5、    Australia is   1   as large as the United States, but most of it is too dry for people to live in. Around the edge of this huge dry part are large sheep and cattle farms. A few of them are as large as the smallest states in America. Often the   2   neighbors are many hundred miles away.

    When these radios first came into use, the Australian government set up for them in some areas. At a certain time each day, the boys and girls turn   4   their radios and listen to teachers in cities miles away. Families on the large farms wanted to give news to their neighbors. "Round Robin(知更鸟) Talks" by radio were started to keep families in touch with each other. They could talk about who was going away or who was sick or who was getting married. The men could talk about their sheep and cattle and how much money the markets would pay   5   them. In many ways the radio became a newspaper for the farm people of Australia.
