20.Students usually have two long holidays a year,but have you heard elephants have holidays?
The Indian elephants from a temple are sent on a north-long holiday with massages(按摩) and baths to relax.The 64elephants will be fed with a lot of food,enough for them to put on 700~800pounds.
A temple veterinarian said that those Indian elephants would be treated after spending a month walking on roads,living on leaves and bananas and giving shows during lots of temple festivals.Their daily diet includes special rice and other special food,which are very nutritious and can make them healthy and strong.All of these are made by professional people.
This treatment will also calm them down ahead of a busy work schedule in upcoming events later in the year where they are the main attractions.The special holiday has cost the temple about£12,500,but extra money is ready for being used to treat the animals.
Indians believe that doing something good to elephants can help them get wisdom and power.Having elephants is a traditional symbol of honor for temples across southern India.All temples,however,never buy their elephants.The elephants were donated by people.

11.Well,parents,surprise!Lots of us are using Twitter and Facebook to find rides,and not just to school.It's awkward to call a friend and ask for a ride,and half the time they'll say,"Sorry,my car is full."But with Twitter,you just tweet#AshleysPoolParty and look for other people heading the same way.
It may sound risky,but many teens stay within their own social circles to find rides,and don't branch out beyond friends of friends when asking on Twitter.For me,I only rideshare with people I know,but to some young people,especially those taking longer trips,stranger danger is less of a concern.
The sharing economy got big during the recession(經(jīng)濟衰退).It allows people to access more goods and services using technology,while also allowing them to share cost.And that technology,for me,is what the car was for my mom,a gateway to more freedom.
According to the researchers at the University of Michigan,30 years ago,eight in ten American 18-year-olds had a driver's license.Today it's six in ten.So it's not that surprising that on my 16th birthday I wasn't rushing to get a license.All I wanted was an iPhone.Juliet Schor (Sociology professor at Boston College) knows people my age love being connected and for young people driving means they have to disconnect from their technology,and that's a negative.So if they could sit in the passenger side and still be connected,that's going to be a plus.
To me,another plus is ridesharing represents something much bigger than trying to save money.I see it as evidence that people still depend on each other.My generation shares their cars and apartments the way neighbors used to share cups of sugar.For the system to work,some of us still need our own cars.But until I get my own version of the silver Super Beetle,you can find me on Twitter.
66.The writer usually rideshares withB.
A.a(chǎn)nyone heading the same way      B.people he knows
C.friends of friends               D.strangers of his age
67.Fewer young people choose to ride by themselves becauseD.
A.driving means offering free rides to others.
B.getting a driving license becomes more difficult.
C.driving one's own cars causes a negative impression.
D.driving makes them disconnected from technology.
68.We can conclude from the passage thatC
A.the writer rideshares just to save money
B.people under 18 are not allowed to drive
C.silver Super Beetle is the writer's favorite
D.the older generation had to fight for freedom
69.Which is the best title for the passage?A
A.Teens use Twitter to thumb rides.
B.Tips on reducing risks in ridesharing.
C.Car is no longer a gateway to freedom.
D.New generation knows how to save money.
