阅读回答问题（2021秋·山东临沂·八年级统考期中）
When you walk into the small Australian town of Coober Pedy, you may be surprised by
what you can see. It’s just barren land there!
So why even call it a town? There are more than 4, 000 people of 48 nationalities. However,
all of the people live underground!
Coober Pedy was established in 1915, following the discovery of opals (猫眼石). The town is
sometimes called the “opal capital of the world,” because it is the largest opal mining area in theworld.
Because of the desert climate, people came to realize that while working under the ground
was easy, living above it was not. The solution was to move underground, by changing old mines
into homes and establishing the world’s first and most likely, only underground town.
As years have gone by, the homes have become bigger. There are now also some hotels for
tourists. They come from all over the world just to see this unusual town. Coober Pedy is probably
best known for its unique style of underground living.
While the structures may be located underground, they are in no way worse than those that lie
above. Not only do their walls have the color of beautiful red, but also the structures have all the
modern equipment like walk-in closets, modern kitchens and televisions. And the town also has
gift shops selling opal jewelry, a couple of museums and even a church.
Besides, Coober Pedy is also a favorite among filmmakers. And it has appeared in a series of
movies such as Pitch Black, Red Planet and Opal Dream.
