After giving birth, a female koala carries her baby in her bag for about six months. When the baby koala comes out, it rides on its mothers back or hangs onto her belly, staying together with her everywhere until it is about a year old.Koalas live in eastern Australia,where the eucalyptus (桉树) they love are most plentiful. In fact, they rarely leave these trees, and their sharp claws and toes easily keep them higher up in the trees. During the day they seldom move. Usually they put themselves into forks or hide in the trees, sleeping for up to 18 hours.When not asleep a koala feeds on eucalyptus leaves,especially at night. Koalas do not drink much water and they get most of their water from these leaves. Each animal eats a large amount for its sizeabout two and a half pounds of leaves a day. Koalas even store snacks of leaves in bags in their cheeks.A special digestive systema long gut(肠)allows koalas to break down the tough eucalyptus leaves and remain unharmed by their poison. Koalas eat so many of these leaves that they take on a strange smell from their oil, similar to that of cough drops.Koalas were widely hunted during the 1920s and 1930s, and their populations dropped sharply. Helped by the reintroduction, they have reappeared over much of their former home, but their populations are still smaller. Koalas need a lot of space, about a hundred trees per animala pressing problem as Australias woodlands continue to decrease.21. We know from the second paragraph that koalas .

A. Uninterested. B. Worried. C. Humorous. D. Thankful.B When you use any of the university libraries there are a number of different learning spaces available so you can decide what is best for your purpose.

Nowadays, around 65% of the worlds population drive on the right of the road, while the rest are used to driving on the left. Though no one knows the exact reasons, it seems likely that people in ancient times travelled on the left. Roman coins show pictures of horsemen passing on each others right. And right-hand people generally got on a horse from the animals left. Obviously, its safer to do this at the left side of the road, and it makes sense for the horse to be ridden on the left. A change happened in the late 1700s. When Napoleon conquered (攻占) nations, he forced them to travel on the right side of the road, which spread left-hand driving throughout Europe. However, Britain still stuck with the right-hand driving rule and countries which were part of the British Empire (帝国) were made to follow. This is why India, Australia and the former British colonies (殖民地) in Africa continue to drive on the left. One exception is Egypt, as that country was defeated by Napoleon before becoming part of the British Empire. Some countries changed sides over time. Sweden only moved to driving on the right in 1967 and Iceland changed the following year. Ghana changed sides in 1974. On September 7, 2009, Samoa became the third country ever to change from left-hand to right-hand driving for the reason that it made it easier to import cheap cars from right-hand driving Japan, Australia and New Zealand. So if you want to travel to another country or go on business, make sure you know whether it is left-hand or right-hand driving to avoid unnecessary troubles.28. Which picture shows the correct driving in Britain?29. In ancient times, Romans _. A. rode past each others right B. travelled on the right C. got on the horses from the right D. behaved as they liked30. In modern times, countries follow the same driving way except _.A. Egypt B. Australia C. Sweden D. China31. The passage tells about . A. the differences of the two ways of driving B. the advantages of the two ways of driving C. the change of the two ways of driving D. the development of the two ways of drivingDBlack Friday is the Friday following Thanksgiving Day in the UnitedStates. It has been regarded as the beginning of the holiday shopping season. Although its not an official holiday, millions of employers give their employees the day off, and many people use that day to get a jump-start on their holiday shopping. A similar day in Canada and Great Britain is called “Boxing Day”. Black Friday has become somewhat of a marketing sensation in recent years. Since 2005, it has been the busiest shopping day of the year. To lure shoppers, retailers (零售商) routinely open their doors as early as 4 a.m. and offer special sales and promotions to the shoppers that arrive early. Some of the special deals offered by stores are only available in limited quantities. That is why some shoppers anxious to get the best deals often camp out in front of stores overnight so that theyll be the first in line when the doors open. But why Black Friday? Historians believe the name started in Philadelphia in the mid-1960s. Bus drivers and police used “Black Friday” to describe heavy traffic that would block city streets the day after Thanksgiving as shoppers headed to the stores. Businesses, however, didnt like the negative tone associated with the “Black Friday” name. In the early 1980s, a more positive explanation of the name began to circulate. According to this alternative explanation, Black Friday is the day when retailers finally begin to turn a profit for the year. In accounting terms, operating at a loss is called being “in the red” because accountants traditionally used red ink to show negative amounts. Positive amounts were usually shown in black ink. Thus, being “in the black” is a good thing because it means stores are operating at a profit. Recently, for those who are too busy to shop on Black Friday or who just dont want to fight the crowds, the Monday following Black Friday has become known as Cyber Monday for the many online deals that shoppers can take advantage of from the comfort of their homes.32. The underlined word “lure” in Paragraph 2 probably means _. A. attract B. protect C. persuade D. remind33. What is the writers purpose for writing this passage? A. To state the development of Cyber Monday. B. To introduce Black Friday to the readers. C. To tell the difference between red and black. D. To explain the meaning of Boxing Day.34. Black Friday originally referred to . A. financial loss B. a busy shopping day C. sad feelings and moments C. heavy traffic and crowds35. We can infer that if retailers are “in the black” on Black Friday, they are . A. growing weak B. losing money C. gaining money D. promoting goods第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Heres something to think about the next time you ask your teacher for help: struggling with schoolwork on your own can help you learn. According to a recent study, the more you struggle while you are learning new information, the better you can remember it later.This theory might surprise you. When teachers are presenting new information, they often give students lots of help. 36 “Dont be too quick to get help when learning something new,” education expert Manu Kapur told TFK. “Try to work on it yourself even if it means trying different ways.”Kapur came up with the idea that struggling can lead to better learning. 37 He divided students into two groups. In the first group, students were asked to solve math problems with the teachers help. In the second group, students were asked to solve the same problems by helping one another, instead of getting help from the teacher. 38 Students in the second group did not solve the problems correctly. But they did come up with a lot of good ideas. The students were then tested on what they had learned. 39 Kapur said working to find the answers helped students understand the process, not just the solution.Kapurs advice for kids is to put a lot of effort into learning something new rather than going to your teacher for help. “Simply doing a little work or nothing at all wont work,” says Kapur. A. “The struggle needs to be a genuine attempt to figure out or solve a problem in as many ways as possible.”B. When you have doubt on schoolwork, youd better ask your classmates to help you.C. Then he tested it out on students in Singapore.D. Students in the first group are cleverer than those in the second group.E.The group without any help from a teacher scored much higher than the group who had help.F. But a new study shows this may not be the best way to support learning.G.With the teachers help, students in the first group were able to find the correct answers. 第三部分 语言知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 In 1994 I was in the midst of a depression (抑郁症).
