“The state of elephants”--
Thailand
“大象之邦”
大象是泰国的象征。它在泰国人的心目中占有极为重要的地位——泰国的历史、文化、宗教、经济等都与象有密切的联系。 在泰国,象的形象随处可见,上自国王下至百姓几乎人人爱象,对之情感深厚。
在古代,泰国人作战时,大象就如同战马一样。 战将们以大象为坐骑冲锋陷阵,君主则以白象作为御骑以增神威。古往今来白象成为泰国的镇国瑞兽,象征昌盛吉兆,在泰国地位特殊,被视为珍贵之物。
象与泰国
Hello, we are students from Thailand, and we want to save the elephants . The elephant is one of Thailand’s symbols. Our first flag had a white elephant on it .This is a symbol of good luck.
Elephants are smart animals. They can play soccer or music. They can also draw very well. People say that “an elephant never forgets”. Elephants can walk for a long time and never get lost. They can also remember places with food and water. This helps them to live.
But elephants are in great danger. People cut down many trees so elephants are losing their homes. People also kill elephants for their ivory. Today there are only about 3,000 elephants (over 100,000 before). We must save the trees and not buy thing made of ivory.
Remember that March 13th is Thailand Elephant Day.
