I plan to keep this blog to record my experiences and [1]what I learn. I have already done some research on① the country. Located② to the south of the equator③， below many other countries on the globe, it's often informally referred to as④ “down under⑤”． [1]此处为what引导的宾语从句，作record的宾语，what在从句中作learn的宾语。 I have also read about some iconic sites, such as the Sydney Opera House and the Great Ocean Road, and animals like the cute koalas⑥ and kangaroos.I can't wait to⑦ see all of them! [2]However, as I major in⑧ social studies, I'm more interested in meeting people in Australia and experiencing their culture, food, and way of life. [2]本句中as引导原因状语从句；句中第一个and连接两个动名词短语，作interested后介词in的宾语。 1 Oct I'm here in Sydney! Since I arrived, my friend has brought me to my first open­air barbecue⑨ 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 originally⑩ British. Bakeries⑪， fast­food joints⑫， butcher⑬ shops, cafes, and restaurants everywhere provide some of the premier⑭ food experiences in the world. The influence of Asian cultures, on the other hand⑮， led to⑯ the introduction of bean curd and Asian herbs⑰， along with⑱ Australian versions of foods like the Chinese­inspired dim sim⑲. 3 Oct My friend and I have arrived in Katherine, a town in Australia's Northern Territory. [3]We're here to learn about the life and customs of the Aborigines, who are native to⑳ Australia. The Aboriginal population might be small, but its influence is still visible. For example, “Bondi” in “Bondi Beach” is an Aboriginal word [4]meaning “water breaking over rocks”． [3]本句中“to learn...”为动词不定式作目的状语；who引导非限制性定语从句，修饰先行词Aborigines。 [4]此处为现在分词短语作后置定语。 [5]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, [6]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. [5]此处“To survive...”为动词不定式作目的状语。 [6]此处为which引导的非限制性定语从句。 The didgeridoo is made from a tree branch [7]which is hollow. To play the didgeridoo, you put your mouth on one end and blow while vibrating 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 pitch. A skilled player can play for a long time without stopping to breathe. He does this by continually breathing in through his nose [8]while breathing out through his mouth and into the didgeridoo. [9] 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! [7]此处为which引导的定语从句，修饰先行词a tree branch。 [8]此处为状语从句的省略形式。 [9]本句中but连接表示转折关系的句子；第二个分句中that引导宾语从句。 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 complicated mix of peoples and cultures that make up the nation. [10]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 immigrants. It is said that now nearly half of all Australian citizens were either born overseas or have parents who were born overseas. [10]本句中Although引导让步状语从句，句中包含with复合结构。 Personally speaking， what I like most about Australia is the people themselves. They have a straightforward and free­and­easy attitude towards life, and their friendliness and warmth made me feel at home[11]wherever I went. [11]此处为wherever引导的让步状语从句。 After experiencing Australia, I have to say that I agree with the tourism slogan：“There's nothing like Australia.” 9月25日 趁学校放假，下周我将去澳大利亚看望一位朋友。我计划用这个博客来记录我的经历和我所学到的东西。我已经对这个国家做了一番研究。它位于赤道以南，在地球上很多其他国家的下方，常被非正式地称为“down under”。 我也看了一些标志性景点(的介绍)，比如悉尼歌剧院和大洋路，还有像可爱的考拉和袋鼠这样的动物(的资料)。我迫不及待地想见到所有的这一切！不过，因为我主修社会研究，所以我对结识澳大利亚人并体验他们的文化、饮食和生活方式更感兴趣。 10月1日 我在悉尼啦！自从我来到这里，朋友就带着我去吃了我的第一次露天烧烤，还与我分享了许多风格各异但很美味的佳肴，所以我对澳大利亚的第一印象都是关于食物的！很多澳大利亚的特色美食都源自英国，比如星期日烤肉。随处可见的面包店、快餐店、肉店、咖啡馆和餐馆提供了世界上顶级的美食体验。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，还引入了豆腐和亚洲药草。 10月3日 我和朋友已经到达了位于澳大利亚北部地区的小镇凯瑟琳。我们此行的目的是了解土著人的生活和习俗，他们是澳大利亚的原住民。土著人的人口可能很少，但其影响依旧可见。例如，“邦迪海滩”中的“邦迪”就是一个意为“拍打着岩石的海浪”的土著词汇。 为了在海洋中的这片辽阔的土地上生存，土著人必须和大自然保持密切的联系。这也体现在他们的音乐中，这些音乐歌颂着他们周围的自然世界和精神世界。他们的大多数乐器其实就是在地上找到的树枝，其中就有一种叫作迪吉里杜管的、令人惊叹的乐器。 迪吉里杜管由一根空心的树枝制成。吹奏迪吉里杜管时，你要把嘴靠在它的末端，一边吹一边振动你的嘴唇。与号不同，迪吉里杜管没有指孔。(所以)吹奏迪吉里杜管的演奏者必须靠改变嘴形才能改变音高。一名娴熟的演奏者可以长时间吹奏，不用停下来换气。为了达到这种程度，演奏者不停地通过鼻子吸气，同时通过他的嘴向迪吉里杜管呼气。我尝试着学习如何吹奏它，但经过几个小时的努力，我只能确信我永远都无法用这个乐器发出乐声！ 10月6日 差不多是我跟澳大利亚说再见的时候了。在这里我过得十分愉快。在这里住了一段时间之后，给我留下最深刻印象的是不同种族和文化的交融组成了这个国家。尽管自1788年以来，主要的文化影响来自西方文化，但少数族裔文化在塑造独特的澳大利亚文化方面也发挥了作用，还有许多随着移民而来的新文化的影响。据说现在将近一半的澳大利亚公民要么是自己出生于海外，要么是他们的父母出生于海外。 就我个人而言，我最喜欢的是澳大利亚人本身。他们对待生活的态度坦率且无拘无束，他们的友善和热情让我无论走到哪里都有宾至如归的感觉。 在游历了澳大利亚之后，我不得不说我赞同他们的旅游口号：“澳大利亚，无与伦比。” 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
