theGreatBarrierReef(大堡礁)

anaturalwonderover2,600kilometreslongTheGreatBarrierReef大堡礁是世界最大最長的珊瑚礁群，它位于澳大利亞東北部昆士蘭省對岸，是一處延綿2000公里的地段，它縱貫蜿蜒于澳大利亞東海岸。在落潮時，部分的珊瑚礁露出水面形成珊瑚島。在礁群與海岸之間是一條極方便的交通海路。風平浪靜時，游船在此間通過，船下連綿不斷的多彩、多形的珊瑚景色，就成為吸引世界各地游客獵奇觀賞的最佳海底奇觀。

SydneyOperaHouse（悉尼歌劇院）It’slikeahugesailingboat

onthreesides.TheSydneyOperaHouse悉尼歌劇院是澳大利亞全國表演藝術中心。又稱海中歌劇院。它矗立在新南威爾士州首府悉尼市貝尼朗岬角上，緊靠著世界著名的海港大橋的一塊小半島上，三面環海，南端與市內植物園和政府大廈遙遙相望。建筑造型新穎奇特、雄偉瑰麗，外形猶如一組揚帆出海的船隊，也像一枚枚屹立在海灘上的潔白大貝殼，與周圍海上的景色渾然一體。

AyersRock（烏努努/艾爾斯巖）incentralAustralia

Accordingtolocalpeople,it’samagicalplace.

Uluru/AyersRock烏奴奴/艾爾斯巖屹立在沙漠中心,高348米,周界9.3公里，是叢林漫步和攀山人士無法抗拒的誘惑。在烏奴奴，單是日出和日落，就足以令你目瞪口呆。日出日落時分，大石閃耀出的幻變光彩比陽光還要奪目,從黑變紫、藍變棕、橙變紅,它的顏色甚至會隨天氣而改變,跟四周的平坦的沙漠形成強烈對比.AnimalsinAustraliakangaroocrocodilesharkkoalasheep2.Listenagainandcompletethesentences.ThecountrythatTonywouldliketovisitis
