23、The animal kingdom lost a beloved friend when poachers（偷猎者）in Kenya killed the world famous elephant named Satao solely for his ivory（象牙）, experts say.

Satao was considered by some to be the largest and oldest elephant left in Africa. His tusks having grown long enough to reach the ground. Wandering around Kenya’s Tsavo National Park, he was easily recognizable（可辨认的）by staff and visitors. Sadly, despite conservation efforts, he was killed on May 30, his body identified by park staff on June 2. His head was severely damaged and there were two holes left where his great tusks had

“There is no doubt that Satao is dead, killed by an ivory poacher’s poisoned arrow to feed the seemingly greedy demand for ivory in far off countries,” wrote Richard Moller of The Tsavo Trust. “A great life lost so that someone far away can have a trinket（饰品）.

Satao isn’t the first elephant—and far from the last—to pay the ivory price. Just last month, Mountain Bull, another Kenyan elephant, was killed by poachers.

Kenya Wildlife Service（KWS）says 97 elephants and 20 rhinos have been killed this year, but others say the real numbers are much higher.

The national park in which Satao lived is roughly 386 square miles—a massive land for already thinly-stretched resources to cover. Reports indicate that Satao had started to migrate towards the park’s border-areas known by conservationists（野生保护人士）to be highly active for poaching.

In the late 1960s, more than 275,000 elephants lived in Kenya. Now, that number has dropped to around 38,000, and continues to fall fast.

“If Satao’s death can cause the focus on what’s actually happening here in terms of poaching, then he won’t have died in vain,” said nature documentarian Mark Decble, according to The Dodo.

【1】What is the main idea of the passage?

A. Satao is the largest and oldest elephant.

B. Many wild animals are killed in Kenya every year.

A. He had a pair of remarkable tusks.

B. He was the most popular animal in the park.

C. He used to be the largest elephant in the world.

D. He tried to escape from Kenya’s Tsavo National Park.

【3】When Satao was found by the park staff   .

A. he was just at his last gasp   B. he was barely recognizable

C. he was bleeding seriously   D. his trunk（象鼻）was cut away

【4】What is the author’s attitude towards Satao?

24、There are some strange and wonderful rules in law books around the world. When you are traveling, it’s always best to know before you go. Not only could this keep you out of trouble, but it can also help you get the most out of your holiday.

In Milan, Italy, citizens are required to smile at all times, except during funerals or hospital visits.

In England, it is illegal to die in the Houses of Parliament. This was voted the most ludicrous law in the UK in 2007. A spokesman for the House of Commons said: “The people who know about these things here say there is no basis for such a law, not to say it does not exist somewhere in writing.”

In Canada, by law, one out of every five songs on the radio must be sung by a Canadian.

Flushing（冲洗）the toilet after 10pm is illegal in Switzerland. The Government consider it noise pollution.
