[00:07.69]Exercise 3 Listen to six people talking.
[00:12.17]Try to identify their accents.
[00:15.03]I come from "Down Under"
[00:16.14]and my country's a very different kind
[00:18.31]of place from what a lot of people think.
[00:21.06]I mean, British people immediately think
[00:23.43]of the outback and kangaroos.
[00:25.90]I come from up North and It's semi-tropical
[00:30.03]we've even got tropical rainforests.
[00:33.04]I live in the third largest country
[00:34.87]in the world with a population
[00:36.45]of about 1.26 billion.
[00:38.90]I'm very lucky to live in the capital city
[00:41.14]the political, economic and cultural center
[00:43.52]of the country.Foreign visitors who stay here
[00:46.49]can visit some amazing places
[00:48.95]including The Forbidden City,
[00:50.82]the Temple of Heaven
[00:51.93]and of course,the Great Wall.
[00:54.84]I've been over to Britain a few times
[00:57.04]and nobody has trouble understanding me.
[00:59.42]But what's amazing is the number of different
[01:01.58]accents in such a small country as Britain.
[01:04.35]My country, as you know,is really big,
[01:07.16]but there are only really three
[01:08.70]or four different accents.
