     Thai Elephant Day-Thailand
     Thai Elephant Day is a national holiday in Thailand.Thai Elephant Day has been celebrated on March 13th of every year since 1998.Because the elephant is the national animal of Thailand，it is highly respected and treasured.During the festivals elephants are honored during a ceremony in which they are fed bananas，other fruit，and sugarcane.

• 2．Too many people want others to be their friends，but they don't give friendship back．That is why some friendships don't last very long．To have a friend，you must learn to treat your friend the way you want your friend to treat you．Learning to be a good friend means learning three rules：be honest，be generous （寬宏大量的），be understanding．
     Honesty is where a good friendship starts．Friends must be able to trust one another．If you don't tell the truth，people usually find out．If a friend finds out that you haven't been honest，you may lose your friend's trust．Good friends always count on one another to speak and act honestly．
     Generosity means sharing and sharing makes a friendship grow．You don't have to give your lunch money or your clothes，or enjoy，like our hobbies and your interests．Naturally you will want to share your ideas and feelings．These can be very valuable to a friend．They tell your friend what is important to you．By sharing them you help your friend know you better．
     Sooner or later everyone needs understanding and help with a problem．Something may go wrong at school．Talking about the problem can make it easier to solve．Turning to a friend can be a first step in solving the problem．So to be a friend you must listen and understand．You must try to put yourself in your friend's place so you can understand the problem better．
     No two friendships are ever exactly alike （相同的）．But all true friendships have three things in common．If you plan to keep your friendships，you must practice honesty，generosity and understanding．

• 3．When students and parents are asked to rate subjects according to their importance ，the arts are unavoidably at the bottom of the list．Music is nice，people seem to say，but not important．Too often it is viewed as mere entertainment，but certainly not an education priority（優(yōu)先）．This view is shortsighted．In fact，music education is beneficial and important for all students．
     Music tells us who we are．Because music is an expression of the beings who create it，it reflects their thinking and values，as well as the social environment it came from．Rock music represents a lifestyle just as surely as does a Schubert song．The jazz influence that George Gershwin and other musicians introduced into their music is obviously American because it came from American musical traditions．Music expresses our character and values．It gives us identity as a society．
     Music provides a kind of perception（感知）that cannot be acquired any other way．Science can explain how the sun rises and sets．The arts explore emotive（情感的） meaning of the same phenomenon．We need every possible way to discover and respond to our world for one simple but powerful reason：No one way can get it all．
     The arts are forms of thought as powerful in what they communicate as mathematical and scientific symbols．They are ways we human beings "talk" to each other．They are the language of civilization through which we express our fears，our curiosities，our hungers，our discoveries，our hopes．The arts are ways we give form to our ideas and imagination so that they can be shared with others．When we do not give children access to an important way of expressing themselves such as music，we take away from them the meanings that music expresses．
     Science and technology do not tell us what it means to be human．The arts do．Music is an important way we express human suffering，celebration，the meaning and value of peace and love．
     So music education is far more necessary than people to realize．
  
  （1）According to Paragraph 1，students

  ．
  A．view music as an overlooked subject
  B．disagree with their parents on education
  C．regard music as a way of entertainment
  D．prefer the arts to science
  （2）In Paragraph 2，the author uses jazz as an example to

  ．
  A．compare it with rock music
  B．show music identifies a society
  C．introduce American musical traditions
  D．prove music influences people's lifestyles
  （3）According to the passage，the arts and science

  ．
  A．a(chǎn)pproach the world from different angles
  B．explore different phenomena of the world
  C．express people's feelings in different ways
  D．explain what it means to be human differently
  （4）What is the main idea of the passage？

  
  A．Music education makes students more imaginative．
  B．Music should be of top education priority．
  C．Music is an effective communication tool．
  D．Music education deserves more attention．
