Now guess what Tony is going to say in his letter.
Dear Mum and Dad,
I am writing this letter to you from the center of Australia. At the moment, we are staying near Ayers Rock. On the first day, we took a plane tour over the rock, and I was surprised at how big it was: 3.6 kilometres long and 348 metres high! During different periods of the day, the colours of the rock turn dark blue, purple, yellow and red. Ayers Rock is a centre of local Aboriginal culture. The Aborigines are the people that have lived in Australia from the earliest times, and their ancient stories describe the spirits that created the world.
The Australians have a close relationship with the British. Many have British relatives, and they are like us in many ways. The foods that Australians like most are ham and beef with lots of salad. They also grow grapes and other fruits. They love all sports, but the game that they like most is Australian football. Because most Australians live near the coast, they also love going to the beach for swimming and surfing or just lying in the sun.

A Trip to Xiamen
Last summer holiday, I visited Xiamen with my parents by plane. My English teacher once told us that Xiamen is a beautiful city that is worth visiting. We stayed there for four days. We lived in a small fishing village. On the first day, we visited Xiamen University and Nanputuo Temple. Xiamen University is considered as the most beautiful and romantic campus in China.
Indeed, it’s fantastic and its buildings are beautiful. On the second day, we enjoyed the scenery of Jimei District. On the third day, we visited Gulangyu. It’s amazing and I like it very much. There are many small specific stores. However, a large number of visitors make the small island crowded. Anyway, it was a pleasant trip.
