22、 I’ve come back to check on a baby. Just after dusk I'm in a car down a muddy road in the rain, past rows of shackled(戴镣的) elephants, their trunks swinging. I was here five hours before, when the sun was high and hot and tourists were on elephants’ backs.
Walking now, I can barely see the path in the glow of my phone's flashlight. When the wooden fence post stops me short, I point my light down and follow a current of rainwater across the concrete floor until it washes up against three large, gray feet. A fourth foot twisted above the surface, tied tightly by a short chain and choked by ring of metal spikes(尖刺) When the elephant tires and puts her foot down, the spikes press deeper into her ankle.
Meena is four years and two months old, still a child as elephants go. Khammon Kongkhaw, her caretaker, told me earlier that Meena wears the spiked chain because she tends to kick. Kongkhaw has been responsible for Meena here at Maetaman Elephant Adventure, near Chiang Mai, in northern Thailand, since she was 11 months old. He said he keeps her on the spiked chain only during the day and takes it off at night. But it’ s night now.
I ask Jin Laoshen, the Maetaman worker accompany in me on this nighttime visit, why her chain is still on. He says he doesn’t know.
Mactaman is one of many animal attractions in and around tourist-crowded Chiang Mai. Meena's life is set to follow the same track as many of the roughly 3,800 captive(被捕获的) elephants in Thailand. When Meena is too old or sick to give rides-maybe at 55, maybe at 75she’ll die. If she's lucky, she’ll get a few years of retirement. She'll spend most of her life on a chain.
【1】Why does the author decide to come back?
A.She wants to check baby elephant Meena.
B.She wants to feed those shackled elephants.
C.She wants to release those shackled elephants.
D.She knows a baby is in need of help urgently
【2】What can we conclude from the second paragraph?
A.The author is scared walking in the path.
B.Meena is treated badly and very painful
C.Meena only has three healthy legs.
D.One of Meena's leg is badly broken.
【3】What's the author's attitude towards those elephants?
A.Indifferent. B.Critical.
C.Sympathetic. D.Negative.
【4】We can infer that the purpose of the author's writing is______________。
A.to describe those elephants to attract tourists around the world
B.to appeal to people to care about the fate of those elephants
C.to tell readers the story of a baby elephant in Chiang Mai, Thailand
D.to tell the reason why the number of elephants is decreasing
23、Parents should stop blaming themselves because there’s not a lot they can do about it. I mean the teenager problem. Whatever you do or however you choose to deal with it, at certain times a wonderful, reasonable and helpful child will turn into a terrible animal. I’ve seen friends deal with it in all kinds of different ways. One strict mother insisted that her son, right from a child, should stand up whenever anyone entered the room, open doors and shake hands like a gentleman. I saw him last week when I called round. Sprawling himself (懒散地躺) on the sofa in full length, he made no attempt to turn off the loud TV he was watching as I walked in, and his greeting was no more than a quick glance at me. His mother was ashamed. “I don’t know what to do with him these days,” she said. “He’s forgotten all the manners we taught him.”
He hasn’t forgotten them. He’s just decided that he’s not going to use them. She confessed(坦白) that she would like to come up behind him and throw him down from the sofa onto the floor.
Another good friend of mine let her two daughters climb all over the furniture, reach across the table, stare at me and say,
“I don’t like your dress; it’s ugly.” One of the daughters has recently been driven out of school. The other has left home.
“Where did we go wrong?” her parents are now very sad. Probably nowhere much. At least, no more than the rest of that unfortunate race, parents.

26、阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Julia had a habit of carelessness, which her mother failed to correct. Her parents were afraid if this carelessness were not corrected, it might produce very unhappy consequences. One morning, the following conversation took place between Julia and her mother:
“Julia, my dear, did you put the china cups in the cupboard when I told you?”
Julia started. “Oh! I forgot!”
“Where did you leave them?”
“I believe I left them in little Henry’s room-yes, I did, mom; but I’ll go and put them up this minute.”
Without a moment’s delay, Julia ran into Henry’s room. What she found were broken pieces of the cups on the floor. Two-year-old Henry, in lifting his toy horse down, had overturned and broken the cups. What’s worse, she saw a ruined book on the desk near the window. Caroline, Julia’s sister who was one year older than her, had brought home from school a very interesting picture book. Julia read it and forgot to put it away. She forgot to close the window too. Now the book and the curtains were wet from the rain outside.
“Oh, the cups! And the book! Mom, I am sorry!” Julia cried.
“Yes, Julia, I believe you are sorry; but make this sorrow of use to you. It is true the broken cups and the book can not be restored; but let it be a warning to you in future. If you continue to be so careless, you will not only suffer from it yourself, but it will be a constant source of trouble to others. ”
“Mom, I will change—indeed I will.” Throwing her little arms round her mother’s neck, Julia promised sincerely.
Time passed on; Julia grew older, and no very bad effects resulted from her carelessness. Her mother gladly hoped that the habit was conquered; but no, Julia was far from that.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
