24、a, the elephant has been an important part of the culture, economy and religion. And nowhere more so than in Thailand. Unlike its African cousin, the Asian elephant is easily domesticated (驯化).The rare so-called white elephants have actually lent the power of royalty to its rulers, and until the 192

25、0s the national flag was a white elephant on a red background. To the early Western visitors, the countrys romantic name was “Land of the White Elephant”.Today, however, the story is very different. Out of work and out of land, the Thai elephant struggles for survival in a nation that no longer need

26、s it. The elephant has found itself more or less deserted by previous owners who have moved on to a different economic world and a society in the western part. And while the elephants problems began many years ago, now it has a very low national advantage.How does the national symbol turn into ignor

27、ed animals? It is a story of worse environment and the changing lives of the Thais themselves. According to Richard Lair, Thailands expert on the Asian elephant and author of the report Gone Astray, at the turn of the last century, there may well have been as many as 100,000 national elephants in th

This was at a time when 90 percent of Thailand was still foresta habitat that not only suppor

29、ted the animals but also made them necessary to carry goods and people. Nothing ploughs through thick forest better than lots of sure-footed elephants. By 1950 the elephant population had dropped, but still to the number of 13,397. However, today there are probably no more than 3,800, with another 1

30、,350 wandering free in the national parks. But now, Thailands forest covers only 20 percent of the land. This deforestation (采伐森林) is the central point of the elephants difficult situation, for it has effectively put the animals out of work. This century, as the road network grew, the elephants role

31、 as a beast of burden decreased.41. What can we know about African elephants from the passage?A. It is easy to domesticate them.B. It is hard to domesticate them.C.
