【分析】
1. 第8题：先锁定题目关键词“name is funny”，回到原文第一段寻找对应内容，原文明确指出因为乌龟行动迟缓，做任何事都不快速，所以名字显得有趣，据此匹配对应选项即可。
2. 第9题：需逐个核对选项与原文细节：先找到每个选项对应的段落位置，再对比原文表述判断对错，比如A对应第二段食物相关内容，B对应第二段外壳颜色描述，C对应第二段乌龟躲进壳的行为，D对应第三、四段寿命相关内容，通过排除法确定正确选项。
3. 第10题：先理解待填句子的核心——举例说明乌龟寿命长，再分析各段落主题，第三段提到“tortoises can live for a very long time”，该句子放在第三段末尾能承接上文，补充寿命长的实例，因此确定段落位置。
4. 第11题：根据划线词所在的上下文，原文说明冬天乌龟会一整个冬天睡觉，这种现象就是“hibernation”，结合常识和语境即可推断出词义。
【解析】
8. 定位原文第一段“I think that his name is funny because Speedy walks very slowly - he is not speedy (快速的) at all!”，可知乌龟做什么都不快，对应选项D。A选项主体错误，不是Simon行动慢；B选项原文未提及；C选项与名字有趣的原因无关，故选D。
9. 逐一分析选项：
A：原文第二段“Speedy does not like meat, so I feed him leaves and vegetables.”说明Speedy不喜欢肉，A错误；
B：原文第二段“Speedy is brown in color and he has a hard shell (壳) on his back.”外壳是棕色而非黑色，B错误；
C：原文第二段“When he is frightened, he can put his head inside his shell.”可知乌龟害怕时把头放进壳里是自我保护，C正确；
D：原文第三段仅说明乌龟寿命很长，第四段提到的150岁是动物园的乌龟，并非Speedy，D错误。故选C。
10. 待填句子“I saw a tortoise at the zoo that was one hundred and fifty years old!”是举例体现乌龟寿命长，第三段主题为乌龟寿命久，放在第三段末尾能承接上文，故选C。
11. 根据原文第四段“when winter comes, Speedy goes to sleep for the whole winter. This is called hibernation.”可知，乌龟冬天持续睡觉的现象是冬眠，故选B。
