Musical Aussie accents and Aboriginal art exhibits made me wonder if I had entered without a visa. In fact I was a temporary employee，a public affairs unpaid intern(实习生)for three months during the summer in order to engage myself in the culture of the country where I planned to study the next spring.During the summer I read the Australian news every day. Working at the embassy allowed me to escape the US for six hours per day and learn about what was going on across the planet. After reading the daily Australian and US news I usually helped prepare a PowerPoint presentation for school kids who visited the embassy as part of a school activity. Depending on whether an embassy event was going on，I would attend weekly meetings to listen to planning and see what I could do to help. Usually there were smaller tasks to be done such as creating visitors guides.The most fantastic event in which I participated was the visit of the Australian Prime Minister. As the only American among countless Australian media and staff，I felt comfortable and was kept busy taking pictures and recording doorstop interviews at famous sites such as the Capitol. As an intern，you will not be exposed to topsecret information，but you are on the inside when it comes to special events.Government work is a useful addition to ones experience. As an embassy employee you will gain invaluable knowledge while spending your summer in a culturally diverse workplace.【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了作者为了要到澳大利亚学习提前在位于 华盛顿的澳大利亚驻美国大使馆实习的经历。 4What is the author talking about?AHer embassy internship.BHer trouble in finding a job.CHer foreign culture experience.DHer preparation for future employment.解析：A 主旨大意题。根据全文大意可知，作者主要讲述了她在位于华盛顿的澳大 利亚驻美国大使馆实习的经历。 5Why was the author in the Embassy of Australia for three months?ATo apply for a visa.BTo prepare to study in Australia.CTo record musical Aussie accents.DTo appreciate Aboriginal art exhibits.解析：B 细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句中的“. in order to engage myself in the c
