it to mark (标识) their home – “this is my place, you
can’t come in!”
Like kangaroos, a koala baby lives in its mother’s pouch.
But koalas have fewer places to live. There are about 100,000 koalas in Australia.
There is a law to keep them safe.

Venice （威尼斯） is in the northeast of Italy. It wasn’t built on land, like Beijing or
Shanghai, but on more than 110 islands. Seawater is everywhere around the city.
Even so, travel isn’t that difficult. The waterways have always been the best way to get
around. There are 117 waterways and more than 400 bridges that can lead you where you
want to go. People in Venice move from place to place by boat. They like to enjoy cool
summer nights while taking boat trips. They can talk to other people as they go along.
Venice grew out of small islands in saltwater lakes when some Italians escaped (逃跑) from a
war more than 1,500 years ago, and built homes there.

Look at the light and beautiful snowflakes (雪花) falling. Ever wanted to hold them in
your hands? They are always lost when they meet your hands.
Well, this isn’t just a problem for you. It was a problem for Wilson Bentley, too.
In the 1870s, Wilson Bentley was just a teenager. His family lived in a small town in
northeast America. Winters there were long and hard. Bentley’s mother was once a school
teacher. She taught him at home. Bentley didn’t go to school until he was 14. He was a quiet
boy, and loved reading his mother’s books.
But it was his mother’s microscope ( 显微镜) that interested him. When the other boys
were playing with balls, little Bentley was studying things like drops of water, flowers and
snowflakes. Bentley loved watching snowflakes. For the next two years young
Bentley spent many winter days in a cold room watching these ice crystals (晶 体 )
under his microscope.
The boy thought they were so beautiful that he started to draw pictures of them.
But there were so many snowflakes that he couldn’t draw them all.
How could he keep their beauty forever? Bentley thought of buying a camera.
The boy and his mother asked his father to buy one. But, his father didn’t agree. He
thought the whole thing was a bad idea. He thought the only thing a farmer should do was
farming.
But finally Bentley did get a camera. For more than a year he tried to take pictures of
snowflakes. On January 15, 1885, during a snowstorm, Bentley took the first ever photo of
an ice crystal with his camera. “It was the greatest moment of my life,” Bentley said later.
For 13 years, Bentley worked quietly and took thousands of photos of ice crystals. Later
he became known as “Snowflake” Bentley.

If you don’t keep yourself warm enough, winter can be a time of illness.
During the winter months, people easily get colds and flu (流感). Many think they are the same,
but these two illnesses are different.
Colds can stay with you for up to a week. You will have a running nose, sore throat,
headache, cough and a fever.
Flu is more serious. You will feel sick very quickly. You will have a fever and a headache.
Your body will hurt and become weak. This could last for up to four weeks.
Is there any way to keep yourself away from colds and flu? Staying clear of people with
colds or flu may work.
Try not to touch (触摸) your nose or eyes if you have been close to someone who has a
cold. Wash your hands, especially after cleaning your nose.
Going out with wet hair can also give you a cold!
If you catch a cold or flu, go to bed and rest. Doing this will help you get better. Drink lots of
water. Stay in a warm, well-aired room. If you have a headache, or your muscles hurt, take
some medicine.

Winter is a time for many exciting sports: sledding (雪橇), skating and skiing. Skating and
skiing needs lots of skills (技巧). Sledding gives you good exercise and is lots of fun!
A sled looks like a boat. It can move easily over snow or ice. Early sleds were made of wood.
Now some better sleds are made of glass.
Sleds can be pulled by animals. In some very cold parts of the world, people make animals like
dogs, horses, and reindeer (驯鹿) pull goods or people in sleds.
People also sled for sports and fun. Driving a sled does not need much skill. The driver gives a
kick (踢) in the snow to start the sled. He or she can also ask someone else for help. In a sled,
there can be one person or several.
Usually, you have to lie on your back, feet first in a sled. As you travel, you move your body
and feet to keep it in the right direction (方向).
There is a special sled called the skeleton sled (骨架雪橇). It’s very different.
On a skeleton, you lie on your stomach and drive the sled in a head-first way. It is very
fast! Many are afraid to ride it. But once they try it they want to do it again!

Like many other animals, swallows will fly south when the days turn cold and the leaves
from trees begin to fall. They travel many miles to find a warmer winter. This type of travel is
called migration (迁徙).
Birds are animals that like to migrate a lot when it is cold. About 600 out of 9,000 kinds of
birds do it. They leave in autumn and come back during the warm spring months.
Many birds don’t like the cold. They need food, but plants die and insects (昆虫) hide in
winter. So, they’ll only come home the next year, when there will be plenty of food for them
to eat.
But the trip is often hard and not safe. Many birds fly in groups and make noises. Cranes
(鹤) fly in groups like the letter V, or in a row. Others travel in pairs or alone.
Some can travel a very long way. They fly between lands. For example, the Arctic tern (北
极燕鸥) can travel 20,100 kilometres. They build a home near the North Pole (北极), go to
the Antarctic (南极洲) in autumn, and then come back in spring.
How do the birds find their way? They look at things like the sun, moon and stars. They
never get lost.

During the cold winter days you may find it hard to wake up in the morning. It’s warm
and cozy (舒适的) in your bed.
In winter, many animals like to sleep, too. But their sleeps can be very long and deep. This
kind of sleep is called hibernation (冬眠). During this kind of sleep, their temperatures go
down, and hearts beat (跳动) slowly. They take very small breaths.
Animals can hibernate for part or all of the winter. It’s hard for them to find things to eat.
When they go to sleep, they don’t need much food.
Bears, hedgehogs (刺猬) and chipmunks (花栗鼠) go to sleep in their homes. Frogs and
snakes hibernate, too. Frogs move into the earth under water to keep themselves warm.
Before they go to sleep, they eat a lot to get fat (脂肪). Some also keep food in their homes
to eat later.
Bears are the biggest animals that hibernate. They often sleep in caves (山洞). Bears must
eat a lot of things like nuts before going to sleep for a long time. They eat as much as 300 apples
( that’s the same as 60 hamburgers) each day for many weeks. They can eat for 20 hours in a
day!
Bears can go into a very deep sleep. It can last from three months to half a year. During
that time they do not eat, drink or go to the toilet. A mother bear can give birth to babies
during her hibernation.
Other animals sleep less. Sometimes they wake up to eat, or take a walk. Then they go to sleep
again.
