Some experts believe it is because of the animals that the myths(神话) grew out of.In the west, the idea of the dragon probably came from the snakean animal which people hated and were afraid of(害怕)But in China, the idea of the dragon may have come from the alligatora shy animal which lives in rivers, but which is usually only seen when there is plenty of watera good sign for agriculture(农业)因此中国龙是好运的使者(bringer)。1.
