Gwondo was a trainer of dogs. He would go out every day with his dogs, to1them how to catch animals so that all his tribe(部落) could eat.
Wherever Gwondo went, his tribe could see him away in the distance 2his white hair would shine in the sunlight. The tribe3would say to their children, "See, there is Gwondo and his dogs, searching for4for us all." Gwondo went out hunting every day and always came5with much food. And all were very happy.
Now Gwondo grew6and as all humans do, one day he died. The tribe felt sad and cried many days and many nights7one day the elders called to their children, "You have cried enough for Gwondo. Now it is time to8living. Go down to the beach and be happy."
The children ran down to the beach and looked out to the sea.9 ， they all looked at each other, then turned and ran back to their elders，10, "Come quickly. Gwondo, he is back with us. He is out in the sea. "The elders hurried to the11and said, "Yes! It is Gwondo back! He is now a dolphin and lives in the sea."
Now whenever you see12dolphins in the sea, look for the big old dolphin. You will know him because he has a large white fin on13back. He is Gwondo and he is training the young dolphins to chase(追逐)14close to the beach so that his tribe can catch them.

Enough laws have been made to fight against pollution. The cities in Australia have got little air or water pollution. The sky is blue and the water is clean. You can clearly see fish swimming in the rivers. Plants grow very well.
Last month we visited Perth, the biggest city in Western Australia, and went to a wild flowers' exhibition (展览). There we saw a large number of wild flowers we had never seen before. We had a wonderful time. Perth is famous for its beautiful wild flowers. In spring, every year Perth has the wild flowers' exhibition. After visiting Perth, we spent a day in the countryside. We sat down and had a rest near a path at the foot of a hill. It was quiet and we enjoyed ourselves. Suddenly we heard bells ringing at the top of the hill. What we saw made us pick up all our things and run back to the car as quickly as we could. There were about three hundred sheep coming towards us down the path.
Australia is famous for its sheep and kangaroos. After a short drive from any town, you will find yourself in the middle of white sheep. Sheep, sheep, everywhere are sheep.
