I recalled learning its story from an article entitled “Bangkoks Little Elephant” that I read in one of my primary school textbooks. The article told about a smart elephant that not only dragged a car out of the mud, but also cleaned the vehicle with water it had fetched with its long trunk. From then on, the very mention of Thailand has reminded me of images of elephants.We arrived at Bangkok at 9 pm. We could find lots of elephant sculptures and other souvenirs featuring the animal Thailands national symbol in shops and roadside stalls.The only place I saw real elephants in the Thai capital was at Siam Niramit. In this show of Thailands history and cultural diversity, actors rode two elephants onto the stage. But I didnt have enough time for a picture with them before leaving the theater.It wasnt until two days later that we were able to take a closer look at Thai elephants. During our stay in Chiang Mai in the north, we visited the Measa Elephant Camp, some 20 minutes drive from the city center. The camp is home to 78 elephants. When we arrived there in early morning, many black elephants, some with creamy white tusks, were enjoying their daily bath in the river.In the Thai Buddhist culture, rare white elephants are believed to be sacred animals. Whenever a white elephant is captured, it must be presented to the king.In the past, elephants served as weapons in north Thailand. Later, elephants were employed to transport logs from the mountains. At last, the local people started to train the elephants to perform for tourists.At Measa, we were amazed by the elephants skills. They could not only play football, but also paint wonderful pictures with their trunks.At the end of the Thailand tour, everybody in the group rushed to purchase elephant sculptures, toys, ornaments and Tshirts. I was no exception. The elephantpendant key chains I bought turned out to be popular gifts for my colleagues.语篇解读：自从作者在小学课本上学到了曼谷小象这篇文章后，每当提到泰国，作者必然会联想到大象。1What is the purpose of the first paragraph?ATo tell us the story of the writers childhood.BTo describe a lovely and helpful elephant.CTo explain why the writer linked elephants with Thailand.DTo explain why the writer went to Thailand.解析：选C。推理判断题。通读文章第一段再结合下文的内容可知，作者写第一段意在交代为什么自己会把泰国和大象联系到一起，以展开下文的叙述，故答案为C。2There are many elephant sculptures in Bangkok in that _.ABangkok is the capital cityBpeople like elephantsCthe elephant is the symbol of Thailand Dthey can attract tourists解析：选C。细节理解题。根据第二段第二句中的“Thailands national symbol”可知，曼谷之所以有很多大象雕塑是因为大象是泰国的象征。3The writer took a closer look at Thai elephants in _.ABangkok BSiam NiramitCsouth Thailand DMeasa Elephant Camp解析：选D。细节理解题。根据第四段可知，作者近距离地看大象是在距市中心20分钟车程的Measa Elephant Camp这个地方。4Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?AThe writer saw real elephants when he was in primary school.BThe writer could often see elephants on Bangkoks busy streets.CBlack elephants are considered sacred animals.DElephants can be trained to do something skillfully.解析：选D。细节理解题。此题可采用排除法来做。根据第一段可知，A项与作者儿时只是在书中读到有关大象的故事的事实不符。根据第三段的“The only place I saw real elephants in the Thai capital was at Siam Niramit”可知B项错误。根据第五段可知在泰国应该是白象代表着神圣，C项也错误。故答案为D。根据倒数第二段也可以得出答案。5From the passage, we can infer that _.Atourists are fond of things related to elephantsBelephants are no longer important in Thailand nowadaysCthe writer finally saw the Bangkoks little elephantDelephants are believed to be sacred animals解析：选A。推理判断题。通读全文尤其是文章的最后一段的“泰国之游结束后人们都争相购买大象纪念品，我也不例外”可推知，游客很喜欢与大象有关的物品。BSydney has a huge bus system that covers the whole Sydney.
