Australia is an English-speaking country. It is on the other side of the world. The Commonwealth of Australia includes continent of Australia, the island of Tasmania and a number of smaller islands. It has an area of about eight million square kilometers.

The continent of Australia is mostly a great plain with mountains in the east and southeast. The western part of the continent forms a plateau, which occupies half of the continent. The central Lowlands, a great part of which is very dry, lie between the Western Australian plateau and Eastern Highlands. Through the eastern part of these Central Lowlands run Australia’s greatest rivers, the Murray and the Darling. A number of short rivers floe from the Australian Alps and Blue Mountains into the Pacific Ocean. What will you find if you go to Australia? It will seem to you an upside-down world. New Year is in the middle of summer, the middle of winter is in June, and the winter months are never cold. Hot winds blow from the north, cold winds blow the south. The native trees such as the eucalyptus, the bottle trunk look very strange, and they never lose their leaves in winter.

Australia is a land of birds and wild animals, which cannot be found in other parts of the world/ they are the emu, the kangaroo, the koala, the echidna the dingo and many others.

What about the climate? The sun shines brightly in winter and it is very hot summer. There is not much rain in many parts of the country.

There are five big cities in Australia^ Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, Perth and Bristol. Each city is the capital of the state in which it is situated. They are also the main ports.

Motor-car, machine –building, clothing and food industries are highly developed.
