It is six months old before it is big and strong enough to leave the pouch. Some of the marsupials in Australia look very much like higher animals. The koala, which looks like a live teddy bear, is not really a bear at all but a marsupial. Today Australian marsupials are dying out. Dogs, cats, and rabbits brought to Australia by men are rapidly destroying the gentler marsupials. Some day there may be nothing left of the ancient animals. Australia has around 800 species of birds, 400 of which are unique to this country. There are 55 species of parrots in Australia, and the birds are as numerous as they are colourful. Two types of crocodile, the saltwater and the freshwater crocodile are found in the north. The dingo, or native dog is not really an Australian native. It was bought from Asia around 4000 years ago. The dingo is an effective hunter. To save their sheep from dingo attacks, farmers built many fences to keep the dingo out.
To grow well, sunflowers need full sun. They grow best in fertile, moist, well-drained soil with a lot of mulch. In commercial planting, seeds are planted 45 cm (1.5') apart and 2.5 cm (1") deep. Sunflower "whole seed" (fruit) is sold as snacks and can be processed into a peanut butter alternative, Sunbutter, especially in China, the United States, the Middle East and Europe. In Russia it is probably the most wide spread snack.[citation needed] It is also sold as food for birds and can be used directly in cooking and salads. Sunflower oil, extracted from the seeds, is used for cooking (but is less cardiohealthy than olive oil), as a carrier oil and to produce biodiesel, for which it is less expensive than the olive product. During the 18th Century, the use of sunflower oil became very popular in Europe, particularly with members of the Russian Orthodox Church because sunflower oil was one of the few oils that was not prohibited during Lent.

You will need this time for the Reading Comprehension section. If you do not know the word tested or can't determine its synonym, choose (B) or (C) as your answer. On the TOEFL, (B) and (C) answers tend to be used slightly more than (A) and (D). Also remember that answer choices that contain the same prefix or suffix or are pronounced like the underlined word are seldom the correct answers. Examine the following question. Swallows are among the most agile passerine birds. (A) Idle (B) swift (C) fragile (D) frail Note that choices (A) and (C), idle and fragile, have sounds similar to agile. Such words are not usually the correct choice. Such words are often used to distract you. Unless you are sure of the answer do not choose these words. Let's see how to use our strategy with a sample item. Look at the sentence and look immediately to the underlined word. Do not read any other words in the sentence
