共用题干第三篇Longer Lives for Wild ElephantsMost people think of zoos as safe places for animals,where struggles such as having difficulty finding food and avoiding predators（猛兽）don't exist. Without such problems,animals in zoos should live to a ripe （成熟的）old age.But that may not be true for the largest land animals on Earth.Scientists have known that elephants in zoos often suffer from poor health.Sometimes,they even become unable to have babies.To learn more about how captivity（圈养）affects elephants, a team of international scientists compared the life spans of female elephants born in zoos with female elephants living outdoors in their native lands. Zoos keep detailed records of all the animals in their care,documenting factors such as birth dates,illnes-ses,weight and death.These records made it possible for the researchers to analyze 40 years of data on 800 African and Asian elephants in zoos across Europe.The scientists compared the life spans of the zoo-born fe-male elephants with the life spans of thousands of wild female elephants in Africa and Asian elephants that work in logging camps（伐木场）, over approximately the same time period.The team found that female African elephants born in zoos lived an average of 16.9 years. Their wild counterparts who died of natural causes lived an average of 56 years一more than three times as long. Female Asian elephants followed a similar pattern. In zoos,they lived 18.9 years,while those in the logging camps lived 41.7 years.Scientists don't know yet why wild elephants seem to get on so much better than their zoo-raised coun-terparts.Georgia Mason,a biologist at the University of Guelph in Canada who led the study,thinks stress and obesity（肥胖症）may be to blame. Zoo elephants don't get the same kind of exercise they would in the wild,and most are very fat. Social lives of elephants are also much different in zoos than in the wild,where they live in large herds and family groups.The study raises some questions about acquiring more elephants to keep in zoos.While some threatened and endangered species living in zoos reproduce（生殖）successfully and maintain healthy populations,that doesn't appear to be the case with elephants.Unlike other animals in zoos,zoo-raised elephantsA:live a long lifeB:give birth to many babiesC:develop poor healthD:have difficulty getting food

问答题The celebrations of Easter have many customs and legends that have nothing to do with Christianity. Among various symbols associated with Easter, Easter bonny has been playing an important part. In pagan times, the “Easter hare” was no ordinary animal, but a sacred companion of the old goddess of spring, Eastre. The Easter bunny has its origin in pre-Christian fertility lore. The Hare and the Rabbit were the most fertile animals known and they served as symbols of the new life during the Spring season. Hares are animals which look like rabbits, but are larger and in many countries quite rare. In most places, the Easter rabbit (bunny) has replaced the Easter hare completely. Since long before Jesus Christ was born, parents told their children that the magic hare would bring them presents at the spring festival. The presents were often painted eggs, as these represented the new life starting at this time of year.
