Australia is a land of exceptional beauty. It is the world's smallest continent and largest island, and a relatively young nation established in an ancient land. A series of geological and historical accidents has made Australia one of the world's most attractive counties from the tourist's viewpoint. This country has a land area of 7,686, 850 square kilometers and its coastline is 36,735 kilometers.// The vast movements of the earth's crust created a vast land of Australia, isolated it and positioned it across the tropical and temperate climatic zones. This land has a small population, which left enormous areas unspoiled. Here you witness an astonishing variety of environments, from desert to rain forest, tropical beach to white snowfield, from big, sophisticated cities to vast uninhabited areas.//

　　澳大利亞是一個異常美麗的國家。這是世界最小的洲，也是最大的島，是在古老的土地上建立起來的較為年輕的國家。地質(zhì)史上，這塊土地的地貌形態(tài)發(fā)生了一系列變化，澳大利亞在旅游者眼中成了世界上最吸引人的國家之一。這個國家的陸地面積為7686850平方公里，海岸線長達(dá)36735公里。//地殼的劇烈運(yùn)動使澳大利亞成了幅員遼闊，與大陸分離，地處溫、熱帶地區(qū)的國家。由于澳大利亞可以觀賞到各種地形風(fēng)貌，從沙漠到熱帶雨林，從地處熱帶的海灘到白雪皚皚的田野，從撲朔迷離的大都市到人跡罕到的曠野，景觀各異，令人嘆為觀止。//
