①Uluru
That’s the aboriginal name for Ayers Rock. 3.6 kilometers long and 348 meters high.
The colors of the rock change from purple to red at different times of the day.
It’s a centre of Aboriginal culture.
②The Aborigines
They live in Australia from the earliest times, and the ancient Aboriginal stories
describe the spirits that created the world.
③Australian lifestyle
Their family life is similar to ours. Most Australians like grapes, lamb, ham, and wine. They love all sports, but the game that they love the most are football, cricket, and rugby. Because most of the Australians live near the coast, they love going to the beach, swimming and surfing
④Weather
Although it’s December, it’s summer over there. The sunshine is very bright.
