Solution 1
In Australian citizenship practice test, 20 questions are provided. In this test, it is a
mandate to make at least 15 questions correct that means 75% correct answers to pass. I have not
passed this examination, because I was not aware of the question pattern which is available in the
book "Australian citizenship: Our common bond." I have not answered correctly some basic
questions which are mainly from the Australian government, their legal rules, recommendations
and others (McShane, 2018).
Solution 2
Pauline Hanson’s speech is very inspiring as Pauline is a great Australian politician.
Her speech as the founder leader of Pauline Hanson's One Nation Party (PHON) and Senator of
the Australian parliament, Queensland is very inspiring. Her speech about stopping mass
migration into Australia is just mind-blowing. It will help the Australian government to control
the population size. In this speech, she has included the Call of 1994, where it is observed that
the large population of Australia is occurred due to mass migration. It creates an enormous
problem in the Australian economy by reducing Governmental economy and employment
problems. I agree with the views of Paul Hanson because a large number of people is present in
Australia whereas natural or human resource is minimal here. As a result, it creates a great
nuisance in Australia. As a result, the Australian government cannot afford proper education and
employment to the youth generation also (Kornetova, 2018).
Solution 3:
In 2018, 13th February, Prime Minister, Kevin Rudd, has apologized in Canberra for the
stolen generation. It is very crucial that here this Prime minister begged a sorry towards the
citizen because in this place he had found back his ten year lost culture, family life, and others
and the entire thing had happened due to misconduct of activities of Australian Government.
However, here Hamm, another speaker of this platform had emphasized over the aboriginal
people also. This sorry from the end of Rudd was not only a sorry but also the invitation to a
debate. In the entire emigration procedure, the government has not made misconduct with stolen

generations where the most prominent victims are the aboriginal peoples of Australia. This
apology becomes more prominent when, social justice commissioner of Aboriginal and Torres
Strait Islander, Tom Calma has indicated this as the unfinished business. In this aspect, I think
that Kipling had told a sorry and apologized as the representatives of Australian Government
because, he had realized the wrong thing from the end of Australian Government and it will be
helpful for the Australian citizen and aboriginals as after realization Australian Government will
definitely take some steps for their better future (Abetti, 2018).
I think that this apologizing sorry will open a new horizon to the citizens and aboriginals of
Australia and Australian Government will take some steps for their welfare.
Solution 4:
We need to belong because of enormous causes whereas the leading cause is to survive as
the social animal. Overall, we all are human beings. This needs to belong to make us protected
from all kinds of physical illness, mental stresses along with other issues. There will always be a
confliction occurred when these needs are not fulfilled. Needs to belong is also due to making
relationships with other peoples.
On the other hand, we human beings have a great need to be always connected with our
peers or other human beings. Need to belong is a universal instinct of human beings. In this
aspect, being valued and cared for by other human beings is another aspect of needing to belong.
According to me, needs to belong is a universal instinct which has to strengthen the fundamental
value of people and provides us social protection from all kinds of anxieties, stress and other
mental problems (Tao, 2017).
Solution 5
In this aspect, the question is arisen due to aboriginal peoples of Australia and to save
them from all kinds of discriminations. It helps them to be inspired for their employment,
activities along with other good things (Witcomb, 2018).
Solution 6:
After the clearance of independence of Australia, Government of Edmund Barton had
passed the immigration-related bill Immigration restriction Act 1901. Second Australian Prime

Header: Immigration excursion 5
minister Alfred Deakin drafted it. Passage of this bills of Australian Government is called White
bill policy. This policy is an interesting one to me because it comprises enormous historical
policies which are energetically important for peoples which are descendent of non-European
culture due to the colonization of European settlers. This policy has just saved peoples who are
immigrant of Australia (Voss & Hampe, 2017).
White Australian Policy was legally abolished in 1973. In this period, the labor
government Whitlam had implemented enormous policies for the aboriginal peoples and to
protect them from all kinds of racial aspects. White Australian Policy was abolished because
there were many legal implementations to prevent the enforcement of Aboriginal related racial
aspects (Ralli et al., 2018).
Solution 7:
Before going to the immigration museum, I have not experienced such a condition priory.
First of all, it has provided a tremendous historical feeling in me. After that, the historical voice
of Rudd to beg sorry from Australian Government has touched my heart. It was not just a
declearance, but it was a thorough announcement towards al the aboriginals and other indigenous
Australians.
On the other hand, the clearance of Hanson was a very crucial one. In these activities,
there was a great touch of humanities also. In one word, this excursion has created significant
value in me about the historical past of Australia. Proper observation has helped me a lot to learn
about the political basis of these speeches.
On the other hand, it has helped me a lot to learn about the cruel uprooting of Aboriginal
peoples. In this aspect, it is very crucial for us, young generations to make a thorough historical
culture to move against racial discriminations. In this earth, we all need to belong in society. As
human beings can not live alone, so it is crucial to provide equal opportunities to all social strata
of people accurately (Smith, 2017).
