Sydney, the largest city in Australia and the country’s cultural center, is well-known for its performing arts
center called the Sydney Opera House, one of the most famous modern buildings in the world. It was designed
by Jorn Utzon, a Danish architect.
The construction began in 1956 and was completed in 1973 after many years of controversy ( cuộc tranh
luận ) and argument. It is located in Sydney Harbour and not very far from the famous Sydney Harbour Bridge.
It has an eye-catching and distinctive shape. The whole house looks like a giant ship in full sail heading for the
open sea.
It is now known as a masterpiece ( kiệt tác) of modern architecture. World- class performances are regularly
given in the Opera House by Australian artists.

[B ] : Read about Antarctica.
Antarctica is the most southern continent in the world. It is like nowhere else on earth. It is much larger
than Europe, and nearly twice the size of Australia. It is an icy plateau with the South Pole at its center
.Antarctica is the coldest and windiest place in the world, even colder and windier than the North Pole. In the
summer, the sun shines for twenty-four hours a day, but in the winter it’s completely dark for about three
months. Very few plants grow here, but there is some wildlife, including whale, seals and penguins.
When Captain James Cook sailed around the continent in the 1770s, he
found no one living there. Today, a few scientists work in Antarctica,
but they only spend fairly short periods there. Many scientists in
Antarctica are studying the ozone layer. The ozone layer is getting
thinner and thinner worldwide. The biggest “ hole” is over Antarctica,
where the weather is getting warmer. Scientists think that this cold and
lonely place can teach us about the earth and how to keep it safe.
