This is displayed in Dorothea’s Mackellar’s poem when she lists some of the things she loves about Australia when she expresses: “A land of sweeping plains‚ Of ragged mountain ranges‚ Of droughts and flooding rains.’’ Explorers and bushman might not like “ragged mountains” and farmers may need flooding rains to break droughts and also fill dams‚ but many other farmers may see things differently because they cannot bear to lose money from crops dying.

wonders what will life be like once graduating high school but almost everyone has an idea of where to. The ducks in the lagoon in Central Park make Holden question himself; where he will end up in life? It is obvious that all these symbols have to do something with Holden’s actions and way of thinking.
