Section IV: Reading Comprehension:
When the government of Australia was formed in 1901, no one knew where Australia’s capital would be. The two cities of Melbourne and Sydney both wanted to become the capital. Instead, the founding fathers chose for the new capital a place halfway between the two. The government would build a new city called Canberra as the country’s capital.
In 1911, the government invited the world’s leading architects to enter designs for Canberra in a contest. An American architect from Chicago named Walter Griffin won. The government decided to build Canberra according to his plan. Men started work on Canberra in 1913, but twenty-four years passed before the city was finished.
At one time, almost everyone in Canberra worked for the government. However, the city today has become a center of education and a favourite place for tourists. Now people can hold a government job or they can work in business. They can also earn a living by teaching or by meeting the needs of tourists.
People find the life in Canberra very relaxing and pleasant. The city is surrounded by beautiful mountains where people can ski. There is a large constructed lake lined with beaches and parks in the center of Canberra.
Canberra has a population of about 280,000 and is now Australia’s largest inland city. Many people living there have come from other cities and countries. Some have come to escape the busier way of life in many other cities. These people have found that the city plan that Walter Griffin created in 1911 still works very well today.
