The koala is unique (独特的) to Australia and is an important symbol of the country. The koala is found in open eucalypt (桉树) forests in south-east Queensland. Even if it is called koala bear, this animal has nothing to do with the actual bear. Koalas have thick fur and large cars.

Their broad, flat nose makes them look cute, similar to teddy bears. In fact koalas aren’t cute. They have sharp teeth and very sharp claws (爪)! Koalas are marsupials (有袋类). This means the mother carries her baby in a pocket while it develops, similar to a kangaroo. The baby koala lives in its mother’s pocket for the first six months of its life.

The name “koala” comes from a native Australian word that means “no drink”. The koalas get almost all their water from the eucalyptus leaves they eat. That’s where they get their food too.

Koalas eat only eucalyptus leaves. The eucalyptus trees are where the koalas live, it’s also where they sleep. Koalas sleep about nineteen hours a day!

Why do they sleep so much? Some people think it’s because they’re lazy. But koalas aren’t lazy. They sleep so much because there isn’t much nutrition (营养) in eucalyptus leaves. Koalas store hardly any fat, so they must save their energy. One way to do this is to move slowly and sleep a lot. After a day of sleeping they like to move around and eat just after sunset. They live alone most of the time. Koalas are very protective of their trees. If a koala sees another koala eating in its favorite tree, it might tell the other koala to leave by “barking” at it. Koalas do “talk” to each other.

Besides barks, the males make a deep grunting (呼噜的) sound.

The mothers and babies talk in soft clicking sounds. If they get scared they may scream like a baby. The koala is also an excellent swimmer.

They are able to cross rivers to escape from heavy flooding (泛滥).

1. Koalas mainly live in　　 .

A、 Singapore　 B、 India　 C、 Australia　 D、 New Zealand

2.According to the article, how are koalas and kangaroos alike?

A、 They both have thick fur.

B、 They both have sharp teeth.

C、 They both eat eucalyptus leaves.

D、 They both carry their young in a pocket.

3. The word “koala” comes from a word that means 　　 .

A、 no drink 　 B、 moving slowly

C、 large ears　 D、 barking loudly

4. Why do koalas spend most of their time sleeping?

A、 To escape from natural enemies.

B、 They get tired from playing so much.

C、 Their food does not give them much energy.

D、 To protect themselves from the sun.

5.If an adult koala screams like a baby, it may get .

A、 worried　 B、 frightened　 C、 hungry　 D、 sleepy

6.The koala can 　　 .

A、 run very fast　　 　　　 B、 jump very high

C、 wake most of the time　 D、 swim very well

“Mother, may I go down to the river? It has stopped raining now!”

“Very well, Tom,” replied his mother, “only, be careful, and don’t stay away long!”

So, Tom ran off down the field to the river which flowed past his father’s farm in far north Queensland in Australia. It had been raining for ten days. Sometimes the rain fell fast and hard, then light showers would follow. The ground was all wet.

“All hot countries, such as where we live,” Tom’s father had once told him, “may flood at times. The sun has great power in the tropics to draw up the water from the sea. You know how the vapour rises into the air. The higher the temperature of the air, the greater the amount of moisture(水分) the air can hold. When the air cools, the vapour becomes clouds, or if it is near the earth’s surface, as mist(薄雾). When the air cools gradually(逐渐地), the rain drops are small and the rain is light. However, when the vapour drops suddenly in temperature, the drops are large and the rain is heavy.”

“In some tropical countries, where the sun is always at work on large bodies of water, a very large amount of vapour collects in the air, and it may take days, or even weeks, to form rain drops and fall. It may then rain for days continually. When this happens, after two or three days, the water falls does not have the time to soak(浸泡) through the soil or be carried off in the streams; so it gathers on the surface, and then we have a flood.”

When Tom got to the river, where the crossing was, he found the water rising rapidly. He thought about what his father had taught him about the floods, and decided to go back home at once and tell him the news.

1.What did Tom’s father probably do?

A. A geography teacher. B. A scientist.

C. A farmer. D. A doctor.

2.How long had Tom probably stayed at home?

A. Ten days. B. Two days. C. Three days. D. Several weeks.

3.The air can hold a lot of moisture when ________.

A. the air cools down suddenly B. the air cools down gradually

C. the temperature is high D. the temperature is low

4.Which order is RIGHT according to the passage?

(1) The water from the sea rises into the air and became vapour.

(2) When the air cools down, it begins to rain.

(3) The vapour became clouds or mist.

(4) Too much water gathers on the surface and becomes flood.

A. (1)(2)(3)(4) B. (2)(1)(3)(4) C. (4)(1)(3)(2) D. (1)(3)(2)(4)

5.What was the “news” in the last sentence?

A. Maybe a terrible flood was coming soon.

B. They could start to work on the farm immediately.

C. The rain had caused a great loss to their farm.

D. He had learned how the flood came into being.

6.Tom was a ________ boy according to the passage.

A. hardworking B. generous C. lazy D. clever

Renminbi is on the rise

Ye Li plans to study abroad after she finishes high school in summer. It will cost her parents a large sum of money. But as the value of the Chinese yuan has been rising in the last few months, the girl is happy to find she will need much less money.

One US dollar used to buy 8. 28 yuan Renminbi（RMB） in 2004. But by last Tues day the number had fallen to 6. 77. That means Ye’s tuition fee（学费）at $20,000 will cost her 30200 yuan less.

What are exchange rates?

The amount of RMB that one dollar can buy is called the exchange rate（汇率）between the RMB and US dollar. There are exchange rates between most countries. They show the rate at which one currency（货币）can be exchanged for another. The rates are decided by the different prices of the same product in countries. These change every day. Currency will become more expensive when demand（需求） for it is greater. As more and more countries have begun to trade（做贸易） with China in recent years, the RMB is in great demand, which has made its value go up.

The other side of the coin

A more expensive RMB is good for people like Ye. Chinese people can get more foreign currencies while exchanging with their money. They can buy more imported food, clothes, and cars. It also makes it cheaper to travel abroad.

But it is not good for Chinese exporters（出口商） like clothing sellers. A $1 export will bring in less yuan.

What’s more, Chinese clothing sells well abroad because of its low prices. Now a made-in-China T-shirt will cost foreigners more. There may be fewer foreigners who will buy Chinese products.

1.According to the story, Ye Li’s tuition fee is __________ now.

A.165,600 yuan B.135,400 yuan C.20,000 yuan D.11, 800 yuan

2.The value of currency

A.never changes with time B.rises when more of it is demanded

C.falls when it’s in greater demand D.depends on how many people using it

3.“The other side of a coin” here means __________.

A.it’s easy to turn a coin the other way up B.Chinese people are richer now

C.the rise of RMB has a harmful- as well as a positive side. D.China is exporting more clothes

4.A more expensive RMB has brought many benefits（好处）except __________.

A.Chinese can buy more imported food, clothes and cars.

B.it will do good to our exporters.

C.Chinese can spend less money traveling abroad than before

D.Chinese people are richer exchanging their money for foreign currencies

5.Which of the following is true?

A.The amount of RMB that one dollar can buy is called the exchange rate

B.Chinese clothing sells well abroad because of its high, quality

C.A currency will become more expensive when it is in great demand

D.The more expensive RMB is, the better, our life will be

6.The story mainly tells us __________.

A.the RMB has become more expensive B.it’s cheaper to travel abroad.

C.the RMB is in great demand D.foreigners won’t buy Chinese clothes

Unless we spend money to spot（认出，发现） and prevent asteroids（小行星）now, one might crash into Earth and destroy life as we know it, say some scientists.

Asteroids are bigger versions of the meteoroids（流星体） that race across the night sky. Most orbit the sun far from Earth and don’t threaten us. But there are also thousands of asteroids whose orbits put them on a collision course with Earth.

Buy $500 million worth of new telescopes right now, they spend $10 million a year for the next 25 years to locate most of the space rocks. By the time we spot a fatal one, the scientists say, we’ll have a way to change its course.

Is it worth it？ Two things experts consider when judging any risk are: （1） How likely the event is; （2） How bad the consequences if the event occurs. Experts think an asteroid big enough to destroy lots of life might strike Earth once every 500,000 years. Sounds pretty rare but if one did fall. It would be the end of the world. “If we don’t take care of these big asteroids, they’ll take care of us,” says one scientist. “It’s that simple. ”

The cure, though, might be worse than the disease. Do we really want fleets（队，车队） of nuclear weapons sitting around on Earth？ “The world has less fear from doomsday rocks than from a great nuclear fleet set against them.” said a New York Times article.

1.What does the passage say about asteroids and meteoroids？

A.They are heavenly bodies different in composition. B.They are heavenly bodies similar in nature.

C.There are more asteroids than meteoroids. D.Asteroids are more mysterious than meteoroids.

2.What do scientists say about the collision, of an asteroid with Earth？

A.It is very unlikely but the danger exists.

B.Such a collision might occur once every 25 years.

C.Collisions of smaller asteroids with Earth occur more often than expected.

D.It’s still too early to say whether such a collision might occur.

3.What do people think of the suggestion of using nuclear weapons to alter the course of asteroids？

A.It sounds practical but it may not solve the problem.

B.It may create more problems than it might solve.

C.It is a waste of money because a collision of asteroids with Earth is very unlikely.

D.Further research should be done before it is proved applicable.

4.We can conclude from the passage that

A.while pushing asteroids off course nuclear weapons would destroy the world.

B.asteroids racing across the night sky are likely to hit Earth in the near future.

C.the worry about asteroids can be left to future generations since it is unlikely to happen in our lifetime.

D.workable solutions still have to be found to prevent a collision of asteroids with Earth.

5.Which of the following best describes the author’s tone in this passage？

A.Optimistic. B.Critical. C.Objective. D.Arbitrary（武断的）

6.The best title for the passage is __________.

A.How will the world end？ B.Asteroids and meteoroids in the sky.

C.Nuclear weapons on Earth. D.What if asteroids crash into Earth？
