interested in meeting people in Australia and experiencing their culture,food,and way of life.The nickname“down under”comes from the fact that Australia is on the bottom of most maps and globes.The nickname is not considered lacking respect,and is often used by Australians.do some research 做一些研究做一些研究over 在在期间期间Read for detailed informationBlog 1Next week Im travelling to Australia to visit a

I arrived,my friend has brought me to my first open-air barbecue and has also shared many different but yummy meals with me,so my first impressions of Australia have been all about food!A lot of typical Australian food,such as the Sunday roast,is originally British.Bakeries,fast-food joints,butcher shops,cafes,and restaurants everywhere provide some of the premier food experiences in the world.The influence of Asian cultures,on the other hand,led to the introduction of bean curd and Asian herbs,along with Australian versions of foods like the Chinese-inspired dim sim.Sunday roast is a meal in the UK,served on Sundays.Originally,its the meal served after church on Sunday.typical Australian food 澳大利亚的特色美食澳大利亚的特色美食Read for detailed informationBlog 2Im here in Sydney!Since I arrived,my

sim)”。从此,点心成为澳大利亚人口耳相传的美味小吃。premier food experiences 顶级的美食体验顶级的美食体验Read for detailed informationBlog 2How has Australian cuisine been influenced by different cultures?Im here in Sydney!Since I

native to Australia.The Aboriginal population might be small,but its influence is still visible.For example,“Bondi”in“Bondi Beach”is an Aboriginal word meaning“water breaking over rocks”.To survive in this vast land on the ocean,the Aborigines had to be in close contact with nature.This shows in their music,too,which celebrates the natural world and the spiritual world around them.Most of their musical instruments are really just sticks found on the ground,among which there is an amazing instrument called the didgeridoo.a member of a race of people who were the original people living in a

ground,among which there is an amazing instrument called the didgeridoo.What is the main theme reflected in Aboriginal music and why?The didgeridoo is made from a tree branch which is hollow.To play the didgeridoo,you put your mouth on one end and blow while vibrating your lips.Unlike a horn,there are no finger holes.The didgeridoo player has to change the shape of his mouth in order to change pitch.A skilled player can play for a long time without stopping to breathe.He does this by continually breathing in through his nose while breathing out through his mouth and into the didgeridoo.I tried to learn how to play it,but after trying for hours,I was convinced that I could never make a musical sound with this instrument!Read for detailed informationBlog 3v.(使)振动,颤(使)振动,颤动,摆动动,摆动Lets

cultures have also played a part in shaping the unique Australian culture,with many of the new cultural influences contributed by immigrants.It is said that now nearly half of all Australian citizens were either born overseas or have parents who were born overseas.the smaller part of a group“Although the main cultural influence since 1788 has been Western

biggest impression of Australia?Why?Her biggest impression is the complicated mix of peoples and cultures that make up the nation.She feels this perhaps because of the many different kinds of people she met.Personally speaking,what I like most about Australia is the people themselves.They have a straightforward and free-and-easy attitude towards life,and their friendliness and warmth made me feel at home wherever I went.After experiencing Australia,I have to say that I agree with the tourism slogan:“Theres nothing like Australia.”Read for detailed informationBlog 4Why does the author like
