1.The elephant was lying heavily on its side,fast asleep.A few dogs started barking at it.The elephant woke up in a terrible anger:it chased the dogs into the village where they ran for safety.That didn't stop the elephant.It destroyed a dozen houses and injured several people.The villagers were scared and angry.Then someone suggested calling Parbati,the elephant princess.
Parbati Barua's father was a hunter of tigers and an elephant tamer(驯兽者).He taught Parbati to ride an elephant before she could even walk.He also taught her the dangerous art of the elephant round-up--how to catch wild elephants.
Parbati hasn't always lived in the jungle.After a happy childhood hunting with her father,she was sent to boarding school in the city.But Parbati never got used to being there and many years later she went back to her old life."Life in the city is too dull.Catching elephants is an adventure and the excitement lasts for days after the chase,"she says.
But Parbati doesn't catch elephants just for fun."My work,"she says,"is to rescue man from the elephants,and to keep the elephants safe from man."And this is exactly what Parbati has been doing for many years.Increasingly,the Indian elephant is angry:for many years,illegal hunters have attacked it and its home in the jungle has been reduced to small pieces of land.It is now fighting back.Whenever wild elephants enter a tea garden or a village,Parbati is called to guide the animals back to the jungle before they can kill.
The work of an elephant tamer also involves love and devotion.A good elephant tamer will spend hours a day singing love songs to a newly captured elephant."Eventually they grow to love their tamers and never forget them.They are also more loyal than humans,"she said,as she climbed up one of her elephants and sat on the giant,happy animal.An elephant princess indeed!
51.For Parbati,catching elephants is mainly toD.
A.get long lasting excitement             B.make the angry elephants tame
C.send them back to the jungle            D.keep both man and elephants safe
52.Before Parbati studied in a boarding school,A.
A.she spent her time hunting with her father
B.she learned how to sing love songs
C.she had already been called an elephant princess
D.she was taught how to hunt tigers
53.Indian elephants are getting increasingly angry and they revenge(报复)becauseC.
A.they are caught and sent for heavy work
B.illegal hunters capture them and kill them
C.they are attacked and their land gets limited
D.dogs often bark at them and chase them
54.The passage starts with an elephant story in order to explain that in IndiaD.
A.people easily fall victim(受害者)to elephants attacks
B.dogs are as powerful as elephants
C.elephant tamers are in short supply
D.the man-elephant relationship is getting worse.

19.Cats like climbing trees and there are logical reasons behind this behavior.Interestingly,due to some of their physical features,cats will meet trouble getting down from the trees after climbing up,which may seem unusual.
There are several reasons why cats climb trees,mostly to do with defensive purposes.Cats,as predators(捕食者),like to understand their environment well.As they are small animals,their scope of vision is considerably smaller.Cats often climb trees to get a better view of their surroundings to help them see any potential dangers.
While cats are predators,they are also easy to get attacked from larger animals,such as dogs or even other cats.A tree often provides a safe hiding place.In the wild,cars climb up trees to give them a resting or napping place that is out of predators'range.It also helps disguise their presence,.
Some cats may climb trees for fun,on occasion,or possibly to work on improving their climbing abilities.Small cats frequently test out their claw skills by trying to climb up anything and everything,from bookcases to trees to a person's leg.Climbing practice is good for cats; it can improve their strength and flexibility and teach them an important defensive skill.
If a cat has gotten up a tree and cannot get down,the owner may wonder why its remarkable climbing abilities only work in one direction.A cat's claws curve inward,allowing it to grip onto surfaces while going up head first.Unfortunately,this useful climbing curve does nothing to help the animal get back down again.
Eventually,most trapped kitties will either jump out of the tree or realize that they can get down by going tail first.Either way,a cat up a tree is usually nothing to panic about unless it is injured or disabled; they are intelligent animals and will figure out how to get down sooner or later.
24.Why do cats have trouble getting down from a tree?D
A.They are afraid of height.
B.They are easy to get lost in a tree.
C.They don't know how to jump off a tree.
D.Their climbing ability doesn't help when climbing down.
25.According to the text small cats like to climb a person's leg toB.
A.show love to the person
B.test out their claw skills
C.avoid the attack from the dog
D.get food from a person's hand
26.What should you do when you see a cat trapped in a tree?B
A.Lead it down patiently.
B.Just let it alone
C.Teach it the right way to get down.
D.Watch it closely until it comes down.
27.What does this text mainly talk about?A
A.Why cats like to climb trees.
B.Why cats can't climb down a tree.
C.How cats manage to climb down a tree.
D.What owners do to help cats down a tree.
