(C)
Swimming at the beach or in a backyard pool are well - known Australian summer activities. But while it is usually a fun time of the year, there is a serious side to summer that you might not know about.
The terrible heat, which can go above 40℃ in some cities, is very dangerous. There are lots of trees and dry grass in the areas far away that can easily catch fire. Even throwing a burning cigarette out of a car window can start a dangerous fire. That is why summer is also known as the “bushfire(丛林大火) season” in Australia.
In February there were more than 80 different bushfires burning at the same time in New South Wales, a southeastern state of Australia. The Guardian newspaper reported that 42 homes were burned to the ground because of these fires. These homes are not like Chinese ones. They are huge farms. Many Australian properties (房产) are larger than 1,000 square kilometers, while the biggest is more than 20,000 square kilometers.
Every family prepares for the bushfire season and protects their property. But sometimes the fires are too big and people have to move to safety.
The hot weather also causes other problems. It was so hot in February that thousands of bats(蝙蝠) died from the heat. People can get sick if they stay outside for too long or they don’t drink enough water. The heat can also cause power problems for homes and business.
The Australian summer is enjoyable. But it is worth remembering that the heat can cause lots of problems, too.
