by coach, as long as, worry about, look forward to, at the end of, go for a walk |
My holiday is coming Yesterday I asked my friends about the best way to travel in the USA They said the best way was to go by bus and told me the reasons.
To fly, of course, is the fastest way, but you can't see anything during your stay in the air but the blue sky and white clouds. So it's not very interesting to you. And the cost is very high.
To travel by train is relaxing because you can walk and buy food and drinks on it. You can also see cities and the countryside through the windows. But sometimes it's crowded on the train. And it's hard to buy train tickets during holidays
To travel by bus is easy, cheap and convenient, though not so fast as travelling by plane or so comfortable as by train. You can find buses almost in every city, big or small. That makes travel easy.
I took their advice. So I decided to take a bus to the south coast for an interesting trip.
The seasons in Australia are not like ours. When it is winter in China, it is summer there. Australia is a southern country; it is in the south of the world. June, July and August are the winter months; September, October and November are spring; the summer is in January, February and December; and March, April and May are the autumn months. The north of the country is hotter than the south.
A very large part of this country has no rain at all. The east coast (海岸地区) has rain all year, and there are no dry months there. The southeast winds blow (吹) here all the year. They bring rain from the sea. There is not much rain on the west side. The southeastern part of Australia has summer rain from the southeast winds. They only blow here in summer.
The southwestern part of Australia has winter rain. The west winds blow over the southwest in winter only. In summer, the southwest of the country has no rain. In the north of Australia, there is no rain in winter. The rain comes in summer. The northwest winds bring it.
