根据短文内容,回答下列问题 (每题答案不超过 8 个词)。
Wild koalas share their home with millions of people. That has created problems for the animals. Over the past 200 years, humans have cut down forests to build homes and start businesses. Koalas live in trees, and they also depend on them for food. As a result, the koala population has become smaller and smaller. Fewer than 200,000 koalas may be left in the wild today. In 1800, there were millions of them.
What’s worse, many koalas are hit by cars or attacked (攻击) by pet dogs every year. Luckily, there is a place for them—the Port Macquarie Koala Hospital. The hospital treats about 250 koalas each year. The hospital even has a special koala ambulance (救护车). Without the ambulance, people might try to pick up koalas themselves. That’s a bad idea. Koalas may look cute, but they’re still wild animals. They might hurt a person.
The hospital’s most important goal is to return the animals to the wild after they are healthy. That includes baby koalas. But baby koalas can become dependent on the humans who care for them. That makes it hard for them to live in the wild later on. So when baby koalas are almost grown, they enter a special yard. People aren’t allowed in. The baby koalas learn to live together without humans.
As soon as they can live on their own, young koalas are taken to a wildlife sanctuary (野生动物保护区). “We don’t leave them near towns,” explained Cheyne Flanagan, the director of the koala hospital. “That’s because they might go into someone’s house and want to be picked up.”
1. Where do koalas live?
2. How many koalas are saved by the koala hospital every year?
3. Why is it a bad idea for humans to pick up koalas?
4. What do baby koalas do in the special yard?
5. What do you think you can do to help protect koalas?

根据短文内容,回答下列问题(每题答案不超过8个词)。
野生考拉和数百万人共享它们的家园。这给这些动物带来了问题。在过去的200年里,人类砍伐森林来建造房屋和开展商业活动。考拉生活在树上,它们也依赖树木获取食物。结果,考拉的数量变得越来越少。如今野生考拉可能只剩下不到20万只。在1800年,它们的数量有数百万只。
更糟糕的是,每年都有许多考拉被汽车撞到或者被宠物狗攻击。幸运的是,有一个地方能容纳它们——麦夸里港考拉医院。这家医院每年治疗大约250只考拉。医院甚至有一辆专门的考拉救护车。如果没有救护车,人们可能会试图自己抱起考拉。这是个坏主意。考拉可能看起来很可爱,但它们仍然是野生动物。它们可能会伤害人。
这家医院最重要的目标是在动物康复后将它们放归野外。这也包括考拉宝宝。但是考拉宝宝会对照顾它们的人类产生依赖。这使得它们以后很难在野外生存。所以当考拉宝宝快长大时,它们会进入一个特殊的院子。人类不被允许进入这个院子。考拉宝宝学习在没有人类的情况下一起生活。
一旦它们能够独立生活,年轻的考拉就会被带到一个野生动物保护区。“我们不会把它们留在城镇附近,”考拉医院的院长切恩·弗拉纳根解释说,“那是因为它们可能会走进别人的房子,还希望被人抱起来。”
1. 考拉住在哪里?
在树上。
2. 考拉医院每年拯救多少只考拉?
大约250只。
3. 人类抱起考拉为什么是个坏主意?
因为它们可能会伤人。
4. 考拉宝宝在特殊院子里做什么?
它们学习在没有人类的情况下一起生活。
5. 你认为你能做些什么来帮助保护考拉?
我可以种植它们需要的树。
