If you are travelling in Australia, how to protect yourself from the dangerous animals in the reading passage. The information on page28 may help you.

In cool, dark corners or anywhere you can't see , under or among large rocks

and under dead wood are where snakes may be found. Many bites happen

when people try to catch, or kill venomous snakes or when people tread(put

their feet) on snakes. Common sense should keep you safe when out in the

Australian bush, for example, snakes are scared of humans and they move

away as soon as they hear people coming.

Saltwater crocodiles are found a long way from settlements only in the far

north of Australia near rivers and waterholes. There are usually signs to warn

people that crocodiles are in the area. Crocodiles stay hidden in the water or

on the land close to water.

Many beaches have shark nets to keep sharks away from swimmers. In hot

weather, small planes fly along the coast looking out for sharks. If one is

spotted an alarm is sounded to warn people to get out of the water. Sharks in

deep water are the hungriest, and

hungry sharks are dangerous．

Spiders are usually found in dark, dry places, under stones or amongst

rubbish. The poison is slow acting so there is plenty of time to get to the

hospital.

When jellyfish are close to the beach, you usually find a few dead ones on the

beach. If they were recently on the beach, they can still sting. A sting can often paralyze a person, making it difficult to swim back to shore alone.

Vinegar can help relieve the sting of jellyfish. If a person has trouble

breathing or becomes unconscious, they should be taken to hospital

immediately. Step 6 Summing up
