Australia is nearly as large as the United States,but most of it is too 1        for people to live in. Around the 2        of this huge dry part are large sheep and cattle 3       . A few of them are as large as the smallest 4        in America. Often the nearest neighbors are many hundred miles away.

The 5       radio is very important to people who live 6        these great Australian farms. It works much like a telephone. A person can listen to someone 7        talk and then give an answer.

When these radios first came into 8       ,the Australian government set up a special twoway radio 9       . Then,people on the large farms could talk to a doctor hundreds of miles away. They could tell the doctor about someone who was sick,and the doctor could let them know 10        to 11        for the sick person.

Since the large forms were 12        far away from the towns,the children could not go to school. Radio schools were 13        for them in some areas. 14       a certain time each day,the boys and girls turned on their radios and listened to 15        in cities miles away.

Families on the large farms wanted to 16        news to their neighbors. " Round robin" talks by radio were started to 17        families in touch with each other. They could talk about who was going away or who was sick or who was 18        married. The men could talk about their sheep and cattle and how much money the market would 19        for them. In many ways the radio became a 20       for the farm people of Australia.

Instead of renting a restaurant for an expensive wedding banquet (盛宴) ,26-year-olds Wang Shaowei and Zhang Xin tied the knot (紧缩) at a cost of nine yuan (US $ 1. 40) spent on a mar?riage certificate.

The couple,who just recently 1        the work force,forwent nearly all the traditional pre?requisites (必备条件) of a Chinese wedding:owning an apartment and a car,buying wedding rings and 2       a pricy ceremony at a posh (豪华的) hotel.

"We had a big dinner in our twobedroom rented apartment to 3        the start of our mar?

ried life,and nothing 4,      "said Wang,who lives with his wife in Shijiazhuang,capital of Hebei Province.

In recent years,an increasing number of Chinese young people have chosen a " naked mar?riage" .

The term,coined (创造) in 2008 by Chinese bloggers,has drawn5      discussion since a popular TV series dubbed " Naked Marriage Era" brought the 6        into the public spotlight (注意) 7       a chord (共鸣) with young Chinese,especially those born in the 1980s.

The term refers to a.8       who get hitched ( = married) before acquiring a house and car and who spend little 9        their wedding ceremony. Some do so 10        in an effort to declare their 11       ,while others simply have no 12       .

"Naked marriage" marks a sharp 13        from China's established marriage 14       ,which encourage parents to help lay the 15        foundation for their children's marriage by helping them secure a house and car.

According to a poll 16        by the social investigation center of the China Youth Daily prior to this year's Chinese Valentine's Day,Qixi Festival that fell on Saturday,nearly 48 percent of 3,214 respondents said they supported the idea of " naked marriages", 17       about 23 percent 18       it.

The vote also showed that about 55 percent of the respondents viewed courage as essential when engaging in a "naked marriage" and 43 percent of them 19        that married life of the couple who had a " naked marriage" would be much 20        than their peers with better financial status.

 When a rather dirty,poorly dressed person kneels at your feet and puts out his hands to beg for a few coins,do you hurry on,not knowing what to do,or do you feel sad and hurriedly hand over some money? What should our attitude to beggars be? There can be no question that the world is full of terribly sad stories. It must be terrible to have no idea where our next meal is going to come from. It seems cruel not to give some money to beggars.

Certainly,most of the world's great religions (宗教) order us to be openhearted and share what we have with those less fortunate than ourselves. But has the world changed? Maybe what was morally (道德方面) right in the old days,when one knew exactly who in the village had suf?fered misfortune and needed help,is no longer the best idea. Quite a few people will not give anything to beggars. Let us look at their arguments.

First,some believe that many city beggars dress up on purpose to look pitiable,but actually make a good living from begging. Giving things to. beggars only encourages this sort of evil (恶行) .Secondly,there is the worry that the money you give will be spent on beer,wine or drugs. Thirdly,there is the opinion that there is no real excuse for begging. One might be poor,but that is no reason for losing one's sense of pride and selfdependence.

Related to this is the opinion that the problem should be dealt with by the government rather than ordinary people. Some people think beggars should go to the local government and ask for help.

It is hard to come to any final conclusion. There are various cases and we must deal with them differently. A few coins can save a life in some situations,and even if the money is wasted,that does not take away the moral goodness of the giver.
