However，as I major in⑤ social studies，I'm more interested in meeting people in Australia and experiencing their culture，food，and way of life . 句中“as I major in social studies”是as引导的原因状语从句。 1 Oct I'm here in Sydney! Since 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 originally⑥ 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 versions⑦ of foods like the Chinese-inspired⑧ dim sim. 3 Oct My friend and I have arrived in Katherine，a town in Australia's Northern Territory.We're here to learn about the life and customs of the Aborigines，who are native to⑨ Australia.The Aboriginal population might be small，but its influence is still visible⑩.For example，“Bondi” in “Bondi Beach” is an Aboriginal word meaning “water breaking over rocks”. 学生用书第39页 句中“meaning ‘water breaking over rocks’”是动词-ing形式短语作后置定语，修饰名词word。 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 . 句中“found on the ground”是动词-ed形式短语作后置定语，修饰名词sticks；among which...是“介词＋which”引导的非限制性定语从句，修饰先行词sticks。 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 vibrating⑪ 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 pitch⑫.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! 句中“while vibrating”是时间状语从句的省略结构。 6 Oct It's almost time for me to say goodbye to Australia.I've enjoyed my time here very much. After being here for a while，my biggest impression is the complicated⑬ mix of peoples and cultures that make up the nation .Although the main cultural influence since 1788 has been Western culture，minority cultures have also played a part in shaping the unique Australian culture，with many of the new cultural influences contributed by immigrants⑭.It is said that now nearly half of all Australian citizens were either born overseas or have parents who were born overseas. 句中“that make up the nation”是that引导的定语从句，修饰先行词peoples and cultures。 句中“with...contributed by immigrants”是with复合结构，即“with＋宾语＋宾语补足语”。 学生用书第40页 Personally speaking，what I like most about Australia is the people themselves.They have a straightforward⑮ and free-and-easy attitude towards life，and their friendliness and warmth made me feel at home⑯ wherever I went. 句中“what I like most about Australia”是what引导的主语从句。 After experiencing Australia，I have to say that I agree with the tourism slogan⑰：“There's nothing like Australia.” …………………………………………………………………………………◎ 9月25日 下周学校放假期间，我要去澳大利亚拜访一位朋友。我打算用这个博客来记录我的经历和学到的东西。我已经查阅了一番有关澳大利亚的资料。(澳大利亚)位于赤道以南，并在地球上很多国家的下方，它常被非正式地称为“down under”。 我也读过关于澳大利亚的一些标志性景点的信息，比如悉尼歌剧院和大洋路，还有代表性的动物，比如可爱的考拉和袋鼠。我迫不及待地想见到所有这一切！但是由于我的专业是社会研究，所以我更感兴趣的是去接触澳大利亚的人们，体验他们的文化、食物和生活方式。 10月1日 我现在在悉尼！自从我到了这里，我朋友就带我体验了我(人生中的)第一次露天烧烤，还带我品尝了各种与众不同但美味的饭菜，所以我对澳大利亚的第一印象都是关于食物的！许多典型的澳大利亚食物，如周日烤肉，最初源自英国。面包店、快餐店、肉铺、咖啡馆和随处可见的餐馆都能为人们提供世界一流的美食体验。另一方面，受亚洲文化的影响，除了灵感源自中国的点心等澳大利亚版的食物以外，还引入了豆腐和(用于调味的)亚洲药草。 10月3日 我和朋友来到了凯瑟琳镇，这是澳大利亚北部领地的一个小镇。我们来这里是为了了解澳大利亚土著居民的生活和习俗。土著人口的数量也许很少，但其影响在今天仍然是显而易见的。例如，“邦迪海滩”中的“邦迪”就是一个土著词汇，意思是“海水冲破岩石”。 为了在这片四面环海的广阔的土地上生存，土著居民不得不与大自然密切联系在一起。这也体现在他们的音乐中，其音乐的主题多为歌颂他们身处的自然世界和精神世界。他们绝大多数的乐器其实就是在地上找到的树枝，其中就有一种令人惊叹的叫作迪吉里杜管的乐器。 迪吉里杜管是用空心的树枝制成的。吹奏时，嘴要对着管身的一端，一边吹一边振动双唇。和号角不同，迪吉里杜管没有手指孔，演奏者必须通过改变嘴唇的形状来改变音调高低。一名熟练的演奏者可以长时间不停地演奏而不用停下来换气，他通过不断用鼻子吸气，同时通过嘴巴吐气，并将气吹入迪吉里杜管中做到这一点。我试着学习吹奏它，但尝试了几个小时后，我确信我永远也无法用这个乐器发出乐声！ 10月6日 我快要离开澳大利亚了。这段时间我过得很开心。待了一段时间后，这里令我印象最深刻的是不同种族和文化的交融构成了这个国家。虽然自1788年以来，这里主要受西方文化影响，但少数族裔文化也对澳大利亚独特文 学生用书第41页 化的形成起到了一定的作用，其中许多新的文化影响是由移民带来的。据说，现在近一半的澳大利亚公民要么是在海外出生的，要么他们的父母是在海外出生的。 就我个人而言，我最喜欢的是澳大利亚人本身。他们的生活态度坦率且无拘无束，且他们的友善和温暖让我无论到哪里都感到轻松自在。 体验了澳大利亚的风土人情后，我不得不说，我无比赞同这个旅游口号：“澳大利亚无与伦比。” 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
