Language points
1. Our first flag had a white elephant on it.
我们的第一面国旗上就(绘)有一头白象。
had为动词have的过去式形式，表示“曾经有；过去有”。意味着“现在(泰国)国旗上已不再有白象了”。
词语链接
2. People say that “an elephant never forgets”.
人们说“大象从来不会忘记”。
大象的记忆力出众，我们人类望尘莫及。因此大凡说到记忆力，英美人士往往用大象来进行比喻。如：
Jack never forgets anything. He has a memory like an elephant.
杰克从来不忘事，他的记忆力好得惊人。
(杰克从来不往事，他的记忆力像大象一样好。)
3. Elephants can walk for a long time and
never get lost.
大象能够长时间行走而且从不迷路。
lost作为形容词，表示“走失的；迷路
的；失散的”、“丢失的；遗失的”，常与系动词get或be一同构成短语，表示“丢失；走失；迷路”。例如：
What bad luck! My keys are lost again.
真是倒霉！我的钥匙又丢了。
I got lost on my way here and had to ask the police for help. 我来这儿时路上迷了路，不得不找警察帮忙。
2) lost还经常直接用于名词之前，作定语修饰名词。例如：
a lost child 走丢了的孩子
the lost tourists 迷了路的游客们
a lost bag 被人遗失的包
4. 根据汉语提示补全英语句子，每空一词。
But elephants are ___ _____ _______.
但是大象面临巨大的危险。
【解析】
(be) in danger表示“面临危险”。如：
Firefighters are often in great danger.
消防员常常处于很危险的境地。
句子链接
in great danger
英语中，常用形容词big或great与danger搭配，表示“巨大的危险”。(be) out of danger表示“脱离危险”。如：
The doctors say he’s now out of danger.
大夫们说现在他脱离了危险。
5.根据汉语提示补全英语句子，每空一词。
We must save the trees and not buy things ______ ___ ivory.
我们必须拯救树木，拒买象牙制品。
【解析】
made of…表示“由……制作(制造)”。如：
made of wood 由木头制成
made of glass 由玻璃制作
made of
当made of…作定语限定修饰名词时，必须放在该名词之后。语法将其称作“后置定语”。如：
a boat made of paper 一条纸叠的小船
things made of bamboo
竹制品；竹子做的东西
6. 下面句子有一处错误，请找出并改正。
I am tired, because I want to relax.
_______________
【解析】
so和because都是连词，可用来连接两个表示因果关系的句子，但so引导的分句表示
结果，而because引导的分句表示原因。
because改为so
【拓展】
英语中，because和so不可出现在同一个句子中，但它们引导的句子可互相转换。
如：
My mother is ill, so I can’t go to the park with you.
= I can’t go to the park with you, because my mother is ill.
7. 有关3,000和10,000的读法
3,000可使用thousand一词(表示“千”)，读作three thousand.
英语中没有单独的词汇表达“万”的概念，必须通过“thousand”转换表述。例如：
100,0000则只能使用thousand，读作:
one hundred thousand.
