【分析】
本文主要讲述在印度的文化中，动物被以一种特别的方式对待，并列举了大象和奶牛两个例子。
30．
句意：例如：许多大象不是野生的，而是被驯养起来。与后句的“domesticated”（被驯养）相对的应是“野生的”，wild符合语境，形容词作表语。故填wild。
31．
句意：每一头干活的大象都有自己的饲养员。根据空后的“its own keeper”结合句意可知，每一头干活的大象都有自己的饲养员，have符合语境；every elephant是第三人称单数，谓语动词用三单形式。故填has。
32．
句意：事实上，它们的关系在大象的余生中持续了大约40年。由“An elephant and its keeper meet for the first time when they are both young, and they grow up together.”可知，他们之间的关系在大象的整个生命当中都会一直存在，life符合语境；由“ the elephant’s”可知，空处用单数。故填life。
33．
句意：许多大象在森林里工作，当沉重的树木被砍伐时，它们会搬运它们。根据文中的“Lots of elephants work in the forest …”及“when they are cut down.”可以推测出此处指“树木”，tree符合语境，由“they”可知，空处用复数。故填trees。
34．
句意：有的供游客乘坐，有的在庆典和节日期间载客。根据空前的“Some give rides to tourists”及or可推断，空处应填动词原形；这里的some指的是“一些大象”，根据“people during celebrations and festivals”可知，此处指“载人”，carry符合语境。故填carry。
35．
句意：饲养员对大象照顾得很好，喂得很好，在一天的工作结束时给它们洗澡。根据上文的“Keepers take excellent care of their elephants”可推断，饲养者精心照顾大象，喂养得很好，用副词well修饰动词feeding。故填well。
36．
句意：印度的另一种特殊动物是牛。上文讲述的是大象，此处提到印度的另一种特殊的动物是奶牛（cow），开始讲另一种动物，用 another（另一；又一），且位于句首，首字母大写。故填Another。
37．
句意：奶牛是受保护的动物，所以它们不会被饲养在农场或被杀死作为食物，尽管人们确实使用它们的牛奶。文中提到“Cows are protected animals”可知，在印度，奶牛是受保护的动物，所以它们不会被饲养在农场或是被杀了吃肉，前后是因果关系。故填so。
38．
句意：所以在印度，你经常可以看到牛在城镇里走来走去，没有人设法去控制它们。由“you can often see cows walking around towns and cities”可知，应是没人会设法去控制它们”，try to do意为“设法做某事”。故填to control。
39．
句意：如果它们坐在路中间，人们通常会开车绕过它们。分析句子，空处不缺成分，由此推断，应填副词作状语；根据上文可知，保护奶牛在印度享有自由，所以遇到奶牛坐在路中间的情况，人们通常会开车绕过它们，用usual对应的副词usually“通常地”。故填usually。
40．D
41．B
42．E
43．C
44．F

六．One possible version:
Many kinds of plants and animals are in danger now. We should try our best to protect them well.
More and more plants and animals are dying out because they lost their living places or couldn’t find enough food. People cut down trees or kill animals to make money. Some factories pollute the rivers and lakes. That’s the reason why plants and animals are in danger.
