Try to work out the definitions of these words and write them down in the second column. Then check your answer using an English-English dictionary and write the dictionary definitions in the third column.The first migrants arrived in Australia
after a long voyage on small sailing ships.
Life was very tough at first because they
did not have adequate equipment or food.
One of the first things they did was to dig
the soil and sow vegetable seeds. However,
it wasn’t easy to grow enough food for
everyone and in the first few years they
faced starvation. Despite all the hardships of those early
years, many of the migrants succeeded in
building a good life for themselves. In the
early days, There were not nearly as
many women migrants as there were
males, so many of the men remained
bachelors. Many dreamed of having a
wife who would share their life and work alongside them as they built
houses and established farms. Within a
reasonably short time some had
established large sheep farms and began
to export meat and wool back to England.
We know a lot about these early years of
European settlement because most
Migrants corresponded with theirfamilies at home and many of their
letters still survive. These early
settlers owed their survival to hard
work and determination to succeed. a person who goes from one

underline all the predicative. A kangaroo kept getting out of his enclosure at the zoo. Knowing that he was a good jumper, the zoo authorities increased the height of the fence around him, but, the next morning, the kangaroo was out of his enclosure again. Revising useful structures So the keepers’ solution was to build an even higher barrier. However, the next morning, the result was disappointing--- the kangaroo was not in his enclosure. The authorities, being desperate, increased the height of the fence again and again and it was soon over forty meters high. A camel in the next enclosure asked the kangaroo, “How high do you think they’ll go?” The kangaroo said, “ That's a good question. It seems to me, they’ll just keep going higher until somebody remembers to shut the gate at night!”2 Underline the predicative in this
conversation and then practice it with
