Girl:Do you want to see my photos?

Boy:What photos?

Girl:The photos that I took in Australia.

Boy:Oh, yes, I’d love to see them.

Girl:Well, here I am in a zoo near Brisbane.

Boy:What’s the strange animal that you’re holding?

Girl:It’s a special Australian bear called a koala bear.It’s a lovely little animal that lives in trees.

Boy:It’s so cute!

Girl:Yes!And this photo was taken in the outback, a wild area that most people want to visit after the main tourist sights, because it’s so different from anywhere else.

Boy:It’s just sand and rocks, isn’t it?

Girl:Yes, it’s the driest and loneliest place that I’ve ever been to.Look — there’s nothing around, as far as you can see…And this is the hotel that I stayed in at the Great Barrier Reef.

Boy:It looks wonderful— right on the beach!

Girl:Yes, it was amazing.

Boy:Did you take this photo underwater?

Girl:Yes, with a special camera that I borrowed from my uncle.

Boy:It must have been a wonderful sight, all those fish …

Girl:It was probably the most beautiful thing I have ever seen.It’s an experience I’ll never forget.
