？Read the text below about the art of leadership—leading with a kind heart.
？In most of the lines 41—52 there is one extra word. It is either grammatically incorrect or does not fit in with the meaning of the text. Some lines, however, are correct.
？If a line is correct, write CORRECT on your Answer Sheet.
？If there is an extra word in the line, write the extra word in CAPITAL LETTERS on your Answer Sheet.
0 Leadership is not about getting to do what they want to. If they did what
00 they want, you wouldn't be needed as a leader. Instead, leadership is about getting
41 people to do what they don't want to do (or don't think they can do so)—and be
42 ardently committed to doing it. This paradox lies at the heart of all great leadership.
43 Unlike management, about which involves simply the care and feeding of your
44 organizational elephant, great leadership gets that elephant to jump up. Anyone
45 who knows anything about elephants knows about that they may run, they may
46 stand on their hind legs, and they may kneel on their fore legs, they may roll over;
47 but they don't jump. And that's what leadership is all about it: getting organizations
48 to do what they usually can't do, i.e., getting out great results consistently. Now,
49 you can't do the jumping yourself. The elephant must do it out. You can't push the
50 elephant into the air. It must jump out of its own volition. Making the elephant
51 jump involves that cultivating a special relationship between the leader and the
52 people of the organization. Many misunderstand that relationship. They try to use fear and pain to spur the activity needed to achieve consistently great results. "Sure, I'll get this elephant to jump. Just give me a cattle prod!" But inducing fear and pain are habit forming and ultimately destructive both to the leader and the people.

"Ruby was about seven months old when she first came to the zoo", said George. "She lived with a goat and some chickens, but she didn't have an elephant companion for a number of years. She spent a lot of time drawing in the dirt with a stick to make her days more stimulating. Her keeper bought her some art supplies". George said, ', Ruby was excited about painting right from the beginning".
The elephants at the art academies in the Southeast Asia are taught to hold a paintbrush with the tip of their trunks. Initially, the keeper guides the elephant's trunk over the canvas(画布) and offers rewards for good performance.
"It only takes a few hours to a day to teach them", said Mia Fineman, an art historian whose book When Elephants Paint is an illustrated history of the Asian Elephant Art and Conservation Project.
Ruby was an Asian elephant ______.
A．who was sold for a price as high as $5,000
B．who was famous for being the first painting elephant
C．whose paintings sold for as high as $5,000
D．who started painting in the late 1980s
Today, however, the story is very different. Out of work and out of land, the Thai elephant struggles for survival in a nation that no longer needs it. The elephant has found itself more or less abandoned by previous owners who have moved on to a different economic world and a westernized society. And while the elephant’s problems began many years ago, now it rates a very low national priority.
How this reversal from national icon (圣像) to neglected animal came about is a tale of worsening environmental and the changing lives of the Thais themselves. According to Richard Lair, Thailand’s experts on the Asian elephant and author of the report Gone Astray, at the turn of the century there may well have beenas many as 100,000 domestic elephants in the country. In the north of Thailand alone it was estimated that more than 20,000 elephants were employed in transport, 1,000 of them alone on the road between the cities of Chiang Mai and Chiang Saen. This was at a time when 90 per cent of Thailand was still forest—a habitat (栖息地) that not only supported the animals but also made them necessary to carry goods and people. Nothing ploughs through dense forest better than a massive but sure-footed elephant.
By 1950 the elephant population had dropped to a still substantial 13,397, but today there are probably nomore than 3,800, with another 1,350 roaming free in the national parks. But now, Thailand’s forest coversonly 20 per cent of the land. This deforestation (采伐森林) is the central point of the elephant’s difficult situation, for it has effectively put the animals out of work. This century, as the road network grew, so the elephant’s role as a beast of burden declined.

There are only two animals that have larger brains than man, the whale and the elephant. Yet, in proportion to his size, man's brain is larger. (19[C])Man's usually weighs about three pounds or a little more, and this is about one-fortieth of the weight of his whole body. The whale's body, on the other hand, is a thousand times heavier than its brain, while the elephant's body is about five hundred times as heavy.
But a man who has a large brain is not necessarily more intelligent than one whose brain is smaller. We know that geniuses have existed who have had very large brains, but there have been others whose brains were rather small. Idiots have been known to have very large brains.
(20[D])We do not understand precisely why some people are more intelligent than others. Whether our brains are relatively large or small is less important than that we try to do our very best.
This article is mainly about ______.
A．the weight of a whale's brain
B．the brains of geniuses
C．the size of a person's brain and his intelligence
D．the intelligence of the elephant
