Anne woke up at 6:00 a.m. this morning because it was the first day of school. She went into the bathroom, looked in the mirror and started to scream. Her little sister woke up and went to see what was wrong. Anne started to cry, “It’s the first day of school and my hair is a mess!”
Her little sister Emily shook her head, “Oh!Anne you woke me up for that. I’m going back to bed.”
“THANKS FOR THE HELP...NOT!” Anne screamed to her sister. She was really sad about her hair. She started to search through everything trying to find something to fix her hair. Finally she found some hairspray. It helped a little but not much so she went to pick out her clothes. She had no idea what to wear. It was either her new dress with little pink bows all over it or her favorite white but now brown T-shirt and ripped jeans since they were in style. She put on her T-shirt and jeans.
After she was finally done with that, she went to the kitchen to find something to eat. After eating, she went back into the bathroom. Afraid to look in the mirror, she started to brush her teeth. She turned on her radio and started to dance. Forgetting about the slippery(滑的) floor, she slipped and hurt her head but trying to be brave, she got back up and continued to brush her teeth.
She rinsed out her mouth and went back in the living room. She glanced at the clock. It was 7:00. She hurried to get on the bus. She waited and waited, but the bus never came. So she went inside to see what time it was. It was 8:00.
She got scared. She was running through the house screaming, “Mom! Mom! The bus forgot me!”
Her mom woke up and sat up. She started to laugh. “School doesn’t start till tomorrow silly,” her mom chuckled.

Teenage life is quite dramatic but that doesn’t mean you cannot enjoy your life in these years. Even with your daily troubles, your life is not very hard if you know how to deal with them.
I know exactly how you feel. Teenage life can be hard. You are not a kid anymore, because you are smart enough to consider your surroundings. However, you are still not an adult because there are still lots of experiences that you need to have and lessons that you need to learn from these experiences. Above all, the hormonal (荷尔蒙的) imbalance in your body can really mess you up. I have been there. I was in it for six years exploring what life is about!
As a teenager, I had a major problem completing my routine tasks on time. And at that time, all that I needed to do was to finish my homework, study for the upcoming tests and clean my room. Now, I have much more things to do: cooking, cleaning and working while keeping a balance between all my relationships related to work, family and friends. That really is a lot of work. So, I will just give you one golden tip, “Never leave that till tomorrow which you can do today.”
Life becomes much easier now because I finish all my work on time and I have enough time to let my hair down. Half the problems of a teenager appear because we hate doing things. We’d rather go and have fun than sit down and take on our responsibilities. That is why you have so much trouble in your life; your parents won’t let you go out with friends because you haven’t cleaned your room or your teacher is always criticizing you because you haven’t finished your homework.

Small endangered animals are often hard to find in their natural habitats (栖息地), making it difficult for scientists to spot them and develop conservation plans. But new technologies can help. Australian researchers have equipped flying drones (遥控飞机) with cameras so they can spot koalas hiding high in trees.
Koalas spend most of their lives in eucalyptus trees (桉树), whose leaves are their favorite food. Since the leaves are low in calories and nutritional content, koalas are not very active — they sleep up to 20 hours a day. Living in high branches, they are not easy to spot from the ground, and they have few natural predators (捕食者). The greatest threat to them is that lots of trees are being cut down. “Every single tree in Australia, right now, needs to be protected, and unless that happens I can promise you the koala is going to become extinct,” said Deborah Tabart, from the Australian Koala Foundation.
Scientists studying koalas say one of the keys to saving animals is to know where they live and how many of them are left. Using drones fitted with cameras to conduct a census (数目调查) was an untested concept. Queensland Institute of Technology technician Gavin Broadbent said they were doubtful at first. “But when we saw the images come through, we saw the koalas were very clear compared to the trees and the environment. So we thought, yes, this is absolutely a proof of a concept that could work,” he said.
The images sent back to a computer clearly show the animal’s position, even from a distance far enough away not to disturb its sleep. Scientists can scan the trees from all angles, picking out koalas even in the densest (稠密的) areas.
Scientists say it is now clear that drones with cameras can be used for spotting, and perhaps saving, other animals in the wild.
32. What can we learn about koalas from the second paragraph
A. Koalas have nothing to eat but eucalyptus leaves.
B. Koalas’ food is high in calories, so they are fat.
C. Koalas are not very active because they like sleeping.
D. Koalas live in high branches so they are difficult to spot.
33. What is making the number of koalas decrease
A. Hunting. B. Their natural predators.
C. Destruction of their habitat. D. Climate change.
34. Which of the following is NOT an advantage of the new method to spot koalas
A. It can be used to protect other animals in the world.
B. The pictures shot by the cameras clearly show koalas’ position.
C. It can be carried out without disturbing koalas’ sleep.
D. The koalas in the densest areas can be picked out with this method.
35. What would be the best title for the text
A. How Koalas Live in Australia
B. The Number of the Koalas Is Decreasing Sharply
C. Measures Must Be Taken to Protect Koalas’ Habitat
D. Drones Help Scientists Spot Endangered Koalas

After she was finally done with that, she went to the kitchen to find something to eat. After eating, she went back into the bathroom. Afraid to look in the mirror, she started to brush her teeth.

Teenage life is quite dramatic but that doesn’t mean you cannot enjoy your life in these years. Even with your daily troubles, your life is not very hard if you know how to deal with them.
I know exactly how you feel. Teenage life can be hard. You are not a kid anymore, because you are smart enough to consider your surroundings. However, you are still not an adult because there are still lots of experiences that you need to have and lessons that you need to learn from these experiences. Above all, the hormonal (荷尔蒙的) imbalance in your body can really mess you up. I have been there. I was in it for six years exploring what life is about!
As a teenager, I had a major problem completing my routine tasks on time. And at that time, all that I needed to do was to finish my homework, study for the upcoming tests and clean my room. Now, I have much more things to do: cooking, cleaning and working while keeping a balance between all my relationships related to work, family and friends. That really is a lot of work. So, I will just give you one golden tip, “Never leave that till tomorrow which you can do today.”
Life becomes much easier now because I finish all my work on time and I have enough time to let my hair down. Half the problems of a teenager appear because we hate doing things. We’d rather go and have fun than sit down and take on our responsibilities. That is why you have so much trouble in your life; your parents won’t let you go out with friends because you haven’t cleaned your room or your teacher is always criticizing you because you haven’t finished your homework.

Small endangered animals are often hard to find in their natural habitats (栖息地), making it difficult for scientists to spot them and develop conservation plans. But new technologies can help. Australian researchers have equipped flying drones (遥控飞机) with cameras so they can spot koalas hiding high in trees.
Koalas spend most of their lives in eucalyptus trees (桉树), whose leaves are their favorite food. Since the leaves are low in calories and nutritional content, koalas are not very active — they sleep up to 20 hours a day. Living in high branches, they are not easy to spot from the ground, and they have few natural predators (捕食者). The greatest threat to them is that lots of trees are being cut down. “Every single tree in Australia, right now, needs to be protected, and unless that happens I can promise you the koala is going to become extinct,” said Deborah Tabart, from the Australian Koala Foundation.
Scientists studying koalas say one of the keys to saving animals is to know where they live and how many of them are left. Using drones fitted with cameras to conduct a census (数目调查) was an untested concept. Queensland Institute of Technology technician Gavin Broadbent said they were doubtful at first. “But when we saw the images come through, we saw the koalas were very clear compared to the trees and the environment. So we thought, yes, this is absolutely a proof of a concept that could work,” he said.
The images sent back to a computer clearly show the animal’s position, even from a distance far enough away not to disturb its sleep. Scientists can scan the trees from all angles, picking out koalas even in the densest (稠密的) areas.
Scientists say it is now clear that drones with cameras can be used for spotting, and perhaps saving, other animals in the wild.
32. What can we learn about koalas from the second paragraph
A. Koalas have nothing to eat but eucalyptus leaves.
B. Koalas’ food is high in calories, so they are fat.
C. Koalas are not very active because they like sleeping.
D. Koalas live in high branches so they are difficult to spot.
33. What is making the number of koalas decrease
A. Hunting. B. Their natural predators.
C. Destruction of their habitat. D. Climate change.
34. Which of the following is NOT an advantage of the new method to spot koalas
A. It can be used to protect other animals in the world.
B. The pictures shot by the cameras clearly show koalas’ position.
C. It can be carried out without disturbing koalas’ sleep.
D. The koalas in the densest areas can be picked out with this method.
35. What would be the best title for the text
A. How Koalas Live in Australia
B. The Number of the Koalas Is Decreasing Sharply
C. Measures Must Be Taken to Protect Koalas’ Habitat
D. Drones Help Scientists Spot Endangered Koalas

Small endangered animals are often hard to find in their natural habitats (栖息地), making it difficult for scientists to spot them and develop conservation plans. But new technologies can help. Australian researchers have equipped flying drones (遥控飞机) with cameras so they can spot koalas hiding high in trees.
Koalas spend most of their lives in eucalyptus trees (桉树), whose leaves are their favorite food. Since the leaves are low in calories and nutritional content, koalas are not very active — they sleep up to 20 hours a day. Living in high branches, they are not easy to spot from the ground, and they have few natural predators (捕食者). The greatest threat to them is that lots of trees are being cut down. “Every single tree in Australia, right now, needs to be protected, and unless that happens I can promise you the koala is going to become extinct,” said Deborah Tabart, from the Australian Koala Foundation.
Scientists studying koalas say one of the keys to saving animals is to know where they live and how many of them are left. Using drones fitted with cameras to conduct a census (数目调查) was an untested concept. Queensland Institute of Technology technician Gavin Broadbent said they were doubtful at first. “But when we saw the images come through, we saw the koalas were very clear compared to the trees and the environment. So we thought, yes, this is absolutely a proof of a concept that could work,” he said.
The images sent back to a computer clearly show the animal’s position, even from a distance far enough away not to disturb its sleep. Scientists can scan the trees from all angles, picking out koalas even in the densest (稠密的) areas.
Scientists say it is now clear that drones with cameras can be used for spotting, and perhaps saving, other animals in the wild.
32. What can we learn about koalas from the second paragraph
A. Koalas have nothing to eat but eucalyptus leaves.
B. Koalas’ food is high in calories, so they are fat.
C. Koalas are not very active because they like sleeping.
D. Koalas live in high branches so they are difficult to spot.
33. What is making the number of koalas decrease
A. Hunting. B. Their natural predators.
C. Destruction of their habitat. D. Climate change.
34. Which of the following is NOT an advantage of the new method to spot koalas
A. It can be used to protect other animals in the world.
B. The pictures shot by the cameras clearly show koalas’ position.
C. It can be carried out without disturbing koalas’ sleep.
D. The koalas in the densest areas can be picked out with this method.
35. What would be the best title for the text
A. How Koalas Live in Australia
B. The Number of the Koalas Is Decreasing Sharply
C. Measures Must Be Taken to Protect Koalas’ Habitat
D. Drones Help Scientists Spot Endangered Koalas
