Todd: Now, Aaron, Australia's a big place. Can you describe the Australian landscape?
托德：亞倫，澳大利亞非常大。你能描述一下澳大利亞的風景嗎？
Aaron: No worries. In Australia, there are cities and then there is country. Not many people live in the country, and the desert. About 70% of the population live on the East Coast on a very small area, and 80% maybe 70% of Australia is just desert. Nobody lives there, or it's just farms and nobody lives there as well. The cities aren't like Japan. They're very small cities, and there's a one high-rise area and then the rest of it is just flat.
亞倫：沒問題。澳大利亞有城市也有鄉村。住在鄉村和沙漠的人并不是很多。澳大利亞70%的人口都居住在東海岸，那是一片非常小的區域，其實澳大利亞有80%，也許是70%的地方都是沙漠。沒有人住在那里，當然也沒有人住在農田里。澳大利亞的城市與日本的不同。澳大利亞都是小城市，其中一個城市位于高海拔地區，其余的城市都位于平原地區。
Todd: How about the natural landscapes like deserts and rainforests, and things like that?
托德：那像沙漠和雨林這樣的自然景色怎么樣？
Aaron: No worries. The rainforests are in the south, mainly in Tasmania, and in the tropics to the north, but the desert is the center of Australia and the north of Australia as well and on the west coast. There's not much rainforest. There's a lot of desert. Not many rainforests and the rest is just built-up area. Suburban areas.
亞倫：嗯。雨林位于南部，主要在塔斯馬尼亞島和北部的熱帶地區，而沙漠則位于澳大利亞中部、北部以及西海岸。雨林并不多。但是沙漠面積廣大。雨林地區并不多，其他地方就是建筑物密集區。郊區等等。
Todd: Um, Australia is know for it's beaches. What area has the nicest beaches?
托德：嗯，澳大利亞的海灘非常著名。哪個地方的海灘最棒？
Aaron: The nicest beaches are probably in Queensland, or the Gold Coast. The West Coast has some great beaches as well, but there are now cities over there, so it's not so popular, but I think the best beaches are in Queensland, cause the pollution is so low. In the cities, in the south, the beaches are a bit dirty, so you can't always swim there.
亞倫：最好的海灘可能要屬昆士蘭的黃金海岸了。西海岸也有許多很棒的海灘，不過那里有許多城市，所以海灘沒有那么受歡迎，不過我認為最棒的海灘在昆士蘭，因為那里污染小。南部城市中的海灘有些臟，你不能經常在那里游泳。
