See if you can ID me. In total land area, I`m one of the largest countries in the world. But my population is less than that of Texas. I`m made up for two territories and six states and I`m located in the southern hemisphere.
你是否能把我鉴别出来。我是世界上陆地面积最大的国家之一。但我的人口比德克萨斯州还少。我位于南半球,由两大版图及六个州组成。
Good day, mate. I`m Australia, and my 23 million people are governed by a constitutional monarchy and parliamentary democracy.

Even though Australia is a member of the British commonwealth and its chief of state is Queen Elizabeth II, Australia`s law making power lies with its parliament. And that parliament, not Australian voters, decides who the country`s leader will be.
虽然澳大利亚是英联邦成员国,其国家首领是伊丽莎白二世,但澳大利亚的立法权由议会决定。议会决定谁将担任国家领导人,而不是澳大利亚选民。
It just decided on a new one. Former Communications Minister Malcolm Turnbull was sworn in yesterday as Australian`s 29th prime minister. He`s replacing former leader, Tony Abbott.
决定新的领导人。前通讯部部长特恩布尔马尔科姆取缔前领导人托尼阿伯特,宣誓就任澳大利亚第二十九任总理。
While many citizens are concerned about Australia`s slowing economy, Prime Minister Turnbull will have the additional challenge of stabilizing the country`s leadership. He`s Australia`s fourth prime minister in a little more than two years.
与此同时,许多民众都在关注澳大利亚放缓的经济,特恩布尔总理将面临更多的挑战,稳定其国家领导地位。他是两年多里澳大利亚的第四任总理。
