What if your bird held a colored pencil in its beak(喙) and painted on a piece of paper? Most people may think of animal art as a joke, but some people have been taking it very seriously.Elephants were used for hundreds of years in Thailands logging industry(伐木業(yè)).They moved wood from forests in areas where there were no roads.At the beginning of this century, when the forests of Thailand began to quickly disappear, the government put a stop to logging.All of a sudden, many elephants in Thailand no longer had a way to make a living.Some elephants were treated badly.Others had to try to live on their own and couldnt find enough food to eat.There were once tens of thousands of elephants in Thailand.Today, there are less than five thousand.When two Russian American artists, Vitaly Komar and Alex Melamid, first heard about the troubled elephants in Thailand, they knew that something had to be done to forever change the way people treated Thai elephants.Then, they came up with an idea to help these elephants.Komar and Melamid visited elephant camps in Thailand and began to show the elephant trainers how to teach the elephants to paint.At first, the trainers had to guide the elephants trunks.The elephants became more comfortable doing this with practiceand lots of sweet snacksand finally started to paint on their own.The strange idea that Komar and Melamid had to save the elephants actually began to work.They even helped found several elephant art schools in Thailand and in other Asian countries.The elephants and their trainers go there to learn about painting and get supplies they need.Today, people begin to buy elephant artworks from galleries(畫廊) all around the world.Some are even willing to pay more than $2,000 for the works of the elephant artists! Some people compare the cheerful, brightly-colored artworks to the works of some great abstract(抽象的) painters.Some people are just happy to buy these special and original(原創(chuàng)的) artworks.Others think they are helping the troubled elephants in this way.The next time you see a piece of colorful abstract art, find out who the artist is.You just may be surprised at what you learn!17.What may most people think of animal art?18.What did elephants do in Thailands logging industry?19.How many elephants are there in Thailand today?20.What was Komar and Melamids idea to help the elephants in Thailand?21.Please list one reason why people buy elephant artworks.參考答案.16DBDADD712BCDCCC.主旨大意 在網(wǎng)絡時代,快速閱讀是很必要的一項技能,但是本文號召人們享受慢速閱讀,遠離電子設備,在安靜,放松的環(huán)境中閱讀,有規(guī)律的慢速閱讀習慣會使我們的思想更敏銳,提高注意力,減輕壓力,加深對別人的理解,號召人們在空閑時間享受慢速閱讀。13.C本段舉例說參加慢速閱讀這種使用腦子的活動會使我們老的時候避免少失憶,所以這些慢速閱讀的益處是被科學支持的。故選C。14.D根據(jù)第四段最后一句“Because of the Internet, he says, we have become very good at collecting a large number of interesting news, but we are also gradually forgetting how to sit back, think and relate all these facts to each other.”可知,因為網(wǎng)絡,我們擅長收集大量的有趣的新聞,但是我們也逐
