The home of the elephant is in the deep forest. It is the largest of all land animals, and is found both in Asia and Africa.

They make many parts almost dark, while bright sunlight is above and around them.
Living habits
The elephant likes the deep part and the coolest places of the forest. There he will stand swinging his ears, to drive away the flies; or he will pull down a branch (树枝) from a tree to fan himself. He likes bathing, and to be near

How people treat them
In Asia the elephant is trained to work. At one time the African elephant also was trained. Soldiers in ancient times often went to fight on the backs of African elephants. But now the elephant that lives in Africa is illegally (非法地) hunted mainly for its valuable ivory. In order to protect them,

We would go after him, expecting him to keep falling, but he never fell.” Muniz’s gym
teacher added, “He is challenging the social norms (标准). When he arrived there, no one believed in
him.” But he showed to everyone that he could play as well as any other boy. So he was invited to go to Spain to show his talent.
The Spanish La Liga soccer club has offered to fly Muniz to Spain in September, where he’ll be able to show off his “fancy footwork” and meet his idol, Barça soccer player Lionel Messi.

阅读下面短文，完成 51 至 54 题。
“I’ve always had a pretty clear idea of what I want to do.” says Mary, a middle school student who
wants to become a director some day. You may not be as sure of your career (职业) as Mary. But you can start thinking about and planning for your future career.
The following article helps middle school students plan for careers.
Explore (探索) your interests
Many middle school students don’t yet know what they want to do. But in fact, students may change their minds several times, perhaps even after they enter society. And some of tomorrow’s
careers might not exist (存在) today. Focusing on just one job in middle school isn’t necessary. But
looking into the kinds of careers you might like can help you succeed.
①           
Understanding what you enjoy and what you’re good at is the most important step in exploring careers. If you don’t know what you want to do, you should ask yourself what you like to learn about. If you really like science, what do you enjoy about it — the lab work or the research? It’s important to think about what you like to do, because work will finally be a big part of your life.
Discover possible careers
Once you’ve thought about the subjects and activities you like best, the next step is to look for careers that put those interests to use. If you love sports, for example, you might consider a career as a P.E. teacher or a soccer coach. If you like English, a career as an English teacher, a translator or a travelling guide might be a good choice.
②           
After discovering possible jobs, you’ll want to learn more about them. Talking directly to workers on the phone, by email, or through online discussion can help you get information about what they do. Even meeting with them in person is helpful. First-hand information is necessary for you to find out if you’ll really like a career.
51. 选择最佳句子补全文章，将字母代号填写在答题卡上。其中有一项是多余的。
A.Learn about yourself                 B.Get experience             C.Do your research

阅读下面短文，完成 55 至 60 题。
The Chongyang Festival falls on the ninth day of the ninth lunar month and is also called the Double Ninth Festival. As both the month and the day are nine, it got this name. To celebrate the day,
people usually climb mountains and enjoy chrysanthemum (菊花), so the festival is also known as
the Height Ascending (登高) Festival or the Chrysanthemum Festival. In China, nine has the similar
pronunciation with the word “forever”, meaning long life. So the Chinese government set the day as the Seniors’ Day.
