26、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?

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   .

27、It’s the weekend, and you decide to visit to your grandma who lives alone. When you arrive, however, you realize that she has another visitor, and you hear through the door the two of them laughing. You walk in and find that the visitor, sitting across the dining table from your grandma, is a robot. It’s laughing at your grandma’s joke.

Such a robot is something that a team of scientists at Kyoto University in Japan are working toward. They are teaching a robot named Erica how to laugh while talking to a human.

“We think that one of the important abilities of robots is empathy” said Dr. Koji Inoue, the leader of the team. So we decided that one way a robot can empathize with users is to share their laughter.

Erica’s development began with recording different human laughter. The scientists recorded more than 80 conversations. Then they studied the conversations and put the laughter in these conversations into different groups. Next, they trained Erica to learn the characteristics of each group of laughter in order to show them correctly in different situations.

Although the scientists have made some encouraging progress, they said that we are not able to have a natural talk with Erica as we have with a friend now. But then wait a few years, and you may find your own self at that dining table, telling jokes to a robot named Erica.
