二、阅读理解。(2016,孝感)
Dear mum and dad,
I'm writing this letter to you from the center of Australia.At the moment we're staying near Uluru—that's the aboriginal (土著) name for Ayers Rock.On the first day,we took a balloon tour over the rock,and I was surprised at how big it was:3.6 kilometers long and 384 meters high.The colors of the rock are fantastic,and at different times of the day,they change from purple to red.The Aborigines are the first people of Australia,and the ancient aboriginal stories describe the spirits that created the world.Uluru is a center of Aboriginal culture.
The Australians have many British relatives.That's why they're like us in many ways.Their family life is similar to ours,and they enjoy the same food and hobbies.The food and drink that most Australians like are grapes,lamb,ham and especially wine that they make in the south of the country.They love all sports,but football is the most popular.Most Australians live near the coast,so they also love going to the beach,swimming and surfing.
Although it's December,it's summer over here.The sunshine is very bright,and near the coast the countryside is very green.There are lots of sheep in the fields and on the hills,but the outback (澳洲内陆) is more like a desert,full of rocks and sand.
The next day after we arrived at Uluru,we went on a camel (骆驼) ride.The camel that I rode had a bad temper.When I sat on its back,it became very angry and refused me.So everyone else thought it was very funny that my camel kept lying down...
Finally,later this evening,we're taking the plane back to Sydney and coming home,it's been a fantastic trip!
Tony

Nowadays it's common for parents to drive their children to school and back home,which has caused a heated discussion.
Some parents think it saves time.It is very safe.And it offers more chances to communicate with their children.So they can get along well with their children.
However,other parents think it's more crowded around schools.There have been several traffic accidents recently.And the polluted air is bad for our health.
