人教版新教材选择性必修第四册 Workbook Unit 2 Reading and Writing WHAT'S COOKING IN AUSTRALIA?澳大利亚的美食是什么？ To fully appreciate Australian cuisine, you have to consider the unique nature of its wildlife and geography. For one thing, there are the wide plains in the interior of the country, which are home to millions of grazing animals. For another, there is Australia's long coastline which is next to all the riches of the sea. It is no wonder then that much of Australian cuisine centres around red meat and seafood. 要想充分欣赏澳大利亚的美食，您必须考虑到其野生动物和地理环境的独特性质。首先，澳大利亚内陆有宽阔的平原，这里是数百万只放牧动物的家园。其二，是澳大利亚漫长的海岸线，旁边是所有的海洋财富。难怪澳大利亚的很多美食都是围绕着红肉和海鲜展开的。 One of the most popular red meats in Australia is also unique to the continent: kangaroo.

Perhaps this is one reason why so many Australians live near the coast. Since the coastline is so long. each region has its own dishes that are related to the seafood found in its waters. The list of seafood available at the local fish market is like a tour of the coast: salmon, prawns, oysters, tuna, shark, crab, and many more. However, if you want to really take in the full experience, you should go to the fish market in Sydney early in the morning and see the fish being prepared for sale. Better yet, you can sign up to go deep-sea fishing. 至于海鲜，很多最早来到澳洲的欧洲人都喜欢大海。或许这也
