Pupil 1  (см.  Слайд № 6)    

It is the world's largest island and its smallest continent. The continent is south of the Equator. Much of the land is a useless desert. Great deserts cover nearly 2,000,000 square kilometers. Most of the continent is sunny most of the year. Its population is very small for such a huge country. Many people live far away from towns in the outback. Severe droughts, floods and cyclones happen very often on the continent. The people suffer from limited fresh water.

Pupil 2 (см.  Слайд № 7)       

Thanks to Australia is cut off from the rest of the world, its wildlife is so unique. Australia's geological isolation has resulted in many species not found elsewhere. The most peculiar feature in  Australia's animals is pouch. The best-known are kangaroo, the ostrich , the koala bear, the possum. Possums live in Central and South Australia. They  eat insects, berries, fruit, and dog food. Wild possums do not live very long. People kill possums as food.

Pupil 3 (см.  Слайд № 8)       

The koala is the best known and most loved animals in Australia. They seldom drink, and take enough water from leaves. The koala sleeps in the trees for most of the day, but moves and feeds at night. A koala’s life in the world is about 12years, but they have been known to live for 15years in captivity.

Pupil 3 (см.  Слайд № 12) Millions of years ago, Australia was part of a huge continent called Gondwanaland. But then Gondwanaland slowly moved and formed several different areas of land. So, Australia became cut off from the rest of the world. Probably, due to its geographical position, Australia was the last continent inhabited by the white man. In 1768 Capitan Cook sailed from England to the Pacific Ocean. For many months the sailors didn't see any land. In 1770 the sailors saw the land with many different trees and beautiful flowers on the coast. It was Australia.
