The elephant was lying heavily on its side, fastasleep. A few dogs started barking at it. Theelephant woke up in a terrible anger: it chased thedogs into the village where they ran for safety.
That didn't stop the elephant. It destroyed a dozenhouses and injured several people. The villagers werescared and angry. Then someone suggested callingParbati, the elephant princess.

elephant before she could even walk. He also taught her the dangerous art of the elephantround - up – how to catch wild elephants.
Parbati hasn't always lived in the jungle. After a happy childhood hunting with her father, shewas sent to boarding school in the city. But Parbati never got used to being there and manyyears later she went back to her old fife. "Life in the city is too dull. Catching elephants is anadventure and the
excitement lasts for days after the chase," she says.

" And this is exactly what Parbati hasbeen doing for many years. Increasingly, the Indian elephant is angry : for many years, illegalhunters have attacked it and its home in the jungle has been reduced to small pieces of land- Itis now fighting back. Whenever wild elephants enter a tea garden or a village, Parbati is called toguide the animals back to the jungle be- fore they can kill.
The work of an elephant tamer also involves love and devotion. A good elephant tamer willspend hours a day singing love songs to a newly captured elephant. " Eventually they grow tolove their tamers and never forget them. They are also more loyal than humans, " she said, asshe climbed up one of her

Chinese consumers' crazy appetite for luxurygoods and services appears unstoppable, with just 2percent of the Chinese population responsible forone-third of the world's luxury items.
As China's economic miracle develops, the marketopportunities for all sorts of luxury goods andservices are increasing. Luxury consumption in Chinanow extends way beyond well - known car. Clothingand jewelry brands. For example, the luxury jetmarket ,n China is the fastest - growing in the world, even outstripping that of the UnitedStates, with a market share of 25 percent. This trend appears to
continue, with 20 to 30 percent growth expected in China, compared with only 2 to 3 percent inthe US. But more important, China's luxury jet market growth represents a major developmentin the private
consumption of luxury items.
China's high - quality red wine market also provides evidence of the growth in privateconsumption ofluxury goods. In 2013, China became the largest market for red? wine? in theworld, even overtakingthe French, with 1. 86 billion bottles consumed in China last year. Overthe past five years, China's redwine consumption has grown 136 percent.
According to my ongoing consumer research in this area while working at the University of
International Business and Economics in Beijing, public consumption of such expensive globalluxury brands such as Prada and Armani is easily explained by the desire to "gain face" andpublicly display socialclimbing through material possesses. On the other hand, it is "self-reward" that lies behind consumermotivation in this area Chinese consumer, who haveexperienced rapid financial and economic gainsappear particularly prone to the need to rewardthemselves for their success. But this has little to do with"gaining face" and impressing othersand much more to do with the need for personal contentment.
Finally, the growth in private luxury consumption in China is set to continue in part due to the
maturity of the Chinese consumer and advancement of Chinese consumer culture generally.
28. What do you think the author would most probably be?
A. A news reporter, B. An accountant.
C. A professor. D. A conductor.
29. The underlined word "outstripping" in Paragraph 2 probably means
______.
A. falling far behind of
B. going hand in hand
C. going far ahead of
D. keeping pace with
30. What can we learn from paragraph 2 and 3 ?
A. China's luxury jet market growth is only 2 to 3%.
B. French was once the largest market for red wine in the world before 2013.
C. The luxury jet market in the US shares 25% of the jet consumption in the world.
D. China's red wine consumption has increased to 1. 86 billion bottles since 2013.
31. What can be the best title for the passage?
A. Future Private Luxury Consumption in China
B. Chinese Appetite for Luxury Goods and Services

Even if trees cannot walk, they are still on the move.
In parts of the Arctic, entire forests are moving northward. Across Ac Arctic, temperatures arerising faster than anywhere else in Ac world. As that happens. Tie tree line that marks whereforests stop and the treeless tundra (冻土地带) starts has been shifting northward. Treesgrowing along the tree line must protect themselves from the cold wind. To do this, plantstend to grow horizontal ( 水平的) branches low to the ground. The energy it take, for trees togrow this way means they don't have enough energy to make seeds.
But as Earth's climate has been warming, trees no longer have to just grow horizontally. Manycan in. Stead grow up, toward Ac sky. This takes less energy. And with all that leftover energy.these trees have started producing more seeds. This happens especially in places where thewhite spruce( 白云杉) grows.
White spruce, which is a North American tree, is quite able to produce a lot of seeds, which canmove long distances in the wind. When wind - blown seeds end up on the tundra beyond Actree line, they eventually can sprout ( 发芽) new trees. This explains how a forest can move. Ofcourse. Ac process would work only if Ac tundra were warm enough. But in recent years, Acwhole
planet has been
warming.
New trees will provide shelters for some snow. Keeping the sun's rays from making the whitesurface disappear. Instead, the trees absorb the sun's heat. This warms the surrounding air.The extra warmth
encourages even more trees to produce seeds. That further boosts a forest's ability toexpand. In addition, more trees will trap more snow, preventing much of it from being blownaway. Snow can trap heat in the soil below, which encourages trees to grow. The recent rise oftemperature has helped more trees grow. The recent rise of temperature has helped moretrees grow past the tree line. People worry about impacts on the animals that depend on frozenconditions for food and shelter.
32. What is the main cause of the trees in the Arctic moving northward?
A. The shrinking of northern tundra. B. The rising temperature.
C. The fierce and cold wind.D. The abundant resources in the north.
33. What does the underlined word, "this" , in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. To produce more seeds. B. To move northward
C. To respond to the climate change. D. To protect themselves from the cold wind.
34. What can be inferred from the last paragraph^
A. New trees can trap the snow, which may make the soil colder.
B. The trapped snow prevents new trees from producing more seeds.
C. New trees can make the surrounding air warmer.
D. New trees can bring more food and shelter for local animals.
35. The passage is most probably taken from
A. a science reportB. a health report
C. a fashion magazine D. a children's magazine.

I hope my idea will be useful to you.
Yours Sincerely
