Choose the best answer（根据短文内容，选择最恰当的答案） 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 .

Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words（在短文的空格内填入适当的词， 使内容通顺，每空格限填一词，首字母已给） Recently the unmanned aircraft which are called drones (无人驾驶飞机) have come into use for a number of business purposes. Basically, a drone is a flying robot. The aircraft (飞行器) may be remotely controlled or can fly a 1.________ through flight programs in their systems. The little planes used to be very costly. In the past, they were mostly used in the military (军事). But as they have d 2.________in price more people have begun to use them. Rescue workers and fanners are among the new users.
A company in France is using drones to help farmers examine their crops and limit the amount of fertilizer (肥料) they use. The fast development of computer technology, image sensing devices (图像感应设备), satellite navigation (卫星导航) and cell phones has led to lower-priced drones. Researchers and developers have learned how to build smaller and less-costly drones. Moviemakers are using drones to film from the sky. Historians (历史学家) use them when they explore a 3.________. buildings. Rescue workers use them to look for people. And now farmers are using them to m4.________their crops. Romain Faroux is a French businessman who starts companies. His father was a farmer. He believed drones could help fanners. He helped create a company that developed a small drone that could be controlled by people on the g5.________ . They called it “Agridrone (农业无人机).” It uses a special “optical sensor (光学感应器)” to examine crops. The technology used is similar to that used by smartphones except it has wings. A computer program directs the drone to fly over the crops. The sensor on the drone records four different-colored “bands” of sunlight (太阳光带) that are reflected off (反射) the crops. Jean-Baptiste Bruggeman is a farmer. He says the drone flies over his crops at different time of the season. He says this provides a lot of information about his crops. The drone pictures show him the exact amount of fertilizer the crops need. It also shows exactly where the fertilizer is needed. Romain Faroux says farmers use information g 6.________ by the Agridrone to place fertilizer only in areas where it was needed. This saves money and reduces pollution. Before they used the drones, farmers would put the same amount of fertilizer everywhere. Drones also save time because farmers can examine u 7.________ to three hectares (公顷) in about a minute.

Answer the questions（根据短文内容回答下列问题） The baby is taking photos with his parents, the Duke and Duchess (公爵和公爵夫人) of Cambridge. The pictures were taken by the duchess’ father, Michael Middleton, in the garden of their family home in Bucklebury, Berkshire. Taken earlier this month, they show the royal ,couple, Prince George and their black cocker spaniel (西班牙猎犬), Lupo. Tilly, a golden dog, belonging to the Middleton family, can be seen lying down behind them. The photographs of Prince George, who was born on 22 July, were published by Kensington Palace.
On Monday Prince William, giving his first interview since becoming a father, told CNN: “He either reminds me of my brother or me when I was younger, I’m not sure, but he*s doing very well at the moment.” BBC reporter Nicholas Witchell said the new family looks “unselfconscious (自然的), relaxed and happy - much like most couples might look with their first-born baby”. He added: “Of course they’re aware of what’s expected of them. There will be staff - a nanny (保姆) to help in due course (适时地), but for the moment it’s all rather informal and many might think, refreshing.” Famous photographer Terry O’Neill said he thought the pictures were “absolutely charming”. “It reminded me when I first started photography for myself - I just went for the light, and it was really interesting lighting (打灯光). As a matter of fact when I heard about these pictures, I thought ‘Who have they got to do these pictures’ - and the thought crossed my mind they might have asked the Queen because she’s quite a good photographer.”
The cultural and education manager of Magnum Photos, Fiona Rogers, told Radio 4’s Today program the photograph of the couple and Prince George with the family’s dogs was “technically not the most accomplished (技艺高超的) photograph”. “It’s a photograph that any one of us could have in our family albums,” she said. 1.Who is Tilly? 2.Where were the pictures taken? 3.When was Prince George born? 4.What did Terry O’Neill think of the pictures? 5.What did Fiona Rogers think of the picture? 6.What is this report mainly about?
