Two months ago, I went to Australia for a meeting with my workmate(同事),Chris. We decided to drive across the country after the meeting. The drive would take four days and most of it was across the desert(沙漠).
The first day was a lot of fun because we were happy to hear each other's jokes(玩笑). But on the third day, we began to get bored. We were quite quiet for some hours when Chris saw some kangaroos(袋鼠).We were both excited and decided to take a closer(近一点的) look. Chris drove very quickly to catch up with(赶上)them. We got closer and closer when we heard a loud BANG!
Chris stopped the car and we got out. Beside the car was a large kangaroo lying on the ground. Chris went over to it and put his cap on its head. He took off his sunglasses and put them on the kangaroo and did the same with his jacket. Then he put his arm around the kangaroo and told me to take a photo of them together. I took out my camera. When I was focusing(调整焦距)the camera, I saw the kangaroo move(移动). It suddenly woke up, and ran away before we could do anything.
I started laughing but Chris looked worried. He said his wallet was in the jacket. I started laughing even louder. I stopped laughing when he said that our car keys were also in the jacket.

阅读下面短文,从每题所给的四个选项中,选出最佳答案。
This year some twenty-three hundred teenagers(young people aged from13~19)from all over the world will spend about ten months in U.S. homes. They will attend U.S. schools, meet U.S. teenagers, and form impressions of the real America. At the same time, about thirteen hundred American teenagers will go to other countries to learn new languages and gain a new understanding of the rest of the world.
Here is a two-way student exchange in action. Fred, nineteen, spent last year in Germany with George’s family. In turn, George’s son Mike spent a year in Fred’s home in America.
Fred, a lively young man, knew little German when he arrived, but after two months’ study the language began to come to him. School was completely different from what he had expected—much harder. Students rose respectfully when the teacher entered the room. They took fourteen subjects instead of the six that are usual in the United States. There were almost no outside activities.
Family life, too, was different. The father’s word was law, and all activities were around the family rather than the individual. Fred found the food too simple at first. Also, he missed having a car.
“Back home, you pick up some friends in a car and go out and have a good time. In Germany, you walk, but you soon learn to like it.”
At the same time, in America, Mike, a friendly German boy, was also forming his idea. “I suppose I should criticize(批评)American schools,” he said. “It is far too easy by our level. But I have to say that I like it very much. In Germany we do nothing but study. Here we take part in many outside activities. I think that maybe your schools are better in training for citizens. There ought to be some middle ground between the two.”
【小题1】This year ________teenagers will take part in the exchange programme between America and other countries.
A.twenty-three hundred |
B.thirteen hundred |
C.over three thousand |
D.less than two thousand |
A.help teenagers in other countries know the real America |
B.send students in America to travel in Germany |
C.let students learn something about other countries |
D.have teenagers learn new languages |
A.America food tasted better than German food |
B.German schools were harder than American schools |
C.Americans and Germans were both friendly |
D.There were more cars on the streets in America |
A.there is some middle ground between the two teaching buildings |
B.there are a lot of after-school activities |
C.students usually take fourteen subjects in all |
D.students go outside to enjoy themselves in a car |
