    In the countryside of China, many people are moving to cities to find work. They move because often there isn't much work in the countryside. Services like hospitals and schools are usually not very nice there.

The traffic is heavy. Living in the cities costs too much. They want a big house with a garden and fresh air. So they move the countryside with clean water and green trees.

    Australia is the greatest island in the world.  Australia is a little smaller than China.

    Australia is big, but there are fewer people there. The population of Australia is smaller than that of Shanghai, a city of China.

    Australia is in the south of the earth. So when it is hot summer in our country, Australia will be cold winter. The seasons in Australia and in China are just opposite. Summer in Australia is from December to February, and winter is from July to August. When it's spring in China, it will be autumn in Australia.

    Australia is famous for sheep and kangaroos(袋鼠）. They are both popular in Australia. 

    You can see kangaroos not only in zoos but also outside the cities and towns. There are ten sheep for everyone in the country. So people call Australia "The country on the backs of sheep ". After a short drive from any town, you will find yourself in the middle of white sheep. Sheep, sheep, sheep, sheep are everywhere.

    Have you seen a kangaroo? It has a "bag" on its body. The mother kangaroo keeps its baby kangaroos in the "bag". It's very strange, isn't it?

    History is still a compulsory (必修的) subject at lower levels and pupils still choose to study it at higher levels. However, there is an outgoing discussion about whether schools should continue to teach history. This passage will deal with the arguments that oppose and support teaching history in school, concluding that we should teach history, because the value of the subject goes beyond the classroom.

    First of all, many pupils suggest that history is one of the less interesting school subjects and that governments should spend the time and money on subjects that are more useful. Some people argue that math and English are should spend the money on more important so we can have a society with a good basic education. Other people say that teaching science, as this can move a country forward and benefit the economy. However, when we teach history, we are just looking back at the past. The economic benefits of this area are less obvious.

    On the other hand, there are several reasons why it is a good idea to teach history. Teaching history is important because students should be able to understand the background to current issues in the news. This will create better-informed citizens. Another reason is that it helps pupils to understand the culture and background of the society they live in. In addition to learning about the past, history teaching can help students to think for themselves. Finally, it also improves pupils' reading and writing skills, which can help them become better students.

    In conclusion, though there are clearly arguments on both sides, it seems to me that we should of the classes. I would say the teaching of history helps to create well-educated generation.
