Unit 5 Why do you like pandas ( Section B 2a-2c)
Culture
泰国是世界上产象大国，被称为“象之国”。大象，被泰国人视为国宝，是他们最忠实的朋友。自古以来，大象在泰国人的心中就是胜利、昌盛、吉祥的象征。早在大城王朝时期，在一次泰缅之战中，数百头大象载人上阵冲杀，头拱脚踢，很快打败缅军，成为泰国历史上辉煌的一页。聪明能干的大象不但在生产和生活中发挥作用，而且在兴盛的旅游业里扮演重要角色。它们的精彩表演，给游人带来乐趣和享受。虽然泰国人崇拜大象，但是大象仍然遭受着迫害。如今大象数量锐减，到了濒危状态，登记在册的只有3800多头，而1000多头野生大象更是受到严格保护。
