See if you can ID me. In total land area, I`m one of the largest countries in the world. But my population is less than that of Texas. I`m made up for two territories and six states and I`m located in the southern hemisphere.
你是否能把我鑒別出來。我是世界上陸地面積最大的國家之一。但我的人口比德克薩斯州還少。我位于南半球,由兩大版圖及六個州組成。
Good day, mate. I`m Australia, and my 23 million people are governed by a constitutional monarchy and parliamentary democracy.
好的,伙計。我就是澳大利亞,在君主立憲制和議會民主制統治下,有二千三百萬人口。

Even though Australia is a member of the British commonwealth and its chief of state is Queen Elizabeth II, Australia`s law making power lies with its parliament. And that parliament, not Australian voters, decides who the country`s leader will be.
雖然澳大利亞是英聯邦成員國,其國家首領是伊麗莎白二世,但澳大利亞的立法權由議會決定。議會決定誰將擔任國家領導人,而不是澳大利亞選民。
It just decided on a new one. Former Communications Minister Malcolm Turnbull was sworn in yesterday as Australian`s 29th prime minister. He`s replacing former leader, Tony Abbott.
決定新的領導人。前通訊部部長特恩布爾馬爾科姆取締前領導人托尼阿伯特,宣誓就任澳大利亞第二十九任總理。
While many citizens are concerned about Australia`s slowing economy, Prime Minister Turnbull will have the additional challenge of stabilizing the country`s leadership. He`s Australia`s fourth prime minister in a little more than two years.
與此同時,許多民眾都在關注澳大利亞放緩的經濟,特恩布爾總理將面臨更多的挑戰,穩定其國家領導地位。他是兩年多里澳大利亞的第四任總理。
