How can you remember numbers quickly Have you ever used your fingers to
count numbers or do you have any other ways to count them Numbers are
important in our daily life.
Many people think numbers and Maths are the same all over the world,but
scientists found that it was not true.People in different parts of the world use their
fingers to count and the ways they use are different.In the United States,people
begin counting with their first fingers,and then they use the rest of their fingers
to count to five.Next,they do this again with the other hand to get to ten.In China.
people count by using different finger positions().In this way,a Chinese
person can easily count to ten by using only one hand.
Besides the ways of counting,scientists have found that cultures and languages
are also different when we talk about numbers.Some languages have only a few
words for numbers,and others have no words for numbers.For example,some
people in Australia don't have any hand movements to stand for numbers.They
don't even have any words for numbers.However,they are still able to understand
different ideas about numbers.
We need to use numbers in our daily life,so numbers appear.Now we know
numbers and Maths are different all over the world.
