16.A Koala Isn't a Bear
Koalas remind people of teddy bears.They have thick fur and large ears.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!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 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(桉樹) leaves they eat.That's 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.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 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.

58.According to the article,how are koalas and kangaroos alike?D
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.
59.The word"koala"comes from a word that meansA.
A.no drink  B.moving slowly  C.large ears  D.barking loudly
60.Why do koalas sleep a lot?C
A.Their babies need to get much rest.
B.They get tired from playing so much.
C.Their food does not give them much energy.
D.They do not like to be awake when it is warm.
61.If an adult koala screams like a baby,he may getB.
A.worried    B.scared    C.hungry    D.sleepy.

分析 本文介紹了澳大利亞特有的動物考拉的習(xí)性.

解答 DACB
58  D  細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)文章第一段中的"Koalas are marsupials.This means the mother carries her baby in a pocket while it develops,similar to a kangaroo."可知koalas和kangaroos的相似點(diǎn)在于它們攜帶幼崽的方式.故選D.
59   A  細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)文章第二段中的"The name‘koala'comes from a native Australian word the means‘no drink'."可知考拉來自于意為不喝水的單詞,故選A.
60   C  細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)文章第三段.They sleep so much because there isn't much nutrition in eucalyptus leaves.可知,koalas睡很多覺的原因在于它們所吃的食物不能給它們提供足夠的能量.故選C.
61   B  細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)最后一段中的"If they get scared they may scream like a baby."可知,當(dāng)它們害怕的時候,他們的叫聲像嬰兒.故選B.

點(diǎn)評 考察學(xué)生的細(xì)節(jié)理解和推理判斷能力,做細(xì)節(jié)理解題時一定要找到文章中的原句,和題干進(jìn)行比較,再做出正確的選擇.在做推理判斷題不要以個人的主觀想象代替文章的事實,要根據(jù)文章事實進(jìn)行合乎邏輯的推理判斷.

11.My daughter and myself were driving from Los Angeles to Dallas.We were running low on gas on our way to Roswell and figured we'd see a gas station soon enough to fill up.But that didn't happen and we realized we were not going to make it to the next town.So my daughter made up a sign that read"Low on gas.Can u help?"and held it outside her window hoping that a driver in the next lane (車道) would notice it and stop.
It was about 3:30pm and there weren't too many vehicles passing us.An SUV was driving along in the neighboring lane ahead of us.We caught up with it in the hope that the driver would notice the sign.An elderly gentleman was driving it and after a brief expression of confusion on his face,he seemed to have noticed the sign and slowed down to pull over.
He was friendly and was eager to help us.At first he thought we didn't have enough money to buy gas,so he offered to buy us gas at the next town Roswell that was about 10miles away!!When we explained our situation of not having enough gas to get to Roswell,he said he worked on a farm and was returning home from work.The farm was about 10minutes away and they had a gas pump there.So if we could give him twenty minutes,he would head back there,get gasoline and fill up our tank (油箱).
We could not believe our good fortune!We had just hoped that whoever stopped to help would be kind enough to call AAA when they got to Roswell as there was no cell phone for either of us.And we would just wait it out for them to come and help us.
We were grateful for the kindness of strangers such as this person as we waited for him to return.Sure enough,he was back and immediately filled our tank.He refused to take payment for the gas saying"what good is a man who cannot help another in need".Tears flowed,as did our gratitude.

32.What happened when we were halfway to Dallas?C
A.Our car broke down.
B.My wife made a call.
C.We were short of petrol.
D.We saw a gas station.

A.filled up our tank for free
B.was paid for the help
C.went to Roswell for the gas
D.felt moved as tears flowed.
34.Which of the following is true according to the passage?D
A.I made a sign in hope of finding help.
B.The stranger offered us gas in the gas station.
C.The stranger was on his way to work.
D.My daughter and I didn't take cell phones.
35.Which of the following can be the best title?B
A.Accident on the way
B.Touched by kindness
C.Help in time
D.Gratitude is necessary.
