If you go to Australia, you can see koalas. It's a kind of cute animal mostly to be found in Australia. They are a symbol of Australia. And they are sent to other countries like America, China and France as gifts. But they are all kept in zoos in these countries. You can see them in the wild only in Australia. They have no natural enemies, so they are very safe. The koala's favourite food is the leaves of the eucalyptus tree.
Victoria is in the southeast of Australia. In Victoria, the number of koalas is growing these years. This is a problem because the koalas nearly eat all the eucalyptus trees and then they have nothing to eat.

解析
【分析】
做这篇阅读理解时，我们可以按照先读题干划关键词、再回原文定位匹配信息的思路来解题：
1. 第1题提取题干关键词“Koalas are sent to other countries”，直接回到原文第一段查找对应描述即可得到答案；
2. 第2题明确指向第二段，通读第二段内容，将选项和原文信息逐一比对，排除不符合的错误选项就能选出正确答案；
3. 第3题提取关键词“save koalas in Victoria”，定位到最后一段的相关举措描述，和选项做匹配即可；
4. 第4题要求选出不正确的表述，把四个选项逐一和原文第一段的考拉基础介绍内容核对，就能找出错误项；
5. 第5题是主旨大意题，梳理全文内容：第一段讲考拉的基本属性、分布、食物，第二三段讲维多利亚州考拉的数量问题和应对措施，整体围绕考拉展开介绍，排除片面的局部选项即可。
【解析】
1. 原文第一段明确提到“And they are sent to other countries like America, China and France as gifts.”，可知考拉是作为礼物被送往其他国家的，A（赚钱）、C（繁育考拉）、D（吃桉树）均无原文依据，选B。
2. 第二段明确提到“This is a problem because the koalas nearly eat all the eucalyptus trees and then they have nothing to eat.”，对应C选项描述正确；A选项考拉只爱吃桉树叶，并非喜欢所有树木，表述错误；B选项第二段没有提及当地人把考拉当宠物饲养，无依据；D选项第二段没有说明维多利亚没有考拉的栖息地，表述错误。
3. 最后一段首句“These days, people move 500 koalas to other forests, and they want to keep the number of koalas down.”，可知人们的应对措施是把部分考拉转移到其他森林，选D；A选项修建更多动物园无原文依据，B选项文中没有提到猎杀考拉，C选项文中说明桉树需要多年才能重新长大，没有提及人们种植更多桉树，均错误。
4. 原文第一段提到“They have no natural enemies, so they are very safe.”，说明考拉没有自然天敌，C选项“考拉有很多天敌”表述错误；其余A（考拉是澳大利亚的象征）、B（只有在澳大利亚才能看到野生考拉）、D（考拉最爱的食物是桉树叶）均和原文描述一致，本题选错误项C。
5. 全文从考拉的基本特征、象征意义、分布，到维多利亚州考拉的数量现状和应对措施，整体是对考拉的相关介绍；A只讲食物、B文中没有提及考拉的天敌、D只讲控制考拉数量的方法，都是片面的局部内容，无法概括全文，选C。
