　　(2014·岳阳市第一次高三模拟考试)Australia is a nation occupying the whole of the Australian continent; aboriginal tribes are thought to have migrated from southeastern Asia 20,000 years ago; first Europeans were British convicts sent there as a penal colony.

　　Australia, the last continent, was discovered by ships belonging to some European nations in the seventeenth century, these nations were less interested in changing it into a colony than in exploring it. As in the early history of the United States, it was the English who set up the settlements in Australia. This history and the geography of these two British colonies have some other things in common as well.

　　Australia and the United States are about the same in size and their western lands are both not rich in soil. It was the eastern coast of Australia and America that the English first settled, and both colonies soon began to develop to­

　　wards the west. However, this westward movement took place more because the English were searching for better land and because the population was increasing. Settlements of the western part of both countries developed quickly after gold was discovered in America in 1849 and in Australia two years later.
