2.Dear mum and dad,I'm writing this letter to you from the center of Australia.At the moment we're staying near Uluru-that's the aboriginal(土著) name for Ayers Rock.On the first day,we took a balloon tour over the rock,and I was surprised at how big it was:3.6kilometers long and 384meters high.The colors of the rock are fantastic,and at different times of the day,they change from purple to red.The Aborigines are the first people of Australia,and the ancient aboriginal stories describe the spirits that created the world.Uluru is a center of Aboriginal culture.
The Australians have many British relatives.That's why they're like us in many ways.Their family life is similar to ours,and they enjoy the same food and hobbies.The food and drink that most Australians like are grapes,lamb,ham and especially wine that they make in the south of the country.They love all sports,but football is the most popular.Most Australians live near the coast,so they also love going to the beach,swimming and surfing.
Although it's December,it's summer over here.The sunshine is very bright,and near the coast the countryside is very green.There are lots of sheep in the fields and on the hills,but the outback(澳洲内陆) is more like a desert,full of rocks and sand.
The next day after we arrived at Uluru,we went on a camel(骆驼) ride.The camel that I rode had a bad temper.When I sat on its back,it became very angry and refused me.So everyone else thought it was very funny that my camel kept lying down…
Finally,later this evening,we're taking the plane back to Sydney and coming home,it's been a fantastic trip!

分析 我在澳大利亚腹地给您写信.我们现在位于当地土著人所说的Uluru附近,也就是通常所说的澳州艾尔斯岩一带.第一天我们乘直升机鸟瞰整个岩石山,我被它的巨大所震惊:3.6公里长,348米高.岩石的颜色非常奇妙,随着一天中光照的不同,它会从紫色变成红色.当地土著是澳大利亚的第一批居民,他们古老的神话传说中有神灵创造世界的描述.Uluru是当地土著文明的一个文化中心.
澳大利人有很多英国亲属.那是为什么他们和我们在很多地方相像的原因.他们的家庭生活和我们相似,他们吃同样的食物有同样的爱好.大多数澳大利亚人喜欢葡萄,羊肉,火腿尤其是在南方制成的白酒.他们喜欢所有的运动但是最喜欢足球.大部分的澳大利亚人住在沿海地区,所有他们也喜欢去海边,游泳冲浪.
虽然现在是十二月,但是在这里是夏天.阳光明媚,在海岸边村庄是绿色的.田野里还有山上有很多的羊,但是澳洲内陆就像是沙漠,四处都是石头和沙子.
第二天我们到了澳州艾尔斯岩,我们骑着骆驼旅行.我骑的骆驼有一个坏脾气.当我坐在它的背上,它很生气的拒绝了我.所以其他人都认为它很有趣,我的骆驼一直躺着不动.
最后,今天晚上,我们乘飞机回到悉尼然后回家.多么奇妙的旅行啊!
托尼.
