5．For centuries，in the countries of south and Southeast Asia，the elephant has been an important part of the culture，economy and religion．And nowhere more so than in Thailand．Unlike its African cousin，the Asian elephant is easily domesticated（驯化）．The rare so-called white elephants have actually lent the power of royalty to its rulers，and until the 1920s the national flag was a white elephant on a red background．To the early Western visitors，the  country's romantic name was"Land of the White Elephant"．
Today，however，the story is very different．Out of work and out of land，the Thai elephant   struggles for survival in a nation that no longer needs it． The elephant has found itself more or less deserted by previous owners who have moved on to a different economic world and a society in  the western part．And while the elephant's problems began many years ago，now it has a very low  national advantage．
How does the national symbol turn into ignored animals？It is a story of worse environment and the changing lives of the Thais themselves．According to Richard Lair，Thailand's expert on  the Asian elephant and author of the report Gone Astray，at the turn of the  last century，there may well have been as many as 100，000 national elephants in the country．
In the north of Thailand alone，it was estimated （估计） that more than 20，000 elephants were employed in transport，1，000 of them alone on the road between the cities of Chiang Mai and Chiang Saen．     
This was at a time when 90 percent of Thailand was still forest--a habitat that not only supported the animals but also made them necessary to carry goods and people．Nothing ploughs through thick forest better than lots of sure-footed elephants．
By 1950 the elephant population had dropped，but still to the number of 13，397．However，today there-are probably no more than 3，800，with another l，350 wandering free in the national parks．But now，Thailand's forest covers only 20 percent of the land．This deforestation（采伐森林） is the central point of the elephant's difficult situation，for it has effectively put the animals out of work．This century，as the road network grew，the elephant's role as a beast of Burden decreased．
41．What can we know about African elephants from the passage？B
A．It is easy to domesticate them．
B．It is hard to domesticate them．
C．They are living a better life than Asian elephants．
D．Their fate is quite similar to that of Asian elephants．
42．Thailand was once called"Land of the White Elephant"becauseA
A．white elephant was a national symbol until the 1920s
B．white elephant is rarely seen and thus very special
C．white elephant has helped kings to gain the ruling authority
D．this name was so romantic that it was popular among visitors
43．Why is the Thai elephant"out of work"，according to the author？D
A．Because there are too many elephants but too few jobs．
B．Because the elephants can't do labor work any longer．
C．Because the government pays little attention to the problem．
D．Because the elephants are no longer useful to their owners．
44．Which of the following statements is TRUE about the elephant population at various times？D
A．There were 100，000 domesticated elephants at the turn of the last century．
B．20，000 elephants were employed in transport in Thailand at the turn of the century．
C．By 1950 the elephant population in Thailand has been quite small．
D．Today the elephant population is estimated at 5，150．
45．The passage is most probably fromC
A．a travel magazine

C．a research report                    
D．an official announcement．
6．Why is pink or purple a color for girls and blue or brown for boys？
The answer depends largely （16）on/upon cultural values as well as personal experiences．To the Egyptians，green was a color （17）that/which represented the hope and joy of spring，while for Muslims，it means heaven．Red is a symbol of good luck in many cultures．During the Spring Festival in China，children （18）are given（give） money in a red envelope to bring good fortune in the New Year．For many nations，blue is a symbol of protection and religious beliefs．Greek people often wear a blue necklace hoping to protect （19）themselves against evils（灾祸）．
People's （20）choice（choose） of colors is also influenced by their bodies'reactions toward them．Green is said to be （21）the most restful color．It has the ability to reduce pain and relax people both mentally （22）and physically．People （23）working（work） in green environment have been found to have fewer stomach aches．
Red can cause a person's blood pressure to rise and increase people's appetites（食欲）．Many decorators will include different shades of red in the restaurant．（24）Similarly（similar），many commercial websites will have a red"Buy Now"button because red is a color that easily catches a person's eye．
Blue is another calming color．Unlike red，blue is believed to cause people to lose appetite．So （25）if/whenyou want to eat less，some suggest that eating from blue plates can help．

4．Differentmetals（金属）have different uses，for example，steel is used in cars．
1．A report from the American Academy of Arts and Sciences'Commission reveals that，due to a job market which disproportionately rewards graduates in STEM （science，technology，engineering，and  mathematics） fields，more and more students are seeking degrees in business and hard-science subjects．
Some institutions have responded by cutting budgets in the arts and humanities and directing those  funds elsewhere．That's the wrong thing to do．The humanities-the study of languages，literature，history，philosophy，religion，ethics，etc．-and the arts are vital to our future．We should be investing more funds，more time and more expertise，not less，into these endeavors．
What detractors（诋毁者） of the"soft"subjects miss is that the arts and humanities provide an essential framework and context for understanding the wider world．Studying the humanities strengthens the ability to communicate and work with others．It allows students to develop broad intellectual and cultural understanding； it nurtures creativity and deepens participation in public discourse and modem democracy．
The commission's report points out that"at the very moment when China is seeking to adopt our model of broad education in the humanities，social sciences and natural sciences as a stimulus to  invention，the United States is instead narrowing our focus and abandoning our sense of what education has been and should continue to be-our sense of what makes America great．"
These are the telling statistics：First，federal funding for helping American students include international training in their education has been cut 41percent in four years．Second，the National  Assessment of Educational Progress test shows that only less than a quarter of eighth-and 12th-grade US students are proficient in reading，writing and civics．
How can we possibly equip the US for its leadership role in an increasingly connected world if we are not adequately teaching students to communicate and helping them understand and encounter diverse perspectives？If we fail to invest in the arts and humanities，our country's future leaders will not have the ability to connect on an emotional level with others．This ability is developed by studying the humanities，and in the global community this skill is not optional-it's essential．
In a word，we must enthusiastically support and fund the study of the arts and humanities．For anyone concerned with how this translates into a sound economy and a sound financial future，simply recall what Steve Jobs told graduates of Standford University in 2005：One of the most influential experiences in his brief time at Reed College was his exposure to the fine art of calligraphy（书法）． It taught him the important lesson of the relationship between discipline and creativity．

58．What can be inferred from the passage？B
A．Business and hard-science subjects are based upon the arts and humanities．
B．At present too much emphasis and investment are put on science in America．
C．More students will learn the arts and humanities instead of science in the USA．
D．China has spent more money in the humanities and social sciences than the USA．
59．The author mentions Steve Jobs in the last paragraph to prove thatB．
A．science has a close relationship with the arts and humanities
B．investment in the and and humanities promotes economic development
C．calligraphy plays a determining role in Steve Jobs'accomplishment
D．Reed College supports and funds the study of the arts and humanities
60．Which of the following is the most suitable title for this passage？A
A．Significance of arts and humanities         
B．Key qualities of future leaders
C．Decline of arts and humanities             
D．Rise and fall of hard sciences．
2．Not until the press reported the pollution _____________ why the water supply had been cut off．（　　）
A．people knewB．people had known
C．did people knowD．had people known
