Australia is the greatest island in the world. It is to the south of the equator. So when it is summer in our country, it is cold winter in Australia.
Australia is big, but the population there is thin. The population is the same as that of Shanghai, a city of China. Australia is a young, diverse nation and the Australian people come from many different countries.
Australia has many, many sheep. After a short drive from town, you will see sheep around you. You can also find a kangaroo which has a “bag” below its chest. The mother kangaroo keeps its babies in the “bag”.
Australia is considered to be a relaxed, informal society. When greeting others, students and young people usually say “Hello” or “Hi”. Sometimes they say “How’s it going?” or “G day”. In more formal (正式的) situations they usually shake hands the first time they meet. “Good morning”, “Good afternoon” or “Pleased to meet you” are formal greetings. English is Australia’s national language.

Many people thought that the USA former president Calvin Coolidge always lived in the White House. However, he sometimes lived in the nearby Willard Hotel.
Once, in the middle of a night, the president woke up to see a thief searching his clothes. Coolidge calmly spoke up from the darkness, "I wish you wouldn't take that watch."
"Why?" asked the shocked man.
Coolidge answered, "Take it near the window and read what is engraved(雕刻) on the back of it."
The man read, "Presented to Calvin Coolidge, Speaker of the House, by the Massachusetts General Court." He was very surprised!
"Are you President Coolidge?" he asked. He had never thought he would find the president sleeping in a hotel!
"Yes, I am," Coolidge said. Then he asked, "Why are you doing this?"
The young man explained that he and two friends travelled to Washington D.C. during their college vacation. They spent all of their money and had no money to pay the hotel bill and buy the train tickets back to school.
Coolidge added up the cost. It came to $ 32. That may not sound like much now, but it was a big number then. "I'll give you the $ 32 as a loan(借款) ," the president said, "and I expect you to pay me hack."
The young man thanked him. Coolidge left him with this warning: "You are a nice boy. You are better than you are acting. You are starting down the wrong road. Just remember who you are."
It wasn't until after the death of Mr Coolidge that this story was allowed to come out. It was first published in the newspaper Los Angeles Times. And the most interesting of all is that the president's notes show that the young man was indeed better than he was acting. He repaid the $ 32 loan in full.

2.How did the young man travel to Washington D.C.with his friends?
A. By air. B. By bus. C. By train. D. On foot.
3.What can we infer from the passage?
A. The young man's family was always poor.
B. The hotel cost was rather cheap at that time.
C. The young man never got in touch with the president again.
D. The young man learned a lesson from his experience with the president.
4.How did people first get to know the story?

The whole class went to the zoo for a field trip. The next day, the teacher asked the children to write a report（报告）about what they learned. Read the two reports below.
The first report is from Ryan.
I learned about the giant tortoise（龟）. It was so big that the guide let us sit on its back. Some tortoises live to be over 100 years old! That’s older than my grandpa!
The slowest-moving mammal is the three-toed sloth（树懒）. It hangs from the trees and eats fruit. Some sloths sleep more than 20 hours a day. What a lazy animal!
I thought the albino alligator（钝吻鳄）was really cool. It wasn’t green. It was completely white all over. It was born that way.
The second report is from Jessica.
The tallest animal on earth is the giraffe. It eats leaves from the tops of the trees. Giraffes come from Africa.
I learned about an albino alligator. It was white instead of green. The guide told us that it was born without the coloring of other alligators.
I saw an owl（猫头鹰）sleeping in a tree. Owls sleep in the daytime and hunt at night. When they sleep, they don’t fall out of the tree because they have sharp claws（爪子）that lock onto the branch.
