delays and traffic jams but have you ever heard about snakes? No? Well, here's a
story that will make you think twice the next time you ty
It all started one day when a passenger boarded a flight in South Korea with a little
'something extra in his luggage. However, he didn't declare what this something
extra was when he left South Korea.
When he arrived in Atlanta, USA, customs officer Christopher Hendericks checked
the man's luggage. To his surprise he found 30 snakes in bottles! He also found
some bird specimens in the bottles, and a special liquid with the snakes and birds
to preserve them
Hendericks said, "I've found snakes before but what surprised me about this case
was how many there were. At least no passengers were hurt." Even though the
reptiles and birds were not alive, there was still a problem. As the US Fish and
Wildlife Service stated, "It's possible that the dead snakes had poison in them. The
passenger even put scorpions in the snakes' mouths. So, we had to check all the
animal specimens in the bottles
The airline did not release the name of the passenger. The police charged the man
with breaking the law twice, once for not declaring the strange contents of his
luggage and once for importing endangered species.выпишите Present Perfect, Present Contineons Tense и Present Simple Tense

22-hour workday New York, once the largest city in the world, is now only the ninth or tenth largest. Of its over seven million people, 52 per cent are white, 24 per cent black, 20 per cent Hispanic, and 4 per cent «other». As a Korean immigrant, Lee Chang-Soon is one of the «others». Together with his wife and his mother-in-law, Mr Lee runs a fruit and vegetable store on Manhattan's Upper East Side. His workday starts at midnight when he drives his truck to the fruit and vegetable market in the Bronx. It ends at 10 p.m. when he locks the door of his store and goes home with his wife. Here's part of our reporter's conversation with Lee Chang-Soon. Reporter: Mr Lee, you're at work when the rest of us are sleeping, and you're still working when we're watching TV in the evening. Mr Lee: Yes, in our kind of business you have to work long hours. I spend five hours at the market every night, and the store's open from 8 a.m. to p.m. People here want a wide choice of fruit and vegetables; everything must be fresh and clean - and cheap! Reporter: Your wife's cleaning lettuce right now and you're sorting green peas Mr Lee: Yes. We have to be very quick. There are 15 boxes of strawberries and a lot of asparagus and cauliflower waiting. There's always work to do. Reporter: When do you sleep? Mr Lee: Well, when I get back from the market - at about six o’clock in the morning - my wife and I first unload and store everything. That takes us about two hours. After that I sleep for an hour or so. And I get a bit of sleep in the evening after work ... Reporter: ... before you leave for the market again at midnight. Life's pretty hard for you and your family, Mr Lee. Mr Lee: Yes - but that's the way it is. We want to get on. We're not complaining.
