Passage 1
Doll's Day
Tapescript
The third of March is an exciting day for little Japanese girls. They know it as Doll's Day. On that day, any household which has a daughter aged 2 between three and seven decorates the house with traditional dolls. They represent the royal family and members of the court. They are extremely delicate 3 and finely dressed.
The dolls may have been in the family for several generations, or -they may have been newly 4 presented to the daughter of the house, usually by the grandparents.
The little girls do not merely look at the dolls displayed in the houses. They themselves are dressed in elaborate 5 kimonos, again of traditional design. Then their parents accompany them to the sacred shrines 6. After they come back home, special rice cakes are eaten.
Doll's Day in Japan is for the girls, but the boys have their own turn later. Their festival occurs on May 5th, and this time the houses are decorated with armour 7, emphasizing 8: a traditional male role.
Passage 2
Australia Day
Tapescript
The 26th of January is a national holiday in Australia. It is called simply Australia Day. The official purpose of the holiday is to commemorate 9 the founding of the first settlement. That occurred in the year 1788 when Captain Arthur Phillip first raised the British flag in Sydney Cove 10.
In Sydney itself a flag-raising ceremony takes place. Throughout the country there are also parades and official speeches. Since January is a summer month in Australia something which seems rather strange to Europeans many people take advantage of the holiday and flock 11 to the beaches.
Australia is a continent in itself, and is nearly as large as the U. S. A. It has a tiny population, however, compared with the densely 12 populated European countries. The standard of living in the country is high and there is little doubt that Australians feel justifiably 13 proud when they celebrate their National Day.
