Exercise nine.

Listen to what the conference participants say about their countries. Guess which country they are from.

Alison: My country is a country and a continent. It's the sixth largest country in the world. Because of its geographical position, our summer is from December to February, and our winter from June to August. My country is famous for its native animals: the kangaroo, the koala, the dingo, and the emu. The kangaroo and the emu can be regarded as the symbols of our country. The largest and the most beautiful cities of my country are Sydney, Melbourne, and its capital, Canberra.

Sam: My country is situated in North America. It stretches from the Atlantic Ocean in the east to the Pacific Ocean in the west. My country is large and famous. Who in the world has not heard of the Niagara Falls and the Mississippi, Yellowstone and Grand Canyon, Hollywood and Disneyland? The capital of my country is Washington.

Melissa: I'm from an island country in Western Europe. It is washed by the Atlantic Ocean in the north, by the Irish Sea in the east, by the North Sea in the west. It's twice smaller than France or Spain. But its capital is one of the world's biggest cities. Sometimes my country is called the UK for short. Most big towns and cities have either a university or a college. There are ninety-one universities in my country. The most famous and the oldest are Cambridge and Oxford. I'd like to study in one of them one day.
