AUSTRALIAN VALUES

DESCRIPTIVE ESSAY


People in Australia are very friendly, very nice people who are tolerant and respectful of another cultures and beliefs. It is very common for tourists to make new friends everyday, not only Australians, but people from all around the world. The reason for this is that there are a lot of immigrants in Australia, and the people who live there are in the majority immigrants or their descendants.

In the first place, migration in Australia has made it a multicultural country; religions in Australia are Buddhism, Hinduism, Islam, Judaism, and many more. In 1901, when the country was recognized as a federation, it claimed to be Christian, but now it declares itself as religiously diverse.

On the other hand, australians are very honest people, and they give a high value to honesty. They also appreciate hard work and think of it as a national feature. This has made of Australia a very prosperous country, and a place where it is safe to live. They consider themselves happy (95%). On all sides of politics they prefer freedom over equality. 98% of them are proud of being Australians. They are very moderate and tolerant.

Finally, australians consider family as the most important institution in the community, 84% of the people still consider marriage fundamental. Nevertheless, people are very liberal in Australia and reject extremist conservative, reactionary forms of government.

THE PEACE WALK

This is a descriptive paragraph about the peace walk against Las FARC.
It was realized during a class
Last fourth of February in Colombia a walk took place to protest against kidnapping and to demand that the guerrillas free the people they have kidnapped; people went out dressing white shirts and waving the Colombian flag, they screamed "No more kidnapping", "No more lies", "No more war", "No more FARC". It was a great event, and everybody agreed that it was good to protest against FARC. The only bad thing is that no matter how many people protest against war, it will always continue, because the ones who have the power to end this terrible war, don’t listen to the people. That is a bad thing. At least, Colombian people are starting to be less indifferent and are acting to manifest against kidnapping and war.
