where they ran for safety That didn t stop the elephant It destroyed a dozen houses and injured several people The villagers were scared and angry Then someone suggested calling Parbati the elephant princess Parbati Barua s father was a hunter of tigers and an elephant tamer 驯兽者 He taught Parbati to ride an elephant before she could even walk He also taught her the dangerous art of the elephant round up how to catch wild elephants Parbati hasn t always lived in the jungle After a happy childhood hunting with her father she was sent to boarding school in the city But Parbati never got used to being there and many years later she went back to her old life Life in the city is too dull Catching elephants is an adventure and the excitement lasts for days after the chase she says But Parbati doesn t catch elephants just for fun My work she says is to rescue man from the elephants and to keep the elephants safe from man And this is exactly what Parbati has been doing for many years Increasingly the Indian elephant is angry for many years illegal hunters have attacked it and its home in the jungle has been reduced to small pieces of land It is now fighting back Whenever wild elephants enter a tea garden or a village Parbati is called to guide the animals back to the jungle before they can kill The work of an elephant tamer also involves love and devotion A good elephant

B How many men do housework Recently a European Commission tried to find out people s ideas and reactions to the women s movement As part of their survey 调查 they asked many men and women the question Who does the housework The men answered very differently from the women The housework they asked people about were preparing meals washing dishes cleaning the house and babysitting 48 of British husbands said they did these things 37 of Danish men helped in the house But only 15 of Italian men said they did the housework many of them said they never helped at all But there was an interesting point of view from the wives According to British wives only 38 of their husbands helped in the house And Italian wives said that their husbands hardly ever helped The Italian and British men did not tell the truth The Commission found that Danish men were the most trustful husbands their answers were the same as their wives answers Do the men you know help in the house Do you think the survey gives a true picture in your experience Write and tell us what you think 55 The survey was carried out in A BritainB EuropeC Denmark D Italy 56 The subject for the survey is A how many boys do the

happening some distance away Here s an example A woman was ironing clothes Suddenly she screamed My father is dead I saw him sitting in the chair Just then a telegram came The woman s father died of a heart attack He died sitting in a chair There are thousands of stories like this one on record Scientists are studying them to find out what s behind these strange mental messages Here s another example one of hundreds of dreams that have come true A man dreamed he was walking along a road when a horse and carriage came by The driver said There s room for one more The man felt the driver seemed dead so he ran away The next day when the man was getting on a crowded bus the bus driver said There s room for one more Then the man saw that the driver s face was the same face he had seen in the dream He wouldn t get on the bus As the bus drove off it crashed and burst into flames Everyone was killed Some people say stories like these are coincidences Others including some scientists say

impossible 60 By studying ESP scientists may get to A learn how people tell lies B know more about human dreams C know more about human mind D learn how strange things happen 61 In the last paragraph

asked a person to sell the house for us he had refused to show it because of the bats Bats are popular Patrick comforted me They are ecological Isn t there a machine you can buy that produces high frequency sounds to keep bats away I don t know said Patrick But I like bats and whoever buys this house will probably like them too Probably I hated that word How many bats are there anyway I counted about 90 last night said Patrick They were dropping out from under the edge of the roof You mean there are more outside They re everywhere Dad But look at it this way When the cold weather comes they ll be off to Mexico Maybe in the spring we can keep them out Don t worry about it he said for the hundredth time It s not a problem The bat expert I called was even more active than Patrick I think you ve got a large number there he said in wonder I ve been trying to attract bats to our house for 25 years A single bat ears up his weight in mosquitoes and black flies three times every night You ve a very lucky man I offered to share my luck with him He could take them away Bats have a remarkable homing instinct 本能 he said They d fly straight back even if I transported them 100 miles Once they have settled you can t stop them from coming back I was silent Finally we managed to rent the house to a young family who were also interested in buying it What about the bats I said to Patrick
