实战口语情景对话 第362期:Australia 澳大利亚

The Australian flag has the Union Jack in the top left-hand corner. The rest of the flag is dark blue and then it has six white stars on it. I think they represent six different states in Australia, but I'm not really sure.
澳大利亚国旗的左上角是英国的米字旗。国旗的其他地方是深蓝色的，上面有六颗星星。我想星星代表的是澳大利亚的六个州，不过我不太确定。

My favorite city in Australia is Sydney. I lived there for about 6 months and it's a really lively city. There are lots of young people and lots of things to do. There are also lots of tourist sites to visit, for example, the Sydney Opera House.
我最喜欢的澳大利亚城市是悉尼。我在那里生活了六个月，那里真的是个活力十足的城市。悉尼有许多年轻人，而且有很多事情可以做。当然那里也有许多可以参观的旅游景点，比如悉尼歌剧院。

Most people when they think about Australia, they think about the Outback. Very few people in Australia live in the Outback really, which is why it is so empty. There are huge empty spaces, like deserts, sometimes, where you can go for hours without seeing even one other person.
大多数人在提到澳大利亚的时候，会首先想到澳大利亚的内陆地区。其实澳大利亚生活在内陆地区的人非常少，这就是那里很空旷的原因。澳大利亚有大片的空旷区域，就像沙漠，有时你在那个区域走了数小时都看不到其他人。

When I was in the Outback, the most amazing sight I saw was Ayers Rock, or Uluru as it's called now, which is its Aboriginal name. So Uluru is the biggest rock in the world, and it really is amazing when you travel through the Outback and then suddenly, out of nowhere, you see a huge rock that looks like a mountain. It's an amazing sight, one of the best I saw in Australia.
我生活在澳大利亚内陆地区时，看到的最惊异的景象就是艾尔斯巨石，也可以称为乌鲁鲁，这是它的土著语名字。乌鲁鲁是世界上最大的岩石，非常惊奇的事情是，当你在澳大利亚内陆地区旅行时，它会突然一下子冒出来，你会看到一个像山一样的山石。这真是令人惊奇的景观，是我在澳大利亚看到的最棒的景观之一。
