William Lindesay, a British traveler and writer, has been exploring the Great Wall—one of the human's most wonderful building projects. Not even a Chinese knows the Great Wall of China as well as he does.
When, as a schoolboy, Lindesay announced his plan to explore the Great Wall, nobody took him seriously. But Lindesay achieved his goal, by spending 25 years on the Great Wall and has become one of the world's most famous experts on its rich history. Lindesay now lives and works in Beijing. This year his new book has come out, The Great Wall Explained, with a lot of photographs and articles.
Running on the Great Wall was a brave trip and Lindesay had already run 3,000 kilometers along it! During those years, he got to many villages along the way. He was often helped by friendly villagers, although they didn’t quite understand why the Englishman would have such interest in the Great Wall.

B
Dear mum and dad,
I'm writing this letter to you from the center of Australia. At themoment we’re staying near Uluru—that’s the aboriginal(土著) name for Ayers Rock. On the first day, we took a balloontour over the rock, and I was surprised at how big it was: 3.6 kilometers longand 384 meters high. The colors of the rock are fantastic, and at differenttimes of the day, they change from purple to red. The Aborigines are thefirst people of Australia, and the ancient aboriginal stories describe the spirits that created the world. Uluru isa center of Aboriginal culture.
The Australians have many British relatives. That's why they're like usin many ways. Their family life is similar to ours, and they enjoy the samefood and hobbies. The food and drink that most Australians like are grapes,lamb, ham and especially wine that they make in the south of the country. Theylove all sports, but football is the most popular. Most Australians live nearthe coast, so they also love going to the beach, swimming and surfing.
Although it's December, it's summer over here. The sunshine is verybright, and near the coast the countryside is very green. There are lots ofsheep in the fields and on the hills, but the outback(澳洲內(nèi)陸) is more like a desert, full of rocks and sand.
The next day after we arrived at Uluru, we went on a camel(駱駝) ride. The camel that I rode had a bad temper. When Isat on its back, it became very angry and refused me. So everyone else thoughtit was very funny that my camel kept lying down…
Finally, later this evening, we're taking the plane back to Sydney andcoming home, it's been a fantastic trip!
