For as long as I can remember, I have loved photos. When I was little, I would spend hours looking at old family photos. In the fourth grade, my parents gave me a camera to take with on our trip to Washington D.C. I took photos of everything that interested me during the trip.

Photography（摄影）is more than a hobby for me - it's my way of life. So why do I take photos?

▲To hold onto memories

Photos capture (捕捉) memories. Time goes by quickly, and it's not always easy to live in the moment. Taking photos makes me hold onto those moments just a bit longer.

▲To tell a story

Photos take us to another place and time. I take the camera with me and record my days. Later I show the photos to my friends and family as I tell them about my days.

▲To see the world differently

I look for the special and beautiful moments every day. Nothing is too boring to be beautiful - sometimes you just have to look for it.

▲ To learn a new skill

Photography is a journey and an art. Although anyone can take photos with their phone, there is a difference between taking photos and learning photography.学习是我生活的一部分。

▲To express（表达）myself

A picture is truly worth（值）a thousand words. What I can't explain in words, I can show through photos. Photos make me be able to show others how I see the world.

Dear Mum and Dad,

I am writing this letter to you from the central Australia. Now, we are staying near Ayers Rock. On the first day, we took a plane tour over the rock, and I was surprised 【1】 (介词) how big it was! During different periods of the day, the 【2】 (colour) of the rock turn dark blue, purple, yellow and red. Ayers Rock is a centre of local Aboriginal culture.

The Aborigines are the people that have lived in Australia from the【3】 ( early) times, and they believed that the spirits created the world.

The Australians have a close relationship with the British. Many Australians are like us in many ways. The foods that Australians like most are ham and beef with lots of salad. They also grow grapes and other fruits. They love all sports, but 【4】 (冠词) game that they like most is Australian football. They also love going to the beach for swimming and surfing or just 【5】 (lie) in the sun.

【6】 (连词) it is December, it is summer over here. The sun is very bright, and near the coast the countryside is very green. There are lots of 【7】 ( sheep) in the fields and on the hills, but the middle of the country has no trees or grass, just rocks and sand—And kangaroos!

Australians speak English, but in 【8】(they) own way. For example, when they say "G' day!" and " No worries.", they mean " Hello!" and "Don't worry about it. It's not a problem ! "

On the second day, we went horse riding. The horse that I rode was lazy, so I was 【9】 (leave) far behind the others. But I enjoyed the slow and relaxing ride.

Later this evening, we are taking the plane back to Sydney and coming home. It has 【10】 ( be) a wonderful trip.

Love,

Tony
