01.        손을 들어 모두, 샤카!

you ever visit Hawaii, the locals will probably greet you with an unusual hand gesture and the words "shaka brah." This warm welcome, known as the shaka, is popular throughout the islands. From bankers and businessmen to surfers, everyone uses this friendly gesture. It helps to promote peace and harmony among the wide range of ethnic groups living there.

No one is sure where the shaka first originated, but the most common theory is that it stems from beach culture. The term shakaitself is probably a variation on the common expression‎, "shark eye," a compliment paid to show respect. The shaka gesture became popular in the 1960s thanks to local celebrity Lippy Espinda, who used it in television advertisements. From then on, everyone began using the shaka as a friendly show of goodwill. Here's how to make a shaka sign. The first step is to make a fist.Then extend your thumb and pinky, but be sure not to uncurl your middle fingers. Then,  turn your hand so that your palm is facing towards you. Finally, move it as if writing the letter "J." That's it. Now (the Hawaiian/ready/you are/people way!/to greet)

02.        보기만 해도 아찔해요!

Your (your palms/and/you walk/legs tremble/sweat as/) Where are you? You are climbing to Xuan Kong Si, also called the Hanging Temple, in China. The temple is famous us for its location. It is built into a cliff, more than 75 meters above the ground. It looks very fragile. But surprisingly, the Hanging Temple has been "hanging" there for about 1,500 years! The secret is in its unique building design. Its long, thin wooden poles were built into the rock as the foundation. They seem to support the structure. But it was actually constructed in a way that lets the rock in back carry most of the weight. The temple is not only special outside.The inside is also unique. It is a place for three different traditional religions: Buddhism, Taoism, and Confucianism. The temple includes forty chambers connected by narrow stairs and bridges. There are eighty-seven statues from all three religions inside as well. Do you think why the temple was built like this? One reason is that the location protects the temple from the nearby river's floods. The other reason is spiritual. The quiet location is ideal for meditating and searching for inner peace. Ironically, the temple is now a busy tourist attraction. Would you like to go?

04.        Let’s Enjoy the night of the Radishes in Mexico!

On Halloween, people in the United States carve scary faces into pumpkins. These jack-o-lanterns are a beloved Halloween tradition. But south of the border, in Oaxaca, Mexico, there is a different carving tradition. It happens around Christmas instead of Halloween. And rather than pumpkins, people carve radishes! The celebration is called Noche de Rabanos, or Night of the Radishes, and it takes place on December 23. It was started more than 100 years ago by merchants at the town plaza. Hoping to attract Christmas shoppers, they would carve designs into the bright red skin of radishes. People loved them!  They bought the carved radishes and placed them in the center of the table at Christmas dinner. In 1897, Noche de Rabanos became an official holiday in Oaxaca. Today, the carvings are made by local artists and amateurs. They use special radishes that are larger than normal and not used for food. These radishes, which can weigh as much as three kilograms, are harvested on December 18. This gives the carvers a few days to work on their creations before exhibiting them in the town plaza. The person who carves the best radish wins a grand prize of 15,000 pesos. If you're ever in Mexico during the holiday season, you should head to Oaxaca and check out these wonderful Christmas radishes!

05.        그의 관한 진실

Everyone thinks that Napoleon Bonaparte was a very short man. Actually, the triangular hat he loved to wear played a role in making him look so short. The hats used by Napoleon's Imperial Guards were worn vertically, making the towering men look even taller. However Napoleon liked to wear his hat horizontally, making him look short in comparison.

Another crucial reason why Napoleon has become the symbol of the short man is that the doctor who examined him upon his death recorded his height as 5 feet 2 inches, or 158 cm. However Napoleon was actually 169 cm, about the average height for European men at the time. The 11cm difference resulted from the fact that the French unit of "feet" and the British unit of "feet" were different. Due to this error, the French emperor Napoleon Bonaparte, whose name commanded respect and fear throughout all of Europe, lost 11cm of his height and ended up becoming a hero for short men everywhere.

Although Florence Nightingale is best known as the founder of modern nursing, she was also a skilled statistician. Nightingale used statistics to figure out why so many people died in the Crimean War. She then used this information effectively to change public opinion.

Nightingale was sent to a British hospital in Turkey in 1854 in order to improve its . Many injured soldiers were dying in the hospital, which suffered from shortages of food and medicine, an overworked staff, and unclean conditions. By the time the war ended in 1856, Nightingale and her team had successfully improved the hospital, significantly lowering the death rates of wounded soldiers. Despite this success, Nightingale worried that similar situations would occur in the future. So she used her abilities as a statistician to_________________________________. It was commonly believed that most of the deaths were due to shortages of food and medicine. However, Nightingale found that the real cause was unsanitary conditions.

Nightingale was asked to present this information to the queen and her council. She knew that simply reading a list of numbers weren't enough. So she arranged the numbers into charts to make them clearer. Charts weren't commonly used in those days, but they had a powerful impact. They convinced many people that something had to be done. Thanks to Florence Nightingale's statistical skills, public sanitation and the British hospital system were improved, saving countless lives.

07.        전쟁속에 또 다른 비밀

Many people view Winston Churchill as one of the greatest leaders of World War II. As the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, he held his country together during difficult times and helped to lead *the Allied Forces to victory. But not everyone saw Churchill as a great man, especially not those living in areas colonized by the British Empire. In fact, he is considered to be partially responsible for millions of deaths in Bengal, a region in northeastern India. In 1943, Bengal was ruled by Britain and was suffering from a serious famine. There was plenty of rice being grown in other parts of India, but most of it was being exported to feed British soldiers. Not only did Churchill refuse to send some of this rice to Bengal, but he also turned down 3 offers from the United States and Canada to provide food. His reason was that he feared enemy soldiers who were near Bengal would take the food. In the end, approximately 3 million people starved to death in Bengal. Although Churchill had no way of preventing the famine, he could have reduced the number of victims. Instead, he turned his back on the people of Bengal and let them survive. Because he coldly decided to put his country before human lives, some people view him as a heartless and cruel man.

08.        Do you know of Nellie Bly?

In 1887, 23-year-old Nellie Bly already had a career as a journalist in the small city of Pittsburgh. However, most of the stories she was asked to write were directed only at women. Bly dreamed of writing important stories for all readers, so she moved to New York and tried to find work at the New York World, which was one of the nation's leading newspapers at that time. The editor of the newspaper offered her a challenge. He asked her to investigate a local mental hospital with a bad reputation for treating patients poorly. In order to get inside, Bly pretended to be mentally ill for 10 days. The story she wrote about her experience was published as a six-part series, and it made her one of America's most famous journalists. It also helped start a new style of reporting called investigative journalism. Later, after reading the famous book Around the World in 80 Days, Bly decided to break the world record for the fastest trip around the world. Completing the trip in just 72 days, she set the record and then wrote a book about the experience.

09.        손을 씻으면 사라져요

In the famous Shakespeare play Macbeth, Lady Macbeth encourages her husband to kill the king but begins to feel terrible guilt after he actually does. She imagines there is blood on her hands and tries to wash it off. Although this is just fiction, some psychologists believe it really is possible to wash away guilt through physical washing. They call it the "Lady Macbeth Effect," and, unfortunately, it's not always a good thing. In a study, the psychologists asked certain participants to think about times they had behaved unethically in the past. They then thanked everyone for participating and allowed each person to choose a reward. The rewards they offered were small, everyday items, including pens, kitchen tools, and cleaning products. After a thinking about their bad behavior, people were much more likely to choose a cleaning product, such as soap or hand wipes, than any of the other products. Researchers in a similar study also asked people to think about bad things they had done. But this time half of them were allowed to wash their hands afterwards, while the others were not. The researchers found that those who had washed their hands felt less guilt and were less likely to do volunteer work later. This suggests that washing one's hands can reduce bad feelings, but it can also reduce emotions related to morality.

*Sardine fishermen were facing a problem. The fish would die quickly after being caught in their nets. But live sardines could be sold at a higher price. So one fisherman came up with a great idea. He put a catfish into each container of sardines. To avoid this predator, the sardines had to keep swimming around and around. This kept them alive longer. This is called the "catfish effect." It can be applied to situations in many fields. 

In sports, for example, coaches know that bringing a new, talented player onto a team makes the other players better. This is because they start trying harder to avoid losing position on the team. Businesses can use this effect to motivate their employees, too. In economics, it explains how companies become creative and innovative. When strong competitors enter the market, other companies have to become more dynamic to survive. This makes the entire economy stronger. In short, pressure and stimulation from competitors can make people and businesses work harder.
