26、 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 ran after 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. 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—caught 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!
【1】For Parbati, catching elephants is mainly to ______.
A.get long lasting excitement B.keep both man and elephants safe
C.send them back to the jungle D.make the angry elephants tame
【2】Before Parbati studied in a boarding school, ______.
A.she spent her time hunting with her father
B.she learned how to sing love songs after class
C.she was taught how to hunt tigers in the woods
D.she had already been called an elephant princess
【3】Why are Indian elephants beginning to fight back?
A.Because illegal hunters catch them and kill them
B.Because they are caught and sent for heavy work
C.Because they are attacked and their land gets limited
D.Because dogs usually bark at them and interrupt them
【4】The elephant story in the beginning shows that in India ______.
A.dogs are often as powerful as elephants
B.people easily fall victims to elephants' attacks
C.elephant tamers are becoming fewer and fewer
D.the man-elephant relationship is getting much worse
27、 Our camp was situated on a remote island off the coast of Vancouver. I went with my classmates, and we had to get up at five in the morning to make the three-hour-long trip. When we got there, the first thing I noticed was how rustic（纯朴的）everything was. There were wooden cabins, forests surrounding us on all sides and a lake. There wasn't, to my disappointment, a computer lab, cell reception or wi-fi.
“Please hand over all electronic devices you have with you,” the camp guide announced once everyone was off the coast and standing on the-dock. “This includes cameras, cell phones, watches...” And the list went on and on. We were all dropping our stuff into a bag. When it was my turn, I hesitated for a second before carefully placing my phone into the bag with a heavy heart.
Right after we were all stripped of（剥夺）technology, the guides led us on a five-hour hike through the woods. Between the steep hills, muddy slopes and the soft, but incessant（不间断的）drizzling rain, I was completely worn out in the end. When I reached into my pocket wanting to check the time, my fingers, with disappointment, closed on thin air.
The next day, I was feeling slightly better. It had stopped raining, and we were going canoeing. Though I was eager for my phone, the longing was manageable. After two hours of non-stop canoeing, I realized I had not thought of my phone all morning. That afternoon was even busier, with lots of hiking, storytelling and swimming. I went to sleep, worn out but happy.
The next day was the third and final day of camping. I smiled as my friends excitedly chattered about finally getting access to the Internet again, but I didn't feel the same way anymore. Yes, the Internet is fun, but getting outdoors with your friends is even better.

28、Winter Wonders in Qinling Mountain Range
Central China’s Qinling Mountain Range divides the country north to south. In winter, the mountains are covered with white snow and ice. The mountains are about an hour-and-a-half drive from Shanxi’s provincial capital, Xian, which was home to several Chinese dvnasties. Here are three winter destinations south of the range in Shaanxi.
Going wild in Yangxian County
Crested ibises (朱鹮) fly in the sky on the mountain’s southwest. There are only 5, 000 worldwide. Half live in Hangzhong’s Yangian after decades of protetion. Spring is the busiest vsiting season. Birdwatchers from Japan and South Korea fly thousands of miles to Yangxian to see the creatures.
Tickets: 40 yuan ( $6)

Drinking soup in Shiquan County
Shiquan is just one of the counties south of the Qinling Mountains dating back over 2, 000 years. Shiquan has preserved the custom of serving dinners individually as guests arrive. Residents offer them paotang soup, which is a local dish. Shiquan paotang was oficially listed as a provincial-level intangible cultural heritage form in 2018.
Cost: 60 yuan ( $9) per meal per person
Snow on show at Jinsi Canyon
Jinsi Canyon on the Qinling range’s southeastern side is covered with white snow in winter. The whole canyon is like a natural ice-sculpture exhibition hall.

29、The discussion on renewable energy has been going on for at least a decade and people have relied on fossil fuels almost entirely for more than a century. However, the situation when fossil fuels were the most efficient and the cheapest source of energy has been left far in the past. Many countries such as Germany and Sweden have already made significant efforts to fix this situation, employing numerous power plants working on the renewable resources of energy. The most effective among these resources is geothermal energy.
Geothermal energy does not depend on the world’s economic and political situation as strongly as fossil fuels do. Besides, extracting fossil fuels adds to the price of energy produced from them. Therefore, geothermal energy is much cheaper than traditional energy, saving up to 80% of the costs over fossil fuels.
Being a renewable resource, geothermal energy produces less waste and pollution than traditional energy sources. In geothermal systems, carbon dioxide makes up about 10% of air produced. Overall, in order to produce the electricity that can be used for one hour, the geothermal systems produce 0.1 pound of carbon dioxide and other harmful gases. For a comparison, a power plant producing from gas produces up to 2 pounds of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, and those power plants that work on coal produce an astonishing 3.6 pounds of greenhouse gases.
Low costs is another reason why using geothermal power plants should be the first choice for many countries. Geothermal heat systems require 25% to 50% less energy for work compared with the traditional systems for heating or cooling. Besides, geothermal equipment is less big：due to the very nature of geothermal energy, geothermal power plants have only a few moving parts, all of which can be easily sheltered inside a relatively small building. What’s more, the life span of geothermal equipment is rather long. All these make geothermal power stations easy to build and keep.
【1】Fossil fuels are more expensive than geothermal energy partly because ________.
A．it is free to use geothermal energy
B．the production of fossil fuels costs a lot
C．fossil fuels are nearly used up
D．geothermal energy doesn’t depend on political situation
【2】According to Paragraph 3, what can be concluded from the comparison?
A．Geothermal energy is environmentally friendly.
B．Gas and coal are often used to produce electricity.
C．Coal is much more efficient than gas.
D．The geothermal systems don’t produce harmful gases.
【3】What is the main idea of this passage?
A．Many countries have benefited from geothermal energy.
B．Geothermal energy is well accepted.
C．Fossil fuels are being run out of.
D．Geothermal energy has many advantages.
