Ayers Rock 90年代英语课文
Ayers Rock is right in the center of Australia.It's nearly two thousand kilometers from Sydney,so we flew most of the way.It was rather cloudy at last.But after we left the mountains behind us ,there was hardly a cloud in the sky .Most of the land below looked like sand,though Dad told me it is greener than you think.“There are a lot of sheep down there”,he said“but hardly any people ”Ayers Rock is a large,low mountain.The sky after we arrived,we got up early in the morning before the sun rose.We started climbing up before it was light.It gets too hot for climbing later.Lower down,at the foot of Ayers Rock,most of the ground is covered with forest and grass ,and there are even a few small rivers .But when you climb higher,you will find nothing grows there at all.We didn't reach the top because it was too hot.All around it is sand.In the evening,when the sun goes down ,the sand is almost red .The sky is red too,so it is very beautiful.Though we only stayed there for a few days,we had a great time.
