[00:01.67]But it's not the only sport Australians
[00:04.05]are fond of.
[00:05.41]Because the weather's so good.
[00:07.18]Australians like being outdoors.
[00:09.72]Walking, fishing, horse-riding, tennis,
[00:12.82]golf and sailing 1 are all popular.
[00:15.45]We take sport very seriously
[00:17.50]and have produced great Olympic swimmers
[00:19.82]and top cyclists.
[00:21.19]So is Australia all about beach barbecues
[00:24.37]and surfing?
[00:25.31]What about art and literature?
[00:27.54]Contrary to popular belief,
[00:29.34]Australia is not a dull place at all
[00:31.44]for people wanting culture.
[00:33.22]There's really lively cultural scene here.
[00:36.43]Australia has produced some famous painters
[00:39.24]and world--class writers.
[00:41.06]And in Sydney,
[00:42.15]you'll find a broad choice of opera,
[00:44.52]drama, classical 2 concerts,rock concerts
[00:48.18]there's too much choice realy!
[00:50.44]Of course, things are more limited
[00:52.82]if you live in a small town.
[00:54.78]Now, is there anything
[00:55.78]you don't like about Australia?
[00:58.07]I can't bear the way the native Australians
[01:00.98]have been treated.
[01:02.64]They are now a minority group
[01:04.77]and most of them live in terrible conditions
[01:07.59]while the rest of us are quite well-off.
[01:10.22]I think that's unfair.
[01:12.20]The government,is trying to improve things,
[01:14.74]but it seems a bit late,
[01:16.85]I wonder if they'll ever forgive the way
[01:19.58]they've been treated.
[01:19.58]
