Australia is the greatest island in the world. 1.澳大利亚比中国小一点.

Australia is big, but there are fewer people there. The population(人口) of Australia is smaller than that of Shanghai, a city of China.

2.Australia is in the south of the earth. So when it is hot summer in our country, Australia will be cold winter. The seasons in Australia and in China are just opposite(相反的). Summer in Australia is from December to February, and winter is from July to August. 3.When it’s spring in China, it will be autumn in Australia.

4.澳大利亚因绵羊和袋鼠而著名. They are both popular in Australia.

5.You can see kangaroos(袋鼠) not only in zoos but also outside the cities and towns. There are ten sheep for everyone in the country. So people call Australia “The country on the backs of sheep”. After a short drive from any town, you will find yourself in the middle of white sheep. Sheep, sheep, sheep, sheep are everywhere.

Have you seen a kangaroo? It has a “bag” on its body. The mother kangaroo keeps its baby kangaroos in the “bag”. It’s very strange, isn’t it?
