When the Federal government of Australia was formed in 1901, no one knew where Australia’s capital would be. The two cities of Melbourne and Sydney both wanted the honor. Instead, the founding fathers chose for the new capital a site(地点) halfway between the two. The government would build a new city called Canberra as the country’s capital.

In 1911, the government invited the world’s leading architects(建筑师) to enter designs for Canberra in a contest(比赛). An American architect from Chicago named Walter Griffin won. The government decided to build Canberra according to his plan. Men started work on Canberra in 1913, but twenty-four years passed before the city was finished.

At one time, almost everyone in Canberra worked for the government. However, the city today has become a center of education and a favorite place for tourists(旅游者). Now people can hold a government job, or they can work in business. They can also earn a living by teaching or by meeting the needs of tourists.

Canberra is now Australia’s largest inland(内陆的) city. Many people living there have come from other cities in Australia and from other lands. They have come to Canberra to work. Some have come to escape the more hectic(狂热的) way of life found in many other cities.

B. He won in a design contest.

C. He was probably the designer of Washington D. C.
