Paul: No worries, it'll be good fun.
Duong: So, are you from around here?
Paul: Me? Yes, I was born and grew up here. Sydney's my hometown.
Duong: It's fabulous. Is it an ancient city?
Paul: No, it's not very old, but it's Australia's biggest city, and the history of our country began here.
Duong: Wow! So what are the greatest attractions in Sydney?
Paul: Well, its natural features include Sydney Harbour, the Royal National Park, and Bondi Beach. Man-made attractions such as the Royal Botanic Gardens, Sydney Opera House, and the Harbour Bridge are also well known to visitors.
Duong: What about transport?
Paul: Public transport here is convenient and reliable: you can go by bus, by train, or light rail. Taxis are more expensive, of course.
Duong: And is Sydney good for shopping?
Paul: Of course! You know, Sydney's a metropolitan and multicultural city, so we have a great variety of things and foods from different countries. I'll take you to Paddington Market later, if you like.
Duong: Wonderful. What about education? Are there many universities?
Paul: Sydney has five big universities and some smaller ones. The oldest of them was set up in 1850, I believe.

Other people like to wear nice clothes, but their clothes are not colorful or fancy. They do not like people to look at them. Clothes today are very different from the clothes of the 1800s. One difference is the way they look. For example, in the 1800s all women wore dresses. The dresses all had long skirts.
But today women do not always wear dresses with long skirts .Sometimes they wear short skirts. Sometimes they wear pants. Another difference between1800s and today is the cloth. In the 1800s, clothes were made only from natural kinds of cloth. They were made from cotton, wool, silk, or linen. But today, there are many kinds of man–made cloth. A lot of clothes are now made from nylon, rayon, or polyester.
