First, let's lay out the options and the claim being tested. The question asks for the capital of Australia and provides four choices: Canberra, Melbourne, Perth, Brisbane.
Option 1: Canberra. This is the historically correct capital of Australia, officially the seat of government, and is commonly identified on maps. While Canberra is technically located in the Australian Capital Territory (ACT), near the border with New South Wales (NSW), it is the city designated as the capital; the note about being in the same state is a common confusion, but in general knowledge terms Canberra is the capital.
Option 2: Melbourne. Melbourne is a major city in Victoria and was the de facto capital of some periods in Australian history (and the capital before Canberra), but it is not the current capital. Therefore, this option is incorrect as the capital.
Option 3: Perth. Perth is the capital of Western Australia and is far from Sydney; it has no status as the national capital, so this choice is clearly incorrect for the question.
Option 4: Brisbane. Brisbane is the capital of Queensland and likewise is not the national capital; this makes it an incorrect answer to the prompt.
To clarify potential confusion: although Canberra is not located within the state of New South Wales, it is the capital of Australia and is situated adjacent to NSW, which aligns with common geography knowledge and map conventions used in quizzes. The statement about being in the “same state” is a misleading phrasing often used in tests, but the key fact remains that Canberra is the capital city.
In summary:
- Canberra correctly identifies the capital city of Australia.
- Melbourne is not the capital, though historically significant.
- Perth is unrelated to the capital status.
- Brisbane is also not the capital.
Thus, the best-supported answer among the options is Canberra.

Many people mistakenly think that Sydney is the capital of Australia, but in reality, it is ____________ located in the same state and not far from Sydney. (Note, capitals are almost always designated with a star symbol on most maps).单项选择题
