听力原文：Woman: Well, it seems quite common actually. Lots of people in Australia now are traveling and taking time off. And when I was actually traveling I met so many people doing the same thing.

Man: Yeah, Yeah, so where did you start off？

Woman: Well, I went to New Zealand first, urn, and got a job in a computer company as a secretary. And I worked there for four months.

Man: Really？ you can do that, can you？ I mean, it's possible for anyone to get a job in New Zealand without being a New Zealander？

Woman: No, not everybody, only Australians and New Zealanders can exchange either— you know you can work in either country.

Man: Right, yeah.

Woman: So that was easy. So I worked there for four months and raised enough money for the rest of the travels really. So from there I went to Indonesia and traveled around the different islands of Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, China, Nepal and India.

Man: What about in Indonesia, what did you do？ Did you fly mostly between the islands？

Woman: Er, I did a bit of that and boats, mainly local boats, between the islands.

Man: And what about, er, Singapore？ People say it, j,？ very, very modem but because it's so modem it's rather boring. Did you find that？

Woman: Um, well, it's difficult to say, really. It has different attractions; you know the Chinese, Malay and Hindu communities there. Each has its own culture and custom, very different from the others. And it's a great big shopping centre, and I really enjoyed it from that point of view. And, urn, it was very clean.

Man: And after, you said you went what, to Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, and then China7 That's a great country to travel in, isn't it？

Woman: Er, it was, yeah. And it was fabulous, it really was. You haven't been there then？

Man: No, I haven't, no. I mean, it's very big, isn't it— did you... ？

Woman: Yeah, well, I only had one month traveling in China and that was too short for such a vast country as China. I felt I didn't have enough time, so I sacrificed a lot of places and did the main tourist mutes really. I went to Beijing, the capital, Kaifeng, Yinchuan, and Tibet.

Man: Wow, how exciting] You said after Beijing you went to … ？

Woman: That was Kaifeng, in Central China's Henan Province. It's a charming city and has got a lot to look around, like temples and pagodas. Very traditional.

Man: Urn, urn.

Woman: What fascinated me when I was there was that some Jews went to live in Kaifeng many years ago. As early as the 16th century, there were Jewish families there. They had their synagogue and the five books of Moses. Even today several hundred descendants of the original Jews still live in Kaifeng.

Man: Really？ I've never heard of that! And, eh, where did you go after Kaifeng？

Woman: I went northwest to Yinchuan, the provincial city of Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region.

Man: Is this the place, eh, where there has always been a shortage of water？

Woman: No, no. On the contrary, it has got an abundant supply of water, because it is near the Yellow River. In this sense, Yinehuan has a favored geographical position in otherwise harsh surroundings.

Man: What did you see there, then？

Woman: Ningxia was once the capital of tile Western Xia during the l l th century, so outside Yinchuan you can still see the Western Xia Mausoleum, where the kings of that kingdom were buried. The tombs are scattered in a pretty big area at the foot of the Helan Mountain. And, inside the city, there is a famous mosque in the architectural style. of the Middle East.
