Question

1．Once there was a man traveling in a faraway village．As he was passing the elephants，he suddenly stopped．He found that these huge elephants were being held by only a small rope tied to their front leg．No chains（鎖鏈），no cages．It was clear that the elephants could，at any time，break away from their ropes but for some reason，they did not．
He saw a trainer nearby and asked why these animals just stood there and didn't try to get away．"Well，"the trainer said，"when they are very young and much smaller we use the same size rope to tie them and，at that rage，it's enough to hold them．As they grow up，they still believe they cannot break away．They believe the rope can hold them，so they never try to break free．"
How could it be？These animals could at any time break free from their ropes．But because they always stuck right where they were，they believed they couldn't．
Just like the elephants，how many of us go through life believing that we cannot do something，just because we failed at it once before？
     ．We should never give up the struggle（掙扎） in life．

分析 翻譯：
從前有一個(gè)人在一個(gè)遙遠(yuǎn)的村子里旅行．當(dāng)他經(jīng)過大象時(shí)，他突然停下．他發(fā)現(xiàn)這些巨大的大象只被一根小繩子綁在他們的腿上．沒有鎖鏈，沒有籠子．顯然，大象可以隨時(shí)從繩索上掙脫，但有些原因，他們沒有．
他看到附近有一個(gè)教練，問為什么這些動(dòng)物只是站在那里，并沒有試圖逃離．"好吧，"教練說，"當(dāng)他們很小的時(shí)候，我們用同樣大小的繩子把它們綁住，在憤怒的時(shí)候，它能夠綁住它們．隨著他們的長大，他們?nèi)匀幌嘈潘麄儾荒苊撾x．他們相信繩子能綁住他們，所以他們從不試圖掙脫．"怎么可能？這些動(dòng)物可以隨時(shí)從他們的繩索中掙脫出來的．但是，因?yàn)樗麄兛偸菆?jiān)持他們的觀點(diǎn)，他們認(rèn)為他們不能逃脫．就像大象，
我們中的許多人都經(jīng)歷過這樣的生活，相信我們不能做某事，只是因?yàn)槲覀冊(cè)��?jīng)失敗過一次？失敗是學(xué)習(xí)的一部分．我們永遠(yuǎn)都不應(yīng)該在生活中放棄掙扎．

47．A．細(xì)節(jié)理解題． 根據(jù)語境As they grow up，they still believe they cannot break away．可知當(dāng)大象長大了，他們?nèi)匀徽J(rèn)為他們不能掙脫繩子，所以沒有想辦法擺脫繩子的束縛．故選：A
48．B．推理判斷題．根據(jù)語境How could it be？These animals could at any time break free from their ropes．可知大象長大了，能在在任何時(shí)候擺脫繩子，怎么能不掙斷繩子呢？故推斷此處他感到驚訝．故選：B
49．A．推理判斷題．根據(jù)語境We should never give up the struggle（掙扎） in life．可知在生活中失敗是常有的事，我們不應(yīng)放棄爭扎．故選：A
