In fact, koalas arent cute. They have sharp teeth and very sharp claws! Koalas are marsupials. This means the mother carries her baby in a pocket while it develops, similar to a kangaroo. The baby koala lives in its mothers 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 (桉树) leaves they eat. Thats where they get their food too. Koalas eat only eucalyptus leaves, and only the leaves of certain eucalyptus trees. The eucalyptus trees are where the koalas live. Its also where they sleep. Koalas sleep about nineteen hours a day!Why do they sleep so much? Some people think its because theyre lazy. But koalas arent lazy. They sleep so much because there isnt much nutrition 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 sound. The mothers and babies talk in soft clicking sounds. If they get scared, they may scream like a baby.21. 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.22.

They get tired from playing so much.C. Their food does not give them much energy.D. They dont like to be awake when it is warm.24. If an adult koala screams like a baby, he may get .A. frightenedB. hungryC. worriedD. sleepyBTop attractionsAmsterdam is most famous for its artistic heritage. This tradition is proudly on display in the Rijksmuseum (translates as State Museum). Once youve taken in all that has to offer, artists, history fans, and families shouldnt pass up the chance to visit the Van Gogh Museum-containing around 700 paintings and drawings by Vincent and his contemporaries, including Gauguin, Monet, and Toulouse-Lautrec.Amsterdam is also home to the Anne Frank Museum, where Anne hid with her family during the Nazi occupation of the Netherlands. On a lighter note, taking a canal cruise through its extensive waterways is a rewarding way to see the Dutch capital.Art lovers get their kicks at:The Van Gogh MuseumRijksmuseumMuseum het RembrandthuisFood and drinkCheese lovers love Amsterdam. You can find an excuse to eat cheese at any time of the day here. Gouda is Hollands favorite, developing a more intense flavor the longer its aged. Find a selection at the markets, try a cheeseboard at dinner time, or just order cubes with mustard for dipping to accompany a drink.When youre hungry for non-cheese food groups, youll find Michelin-starred restaurants, vegetarian, and organic restaurants that accompany an array of global cuisine. For old-fashioned and modern Dutch food, try these Amsterdam restaurants: Moeders, Haesje Claes, Loetje, Greetje, and De Silveren Spiegel.Dont leave without tasting:Patat (hot chips with toppings) Stroopwafel (waffle cookie) Chocomel (chocolate milk)Amsterdam Fast FactsApproximate flight times:NYC/Newark 7 hours, 20 minutes Philadelphia 8 hoursBoston 7 hours Miami 9 hours, 45 minutes Los Angeles 10 hours, 15 minutesEntry requirements: Passport must be valid for at least 3 months beyond your planned departure from the Schengen area and have 2 blank pages for entry stamp.25.

People give their loved ones or friends friendship bracelets (手镯) and other gifts to celebrate their friendship. The culture of friendship bracelets is as old as even thousands of years.After the World War II, the paracord (伞绳) bracelets became very popular. These were also known as survival bracelets. One of the main reasons is that it was often used for a rescue purpose. Paracord, used in the parachute, does not wear away easily and is strong and durable. Because of its light weight, people could carry it along easily. If required, it could be made a very long rope and be used as a rescue rope. Hunters used it to find their way that they could return without getting lost.Today there are all kinds of paracord bracelets, made of coloured strings. Girls like thinner and colourful bracelets. Many choose to make the bracelets by themselves for their dear friends. This not only appeals more to the feelings of people but also makes them know how much their friends mean to them. People keep the bracelets given by their friends long. Many people choose coloured strings keeping the depth of their friendship in mind. White, yellow, orange and red show the different levels of friendship. Pure friendship is shown in white; the red colour means love. An orange friendship bracelet is given to show strong friendship and yellow as simple friendship. Today, not only do the young people show these friendship bracelets, but even the old do.Does friendship have an age? Yes. Friendship is like the wine, and the older you get, the older and stronger your friendship is.28. What was the main reason for paracord bracelets becoming popular?A. They could bring you good luck.B.

It is challenging. This is what drives young people to travel alone. It is seen as character building and a chance to prove that they can make it on their own.Chris Richardson decided to leave his sales job in Australia to go traveling last year. He set up a website, The Aussie Nomad, to document his adventures. He said he wished he had traveled alone earlier. “The people you meet, the places you visit, or the things you do, everything is up to you and it forces you to grow as a person,” said the 30-year-old.Richardson describes traveling alone like a shot in the arm”, which“makes you a more confident person that is ready to deal with anything.” He said, “The feeling of having conquered something on my own is a major part of what drives me each day when Im dealing with a difficult task. I walk around with my head up because I know deep down inside that nothing is impossible if you try.”The great 19th century explorer John Muir once said, “only by going alone in silence can one truly get into the heart of the wilderness.”32. Which of the following will Kristina Wegscheider agree with?A. Traveling abroad helps people to find new things.B. It is more meaningful to travel in foreign countries.C. It is comfortable to travel around without a friend.D. Traveling alone is a necessary experience for everyone.33. Why is traveling alone so challenging?A. You have to make tools on your own.B. It s hard for you to prove yourself to others.C. You can only depend on yourself whatever happens.D. It will finally build up your character.34. What can we infer about Chris Richardson?A. He started traveling at an early age.B. He was once shot in the arm.C. He used to work as a salesman.D. His website inspires others a lot.35. What is the best title of the passage?A. Travel AbroadB. Travel AloneC. Travel LightD. Travel Wide and Far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。 Ways to build strong friendshipsBe loyal to a friend.Part of being a friend is being prepared to devote your time and energy to helping out your friends.
