26、Elephants are truly incredible animals. August 12 is World Elephant Day which means to help save elephants. What do you know about elephants? Here are some facts you may not know.

We know that elephants are large. But did you know that elephants often avoid eating a type of acacia tree(金合欢树), because it is home to ants and an elephant doesn’t want to get the ants inside its trunk. Its trunk is full of sensitive nerve endings(敏感神经末梢).

Female elephants live in groups of about 15 animals. The oldest in the group is the leader. She decides not only when and where they move but also when they rest all the year. Male elephants leave the female groups between age 12 and 15. But they aren’t loners. They live in all-male groups.

Asian elephants don’t run. Running requires lifting all four feet at once. But elephants filmed in Thailand always kept at least two on the ground at all times.

Elephants have passed the mirror test. They recognize themselves in a mirror. According to tests, great apes(巨猿), and dolphins(海豚) also have this ability.

Elephants can get sunburned so they take care to protect themselves. “Elephants will throw sand on their backs and on their head to keep them from getting sunburned and to keep bugs off,” said Tony Barthel, working at Smithsonian’s National Zoo. How do elephants protect their young? Adult elephants will put them in sand and then they will stand over the little ones as they sleep.

Some farmers in Kenya protect their fields from elephants by lining the borders with beehives(蜂巢). Not only are their crops saved, but the farmers also get more money from honey.

【1】World Elephant Day is designed to________.

A．show some facts about elephants

B．call on people to protect elephants

C．tell people some animals are in danger

D．introduce Asian elephants features

【2】Why are elephants not willing to eat acacia trees?

B．Acacia trees are too tall to reach.

C．Fruits on the acacia trees are hard to eat.

D．Elephants’trunks are easily hurt by ants in the trees.

【3】What do we infer about male elephants?

A．They live with female elephants at an early age.

B．They decide when and where their groups move.

C．Their oldest male elephant is chosen as their leader.

D．They can run faster than female elephants.

【4】How do elephants protect their young kids?

27、A new study explores the custom of tipping in the United States. Many Americans give tips to people who perform a job for them, especially workers in the service industry. They pay a little extra to people cutting their hair, driving them across town or serving them a meal at a restaurant.

The researchers found that men give bigger tips to restaurant workers than women. And people who live in the northern US are more generous with tips than those living in the South. People who earn $ 50, 000 or more a year give bigger tips than those who earn less than $50, 000. There is one likely reason: the wealthier Americans have more money to spend.

Michael Lynn is a professor of consumer behavior and marketing at the Cornell University School of Hotel Administration in New York. In other words, he knows a lot about the issue of tipping. In earlier surveys, Lynn said he found mixed results on the generosity of men and women when it comes to tipping. In some studies, men gave bigger tips than women. In others, women gave more money.

Lynn’s own research in American restaurants found that men give bigger tips when the restaurant server is a woman and women give more when the server is a man. Tips are very important to service employees. People who work at restaurants often get most of their earnings from tips.

Nationwide, Americans generally tip between 15 to 20 percent at restaurants and leave from $2 to S 10 a day for the people who clean their hotel rooms. Tips of 15 percent of the reading on the meter (计价器) are also common for people who drive taxis.

But here is something to keep in mind. If you are able to give the person serving you a tip or a bigger one than what is expected, your generosity will be welcome. Many service workers do not make much money, and even an extra dollar or two can make a difference in their lives.

【1】What is paragraph I mainly about?

A．A study in a restaurant.

B．A job offering a lot of tips.

C．The service industry in the US.

D．The custom of tipping in the US.

【2】What is Lynn’s finding in American restaurants?

A．People give more tips to the opposite sex server.

B．People are always more generous to service employers.

C．Men give the same tips to the women restaurant servers as women.

D．Men always give more tips to the men restaurant servers than women.

【3】How much tips do Americans generally pay if the reading on the taximeter is $100?

A．$2.

B．$10.

C．$15.

D．$20.

【4】What is the authors attitude towards tipping?

A．Doubtful.

B．Critical.

C．Uncaring.

D．Supportive.

28、   On a sunny spring day, a group of children, four to seven-year- old, sit on their bicycles.

They wear helmets to protect their heads and gloves to protect their hands. Their mothers, watch them closely for fear that the children will fall off their bikes. The children are ready to learn how to ride.

Rachel Varn still remembers how she felt riding a bicycle for the first time. Now her job is helping children experience that moment. Rachel Varn left her job of selling bicycles to become a trainer for bicycle riding last year. She founded Pedal Power Kids to teach bicycle education.

Before starting a ride, she teaches the children how to make sure the bicycles are in good condition for safe use. She calls it “the ABC quick check.” A is for air, she explains. “We have to check our tires before we ride.” B is for brakes. We want to make sure our brakes work before we find ourselves on the top of a hill about to go down. And C is for chain. She says the chain must be clean.

The rest of the training is more fun. The children learn riding skills, from balance and pedaling to turning, starting and stopping. And they learn to keep their eyes up and look ahead while riding. Varn says many children struggle to do this. They look down at the pedals (踏板) instead. She adds, “Obviously that doesn’t allow them to see what’s going on around them, and it also doesn’t allow them to turn properly.”

Varn says watching where you are going helps you turn easier.

Learning to ride a bicycle can open a whole new world to children. It gives them a sense of success and freedom. They become more sensitive to their surroundings and better able to make safe, smart decisions going from one place to another.

Varn’s goal is to get more children on two wheels. Since starting Pedal Power Kids last year, Varn has helped around 250 new riders.

【1】How do the mothers feel when the children are ready to learn riding?

A.Confident. B.Nervous.

C.Excited. D.Relaxed.

【2】What is “the ABC quick check” aimed to do?

A.To check if bikes are in safe condition for use.

B.To check if the tires are safe for them to use.

C.To make sure the brakes work.

D.To check whether the chain is clean.

【3】What will make it easier to turn the corner when riding a bike?

A.Stopping to look around. B.Looking down at the pedals.

C.Looking where they are going. D.Keeping their eyes up and looking up.

【4】What benefit can riding a bicycle bring according to the passage?

A.It opens a new world to the mothers.

B.It gives children a sense of achievement.

C.It helps children stay away from video games.

D.It makes children familiar with the surrounding.
