英语翻译
The rattlers with which a rattlesnake warns of its presence are formed by loosely interlocking hollow rings of hard skin,which make a buzzing sound shen its tail is shaken.As a baby,the snake begins to form its rattles from the button at the very tip of its tail.Thereafter,each time it sheds its skin,a new ringis formed.Popular belief holds that a snake's age can be told by counting the rings,but this is fallacious---a snake may lose its old skin as often as four times a year.Also,rattles tend to wear or break off with time.
