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 didnt 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 baruas father was a hunter of tigers and an elephant tamer（馴獸者）. 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 hasnt 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. “l(fā)ife in the city is too dull. catching elephants is an adventure and the excitement lasts for days after the chase,” she says.but parbati doesnt 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 to _. a. get long lasting excitement b. make the angry elephants tame c. send them back to the jungle d. keep

india _. 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 b how many men do housework? recently a european commission tried to find out peoples ideas and reactions to the womens movement. as part of their survey (調(diào)查), they asked many men and women the question, “who does the housework?” the men answered very differently from the women! the housework they asked people about were: preparing meals, washing dishes, cleaning the house and babysitting. 48% of british husbands said they did these things. 37% of danish men helped in the house. but only 15% of italian men said they did the housework, many of them said they never helped at all! but there was an interesting point of view from the wives. according to british wives, only 38% of their husbands helped in the house. and italian wives said that their husbands hardly ever helped. the italian and british men did not tell the truth! the commission found that danish men were the most trustful husbands; their answers were the same as their wives answers. do the men you know help in the house? do you think the survey gives a true picture in your experience? write and tell us what you think.55. the survey was carried out in _. a. britainb. europec. denmark d. italy 56. the subject for the

was in trouble and was he? have you ever dreamed something that came true later? maybe you have esp（特異功能）. esp stands for extrasensory perception. it may be called a sixth sense. it seems to let people know about events before they happen, or events that are happening some distance away.heres an example. a woman was ironing clothes. suddenly she screamed, “my father is dead! i saw him sitting in the chair!” just then, a telegram came. the womans father died of a heart attack. he died sitting in a chair.there are thousands of stories like this one on record. scientists are studying them to find out whats behind these strange mental messages. heres another example one of hundreds of dreams that have come true. a man dreamed he was walking along a road when a horse and carriage came by. the driver said, “theres room for one more.” the man felt the driver seemed dead, so he ran away. the next day, when the man was getting on a crowded bus, the bus driver said. “theres room for one more.” then the man saw that the drivers face was the same face he had seen in the dream. he wouldnt get on the bus. as the bus drove off, it crashed and burst into flames. everyone was killed! some people say stories like these are coincidences. others, including some scientists, say that esp is real. from studies of esp, we may someday learn more about the human mind.59. according to the passage, the author believes that the sixth sense is _. a. possible b. imaginativec. not real d. impossible60. by studying esp, scientists may get to _. a. learn how people tell lies b. know more

my son and i were trying to sell the house we had repaired, but in the barn（谷倉(cāng)）there were bats and they would not leave. the barn was their home. they told us so in their own way they hung for the season. “dont worry about it, dad.” patrick said. “they keep down the mosquitoes（蚊子）.” unfortunately they also kept the buyers away. when we had asked a person to sell the house for us he had refused to show it because of the bats. “bats are popular,” patrick comforted me. “they are ecological.” “isnt there a machine you can buy that produces high-frequency sounds to keep bats away?” “ i dont know,” said patrick. “but i like bats, and whoever buys this house will probably like them too. “probably?” i hated that word. “how many bats are there, anyway?” “i counted about 90 last night,” said patrick. “they were dropping out from under the edge of the roof.” “you mean there are more-outside?” “theyre everywhere, dad. but look at it this way. when the cold weather comes, theyll be off to mexico. maybe in the spring we can keep them out. dont worry about it,” he said for the hundredth time. “its not a problem.” the bat expert i called was even more active than patrick. “i think youve got a large number there,” he said in wonder. “ive been trying to attract bats to our house for 25 years. a single bat ears up his weight in mosquitoes and black flies three times every night. youve a very lucky man.” i offered to share my luck with him. he could take them away. “bats have a remarkable homing instinct（本能）,” he said. “theyd fly straight back even if i transported them 100 miles. once they have settled, you cant stop them from coming back.” i was silent.finally we managed to rent the house to a young family, who were also interested in buying it. “what about the bats?” i said to patrick. “oh, they love the bats,” he said. “no mosquitoes. no black flies. its one of the things that attracted them.” “do you think they will really buy the house?” “probably? well, if they do, i suppose ill have to admit that i was wrong.” “you mean youre going to eat your words?”“yes. i am.”63. what was the problem the author had with his house?a. bats were living in the barn and wouldnt go away.b. the author and his son couldnt sleep well because of the batsc. the author and his son might be able to stay for the season.d. the house was still badly in need of repair.64. what
