8 . Many centuries ago, all people had to gather seeds and plants to eat. They did not know how to farm or raise animals for food. We call them the Stone Age people because they used stone tools and weapons.
You may feel surprised in the world today there are still people who live like the Stone Age people. They live in the places that are hard to reach. Because they have met few people from the outside world, they don’t know about modern inventions. They have not learned ways of doing things from others.
For 25,000 years, groups of people have lived alone in the middle of Australia. One of these groups is the Arunta tribe (部落). They do not know how to farm and how to raise sheep or cattle.
The Aruntas spend most of their time searching for food and water. The men hunt animals with stone-tipped spears. The women and children look for roots, seeds and nuts. They use sticks to dig up the roots. Several Arunta families live together. They have no house. At night, they sleep around small fires.
Now other people are moving into the center of Australia. Soon the Aruntas will no longer be a Stone Age people.

9 . Portugal (葡萄牙) is one of Europe’s oldest nations. First time visitors are usually struck by the friendliness of the people, the affordable food and wine, and the diversity (多样性) of a country that is relatively easy to travel in, you can travel around Portugal in just a few days.
Portugal’s cities especially Lisbon and Porto show Portugal’s role as a superpower in the past that that ruled the sea from Brazil to East Asia, though it’s, not all about history: “the cities have some of Europe”, best clubs and modern buildings. Head inland and there are endless possibilities from touring the countryside to walking, cycling or rowing down inland rivers. It is the coast, however, that is the biggest attraction. From cliff backed coves (背靠悬崖的小海湾) to endless hills of sand, you are seldom far from beautiful beach. While its western Atlantic beach is still relatively unknown to those outside the surfing community, the calmer waters of the Algarve offer a relaxed beach experience.
One of the many advantages of Portugal is its year-round sunshine. Although the winter months can be a little cold, the sun is often shining and the skies are blue. The best time to travel to Portugal is during late spring (March to May) and early autumn (September to October) when the weather is warm. In the summer months, beaches are full of people, hotels are more expensive and the temperature can be unbearably hot.
Portugal’s relatively small size allows for much of the country to be seen within a short period of time while also allowing for it to be explored in depth over a longer period.
