It’s lunch break. Lillian and Matt are in the playground talking about their weekend.
Lillian: This Saturday I invite some friends to visit me and we will just stay at home. You know, we usually meet at the shopping centre or we go jogging in the park but this time I am so tired that I prefer not to go out. We will watch a good film and eat popcorn. It will be fun.
Matt: But why are you so tired?
Lillian: Well, during the week I am always very busy after school. I have guitar lessons and basketball practice three times a week. After that, I get home and I usually study. This week I had a Math and a Science test, so I had to study a lot.
Matt: I am very lazy, so the best thing for me is to spend my free time at home sitting in front of the TV. I also like to have my laptop with me and I am always surfing the net or checking my Facebook page.
Lillian: You don’t hang out with your friends and you don’t exercise, do you?
Matt: You’re right about exercising but I often meet my friends. For example, I keep in touch with my friends in Facebook. I am always with them online. Come on; don’t look at me like that. I know it’s not the same thing as being face-to-face with them but that’s how I like it.
Lillian: Well, I have to say that’s too boring for me. You can feel healthier and have more fun if you go out with your friends. You can always experience something new. Why don’t you go cycling with them next week?
Matt: You’re so right. I will ask them. Lillian: That’s the spirit.
Australia, or the Commonwealth of Australia, as it is officially called, is situated on the island continent. It also occupies the Island of Tasmania and some minor islands round the coast of the continent.
It is a highly developed industrial-agrarian country. Its area is about 8 million km2. It is the only state in the world that occupies the territory of a whole continent.
The capital of Australia is Canberra, which became the capital only in 1927.
From 1787 to 1867 Australia was a place where criminals were sent from Britain. That is why the official language of Australia is English.
Almost one half of Australian territory is occupied by deserts and semideserts. For quite a long period of time it was thought to be useless for economic development. But it is rich in coal, iron ore, bauxites, uranium, lead and many other mineral resources.
For almost a century the production and export of sheep wool was the basis of the economy of the country. Now the most important industries are oil, chemical, ore mining, radioelectronics, and food industry. The country exports agricultural products and raw materials.
As for the nature, the commonest trees of Australia are the eucalyptus and the Australian acacia or mimosa, the national emblem of the country. Such unusual animals as a kangaroo or a koala-bear originate from Australia.
Australia is one of the most unusual and exotic countries of the world. A significant feature of modern Australian society is the representation of a lot of cultures drawn from many lands by its people.
Historically part of the British Empire and now a member of a Commonwealth of Nations, it is a relatively prosperous and independent nation.
Перевод:
Австралия, или Австралийский Союз, как она официально называется, находится на островном континенте. Она также занимает остров Тасмания и небольшие острова вокруг континентального побережья.
Это весьма развитая индустриально-аграрная страна. Её площадь составляет около 8 млн км2. Это единственное государство в мире, занимающее территорию целого континента.
Столица Австралии- Канберра, стала столицей лишь в 1927 году.
С 1787 по 1867 год Австралия была местом, куда отправлялись преступники из Англии. Именно поэтому официальным языком Австралии является английский.
Почти половину территории Австралии занимают пустыни и полупустыни. В течение довольно долгого времени они считались бесполезными для экономического развития. Но они богаты углём, железной рудой, бокситами, ураном, свинцом и многими другими полезными ископаемыми.
Почти столетие производство и экспорт шерсти овец являлся основой экономики страны. В настоящее время наиболее важными отраслями являются нефтяная, химическая, горнорудная промышленность, радиоэлектроника, а также пищевая промышленность. Страна экспортирует сельскохозяйственную продукцию и сырьё.
Что касается природы, то самыми распространенными деревьями в Австралии являются эвкалипт и австралийская акация, или мимоза, - государственный герб страны. Такие необычные животные, как кенгуру или коала, родом тоже из Австралии.
Австралия является одной из самых необычных и экзотических стран мира. Важной особенностью современного австралийского общества является представительство многих культур, принесённых на континент из разных земель.
Исторически - часть Британской империи, в настоящее время - член Содружества Наций, Австралия является процветающей и независимой страной.
