Question	Explanation from Russian teens

 

Do Russians really love taking baths in snow?	You can say that, I guess. But well, it's not like a real bath. When you go to a Russian banya (俄罗斯澡堂), it's very hot there, perhaps about 40 or 50 degrees. So after that people like to go to the snow to cool themselves down. It feels like you are born again. It's like heaven (天堂). But you don't really stay in the snow for too long. Just a few seconds for you to feel refreshed (清爽的). Just to cry on the street "Oh my god! It's so cold!" and then go. By Alisa Topchiy, 23 years old
Do Russian students go to school when it's 50 degrees below zero?	My hometown is in Siberia (西伯利亚). It is one of the coldest places in the world. The winter is super cold. It can be 50 or 60 degrees below zero. So there is a rule for schools in winter: when the temperature is lower than 52 degrees below zero, schools are closed and people don't have to go to work. But if it is 51 degrees below zero, you still have to go to school and go to work. By NIK GU, 20 years old
Do Russian planes keep flying in extreme(极端的) weather?	Recently there was a heavy storm in Shanghai, and all the other flights were canceled, but only Russian airplanes landed and then took off. So people thought that Russian pilots are not afraid of bad weather. Many Russian pilots used to be in the air force (空军). They then moved to civilian (民用的) flights. So they really know how to do their work. Russian pilots are very popular around the world. A lot of companies like to invite Russian pilots because they're skilled. By Arina Pershina, 19 years old
