【题目】I suddenly heard an elephant crying as though frightened. Looking down，I immediately recognized that something was wrong，and ran down to the edge of the near bank. There I saw Ma Shwe with her threemonthold calf struggling in the fast-rising water，and it was a lifeanddeath struggle. Her calf was floating(漂浮) and screaming with fear.Ma Shwe was as near to the far bank as she could get，holding her whole body against the rushing water，and keeping the calf pressed against her huge body.Every now and then the rushing water would sweep the calf away.

There was a sudden rise in the water and the calf was washed clean over the mother's body and was gone. Ma Shwe turned quickly to reach it and pressed the calf with her head and trunk (象鼻) against the rocky bank. Then with a huge effort，she picked it up in her trunk and tried until she was able to place it on a narrow shelf of rock.

Just at this moment，she fell back into the river. If she were carried down，it would be certain death. I knew，as well as she did，that there was one spot (地点) where she could get up the bank，but it was on the other side from where she had put her calf.

While I was wondering what I could do next，I heard the sound of a mother's love. Ma Shwe had crossed the river and got up the bank and was making her way back as fast as she could，roaring (吼叫) all the time，but to her calf it was music.

【答案】

【1】D

【2】A

【3】A

【4】A

【解析】试题分析：本文主要讲了“我”在听到一头大象的哭声后，走近河岸边的所见：一头母象为了挽救自己的幼崽，正在与一场凶猛的河水进行生死搏斗。经过她的不懈努力和她终于成功营救了自己的孩子，并奋不顾身地冲向河岸的另一边。这个故事告诉我们动物之间也有和人一样的母子真情存在。

【1】细节题。文章第一段讲到当“我走到河岸边时，“我”的所见Ma Shwe was as near to the far bank as she could get, holding her whole body against the rushing water。意思是：Ma Shwe尽可能的贴近河岸，抓住小象来对抗洪水。这里的her指calf。对照选项可知，答案为D

【2】细节题。由文章第一段中对Ma Shwe营救小象的细节描写可知，Ma Shwe是在寻找一个安全的地方。文章第二段第三句话I knew, as well as she did, that there was one spot (地点) where she could get up the bank, but it was on the other side from where she had put her calf再次说明她是通过小象发到一个安全的地方来营救小象的。故选A

【3】推理判断题。由文章对小象的描写Her calf was floating and screaming with fear.可知小象一直是处于紧张、害怕的状态，知道象妈妈成功的救了自己并来到自己身边时，它的害怕和紧张情绪在得以平复，对于象妈妈的吼叫也像是音乐一般成为小象的一种抚慰。故选D

【4】主旨大意题。由文章内容可知，这篇文章主要是讲母象Ma Shwe在遇到洪水时，奋不顾身的营救自己的孩子的整个过程，体现了伟大的母爱。故选A

The right pair of exercise shoes can do a lot to prevent discomfort and injuries, personal trainers say. Here are some shopping tips:

【1】 Depending on your workout, shoes designed for walking, running, tennis, cross-training or another specialty will provide the best support for your feet.

Shop when you normally exercise. Feet actually get bigger throughout the day, sometimes swelling up as much as a half-size by nighttime. 【2】

Try them on. Never grab a pair of exercise shoes based only on the size of footwear you normally buy. Bring the type of socks you’d wear to work out and go for a walk through the store.

【3】 You should be able to spread your toes out comfortably. Make sure there’s about a half-inch of space between them and the front of the shoe. The back should fit snugly (warmly and comfortably) against your heel and not move up and down. If your feet are different sizes, buy based on the larger one.

Talk to an expert. Shoe salesmen and personal trainers can study your stride (步伐) and the shape of your feet. 【4】

【5】 Many trainers recommend switching footwear every three to five months, if possible, to maintain proper cushioning and support.

One tip: if you have to tie your shoes very tightly to feel a good amount of support, they may be ready to go.

A. Think about how much you can afford to buy the workout shoes.

B. Consider your type of exercise.

C. Focus on fit.

D. So/span> don’t shop first thing in the morning if you often work out in the evening.

E. Pay more attention to new style shoes.

F. Replace worn shoes regularly.

G. Usually they can recommend the best shoes to guard against injuries.
