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 time , 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 try 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.
