"I don't have to go to school. My school 1
me!" Sara shows me
her room. "This is my
classroom and this is my teacher and the
others 2
. " She points to a large radio with a microphone. Sara lives
with her parents on a farm in Central Australia. It's about 60 miles from her
farm to her neighbours. She can't go to 3 because her farm is so far away from 4 . There are a lot of children like
her in Australia. They use the "School of the Air". There are 12
of 5
for children in the
outback (内地)
of Australia. They are at these schools until they are about 12 years old. Sara
says, "We talk to our teachers every day on the 6
. And our 7 last about 30 minutes. Our teachers 8
us the class work and we
do it before our lessons. Twice a year our teacher 9__ us, and once a year all the students 10 . That's the best time of the
year."
