Which of the following is CORRECT? [br]
The Asian elephant is one of the world’s rarest animals. Unfortunately, its sad condition has not been as well publicized as that of the African elephant. This is because Asian elephant’s ivory supplies only a small percentage of the world ivory trade. In fact, we know very little about the Asian elephant. They live in the remote forests of southern Asia and it is therefore very difficult to study them.(12)Most knowledge of Asian elephants is from those that have been captured, or tamed.(11)Asian elephants are easier to same than African elephants. The elephants you see in the circuses and zoos are nearly always Asian.
(13)The major reason for the decline of Asian elephants is the harm to their forests. The huge increase in the human population has caused the destruction of the Asian forest for human population. As a result, the Asian elephants are compelled to scatter in different areas. Originally they lived all over the continent, but now there are only small isolated populations left. These isolated elephant populations are vulnerable to extinction.
While Asian elephants are threatened by illegal capture and detaining, they are also killed for ivory and skin. In July 1990, a British wildlife group uncovered a black market for elephant skin. Elephants are shot in the forest along the border between Thailand and Burma, and their skin was sold to factories in Bangkok. Their skin is made into shoes, belts, suitcases, wallets, etc. , to sell to tourists.
选项
A、Their taming for circuses and zoos.
B、The destruction of their natural homes.
C、Man’s lack of knowledge about their behavior.
D、The greater vulnerability to extinction than other species.
答案
B
解析
理解推断题。从句(13)可知,亚洲象数量减少的原因是人类对森林的破坏,而森林正是亚洲象的自然柄息地,因此B为正确选项。
