A. Choose the best answer.

If you're planning on buying a small pet for your kids or family or are looking for a pet that is cute, friendly and fun, then you should consider a sugar glider (蜜袋鼯). It lives in Australia, Indonesia, New Guinea and Tasmania.

Sugar gliders are known by this name because they are fond of sweet food. Sugar gliders are also known as “pocket pets” because they're small in size and they like being carried in pockets. That is why many sugar glider owners keep these animals in their pockets to carry them wherever they go.

Sugar gliders are covered with the patagium (翼膜)，which looks like a parachute (降落伞) when they spread out their hands and feet, making them move in the air. Another attractive feature of sugar gliders is that they have big toes (脚趾) on their back which help make them stay on the tree.

It's known that sugar gliders are extremely lovable and social. This is why these pets get along well with their owners and their families. If you don't spend much time at home, the best idea is to keep another sugar glider pet. Sugar gliders aren't like other pets that can get used to anywhere in the house. They need a special and large area to live. So, you should get a comfortable and big space for your special pet.

The average lifespan（寿命）of sugar gliders is around 12 to 15 years. They' reactive pets that love to jump and glide. But the owner has to give enough care and love to them in order to keep them healthy. Sugar gliders are wonderful pets to keep. They're fun to watch and play with.

Answer the questions（根据短文内容回答下列问题）

Australia is almost as large as China（China is about 9,600,000 km2 while Australia is 7,682,300 km2）,but Australia has a much smaller population（just over 19. 5 million）. Most people live in cities along the coast of Australia, and huge areas of the rest of Australia are uninhabited（无人居住的）. In some areas, families live a long way away from one another and from towns and cities. Australians call this part of the country "the Out back（内陆）"or "the Bush". Most people who live in the outback work on huge sheep or cattle stations（农场）.Some of these properties are as large as 3,000~5,000 km2 and their nearest neighbours may be 100 km or more away.

Many children in the outback are too far from town to travel to school. Instead, they attend one of the sixteen Schools of the Air. The schools are located in towns and teachers use high frequency radio to talk to their classes. They also post work to the students who post it back for their teacher to mark. Students also use the Internet, fax and phone to communicate with their teacher and with other students. Sometimes students are sent a video or audiotape to help them with their lessons.

Tim Benton's brother George is the manager of a large cattle station in the Northern Territory. When they were in primary school, George's children, Rebecca and Oliver, attended the Alice Spring School of the Air. Their mother and father took it in turns to help them with their lessons. After they finished primary school, Rebecca and Oliver went to a high school in Alice Springs. They lived with their Aunt Mary during the school term and returned home during the school holidays. At first, high school was difficult because they weren't used to being in a class with other students. In some subjects, they did not know as much as the children from the town. However, they soon caught up because they had very good study skills, thanks to the School of the Air.

4.Which subjects do you think would be hardest to study at home?

Lonely old people now can buy “grandkids” by using an app named Papa. Through the app, elderly people can ask young people to come and visit them.

Elderly people, who may have lost touch with their own family, can also ask their rented(租用的) grandchildren to do chores and drive them around.

The elderly people can use Papa on the smartphone. If they don't have a smartphone, they can make a phone call. To use the service, the elderly people have to contact Papa first through either of the ways. The workers of Papa will provide advice for them for free and pair(配对) college students with them. Usually, the app costs the elderly people $15 an hour.

Most Papa Pals make about $20 to $30 per visit. The visit lasts around three hours. Andrew Parker, the founder of the service, says that Papa can also provide the service for people in need.
