Elephants who paint aren’t new. Paintings by Ruby, an Asian elephant who lived at the Phoenix Zoo in Arizona, sold for up to $5,000 in the late 1980s, said Dick George, a consultant with the zoo.
"Ruby was about seven months old when she first came to the zoo", said George. "She lived with a goat and some chickens, but she didn’t have an elephant companion for a number of years. She spent a lot of time drawing in the dirt with a stick to make her days more stimulating. Her keeper bought her some art supplies". George said, ’, Ruby was excited about painting right from the beginning".
The elephants at the art academies in the Southeast Asia are taught to hold a paintbrush with the tip of their trunks. Initially, the keeper guides the elephant’s trunk over the canvas(画布) and offers rewards for good performance.
"It only takes a few hours to a day to teach them", said Mia Fineman, an art historian whose book When Elephants Paint is an illustrated history of the Asian Elephant Art and Conservation Project.
选项
A、who was sold for a price as high as $5,000
B、who was famous for being the first painting elephant
C、whose paintings sold for as high as $5,000
D、who started painting in the late 1980s
答案
C
解析
每一道阅读理解题在文章中都有其所依据的句子,做阅读题的关键是首先就要找到每一道题的依据句,然后才能判断这道题的正确选项。本题的依据句是文章的第二句话。应该注意,本句的主语是Paintings by Ruby,而不是an Asian elephant。所以A项选择不正确。B和D项选择都包含了在文章中没有出现的信息,所以也不正确。而C项选择的意思与依据句完全一致。
