Next week I’m travelling to Australia to visit a friend there over the school holidays. I plan to keep this blog to record my experiences and what I learn. I have already done some research on the country. Located to the south of the equator, below many other countries on the globe, it’s often informally referred to as “down under”. I have also read about some iconic sites, such as the Sydney Opera House and the Great Ocean Road, and animals like the cute koalas and kangaroos. I can’t wait to see all of them! However, as I major in social studies, I’m more interested in meeting people in Australia and experiencing their culture, food, and way of life.
The nickname “down under” comes from the fact that Australia is on the bottom of most maps and globes. The nickname is not considered lacking respect, and is often used by Australians.

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 originally 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 versions of foods like the Chinese-inspired dim sim.
Sunday roast is a meal in the UK, served on Sundays. Originally, it’s the meal served after church on Sunday.

澳大利亚的“点心”小吃是在1942年出现的。当时，被称为“点心之父”的中澳商人陈荣享意识到，在19世纪的淘金热期间，许多来澳大利亚工作的中国老人都没有工作。陈荣享发现中式小吃，尤其是烧麦，在澳大利亚非常受欢迎。他想，如果自己大量生产烧麦，让这些同胞去售卖，这样不就解决了他们的生存问题吗？为了让产品更快打入本土市场，他把外国人很难念的“烧麦”换成了熟悉的“点心(dim sim)”。从此，点心成为澳大利亚人口耳相传的美味小吃。

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 to Australia. The Aboriginal population might be small, but its influence is still visible. For example, “Bondi” in “Bondi Beach” is an Aboriginal word meaning “water breaking over rocks”.
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.

What is the main theme reflected in Aboriginal music and why
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 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 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!

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. 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.
the smaller part of a group
“Although the main cultural influence since 1788 has been Western culture” 澳大利亚作为英国的殖民地,起初并不被重视。因为离亚洲太远,而且当时还是个不毛之地。为此,英国是将其视作“流放之地”。1788年1月，英国开始向澳大利亚流放罪犯，以解决监狱人满为患的问题，第一舰队由11艘船只组成，载着730多名罪犯在澳大利亚植物学湾（悉尼东南部）登陆。殖民开始了。随着殖民的开始，西方文化也随之流入这片土地。

What is the writer’s biggest impression of Australia Why
Her biggest impression is the complicated mix of peoples and cultures that make up the nation. She feels this perhaps because of the many different kinds of people she met.
Personally speaking, what I like most about Australia is the people themselves. They have a straightforward and free-and-easy attitude towards life, and their friendliness and warmth made me feel at home wherever I went.
After experiencing Australia, I have to say that I agree with the tourism slogan: “There’s nothing like Australia.”

Tips for taking notes
When you read a passage, sometimes it helps to take notes so that you can better remember and understand what you have learnt. When you take notes, it is good to write down the important facts just using key words and ignore many of the small words. You can also use abbreviations, such as “Aus” for “Australia” and “N” for “north”, and use symbols such as “&” for “and”.
Abbreviation Symbol pare ∴ therefore
c. about / approximately ∵ because
imp important/importance ≠ differs from, is the opposite of
tho though = is / are / have / has / equals
