Here’s a story about a very interesting family. A young man once went into town and bought himself a pair of trousers. When he got home, he went upstairs(樓上) to his bedroom and put them on. He found that they were about two inches too long.

He came downstairs, where his mother and his two sisters were washing up tea things in the kitchen. “These new trousers are too long.” He said. “ They need shortening (縮短)by about two inches. Would one of you mind doing this for me, please?” His mother and sisters were busy and they said nothing.

The koala is unique (獨(dú)特的) to Australia and is an important symbol of the country. The koala is found in open eucalypt (桉樹) 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 (有袋類). 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 (營養(yǎng)) 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 (呼嚕的) 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 (泛濫).

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

Attention, please！Sunshine Language Learning Centre will set a course and it will teach Pure（純正的） British English. Maybe you've known some British expressions are quite different from American ones. British people use "autumn “ for “fall” ,”film” for "movie". “holiday” for “vacation", “garden" for "yard". etc.

There are more typical（典型的）expressions that you may not know. Here are Mr Bean's examples.

Are you interested in it? Do you want to learn? You can learn British English well if you put much effort into it. We have some native British English teachers with much experience to help you.

“cheers” or “thanks”

British people use “Cheers” much more often than“Thanks”. “Cheers” is often used by them in daily informal conversations for small favours

, such as opening doors for others, lending somebody a pen, showing strangers ways,…
