Question

I.Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions:

An elephant does not work mechanically, like many other animals. He never stops

learning because he is always thinking. Not even really a good sheep dog can

compare with an elephant in intelligence. An elephant never forgets. His little

actions reveal an intelligence which finds in prompt solutions for new difficulties.

If he cannot reach with his trunk some part of his body that itches, he does not rub

it against a tree, he may pick up a long stick and give himself a good stretch with

that instead. If he pulls up some grass, and it comes up by the roots with a lump of

earth, he will smack it against his foot until all the earth is shaken off, or, if the
