More than four million tourists from around the world visit Australia every year. Many of these visitors only stay for a few weeks in order to visit Sydney, Australia’s biggest city, and to enjoy some of Australia’s beautiful beaches. Some visitors, however, want to stay longer and experience the “real” Australia, so they decide to work on the Harvest Trail.
The Harvest Trail is a group of farms around Australia that need workers. Tourists from many countries, both men and women, can work as fruit pickers in order to pay for their trip. This work can take them to many parts of the country, from Tasmania in the south to Queensland in the north. The types of fruit that are usually picked include cherries, mangoes, and peaches. Although the work is often hard and is in the sun, it is a great way for visitors to see more of Australia, not just the big cities.
To join the Harvest Trail program, visitors need to be between 18 and 30 years old, and have a special working holiday visa. For your next trip to Australia, you can give this program a try. 【題組】Which of the following will people joining the Harvest Trail program not experience?
