Brn in 1949, Diana Nyad develped an early interest in swimming and became a Flrida State High Schl swimming champin. Like many yung athletes, she dreamed f cmpeting in the Olympics, but a serius illness ruined her chance t qualify fr the Games. Hwever, the disappintment did nt stp her frm mving frward. Instead, she turned her fcus t marathn swimming. A naturally gifted athlete, Nyad was physically well-cnditined t endure lng perids in the water. As a lng-distance swimmer, she wuld cmpete nt nly against herself but als against bstacles such as distance, danger, cld, and exhaustin.
Over the next ten years, Nyad dedicated herself t becming ne f the wrld’s tp lng-distance swimmers. In 1970, she swam a ten-mile marathn in Lake Ontari, setting the wmen’s recrd fr that curse.

Nyad attempted t swim the distance between Flrida and Cuba in 1978. Thugh the stretch f water is less than 100 miles wide, it is rugh and dangerus. After battling the water fr tw days, she was frced t abandn the attempt t prtect her health and safety. Even s, she impressed the wrld with her curage and strng desire t succeed. Fr Nyad, the strength f her purpse mattered as much as reaching Cuba itself. “That was hw she defined success,” she later reflected: “It didn’t matter that my swim fell shrt— I believed I had already tuched the ther shre.”
T her, success was never just abut crssing a finish line — it was abut refusing t back dwn frm a dream. When Nyad eventually retired frm swimming, she cntinued t take n new challenges: traveling the wrld as a reprter, writing bks, and delivering public speeches abut her life jurney. Tday, Diana Nyad still wrks t inspire thers, just as she did when she swam the wrld’s mst daunting waters.

Tday, the number f Asian elephants seems t be ging up in sme places. By 2021, the elephant ppulatin in Sri Lanka was back t nearly 6,000. But there’s a bigger prblem: the human ppulatin has grwn even faster. Sri Lanka is abut 25,000 square miles, but it has almst 22 millin peple. That means elephants in Sri Lanka dn’t have much space t mve arund. The land they used t live n has been turned int twns and farms. S humans and elephants are fighting mre and mre. When elephants find farmers’ crps, the farmers ften lse a lt f mney. Smetimes, these fights even get dangerus.
It all cmes dwn t this riddle: Hw can an enrmus animal keep living well n a cntinent where space is nly getting mre limited? The answer might lie in understanding the elephants themselves, nt just as a species but as individuals.
Since January 2019, Sateesh Venkatesh, a graduate student wh is researching elephants, and his team have been giving the PVC-pipe test t elephants t bserve their prblem-slving styles. In the test, apples had been placed inside the pipes, and the elephants’ task was t get the apples ut. D elephants that apprached the pipe hesitantly als stay farther frm farmers’ fields? D the nes wh tre at the pipe frcefully als brave the firecrackers (鞭炮) and flashing lights the farmers set ff t scare them away at night?
If elephants wh are risk-takers can be identified, maybe the scientists will be able t figure ut hw t better keep them ut f farms and thus reduce cnflict with peple. Besides, learning all the different methds elephants emply t take dwn an electric fence wuld prbably be helpful fr designing better fences.
“It’s all very idealistic at this pint, I have t admit,” says Venkatesh. “But it’s a fresh apprach. When a child, fr example, is tld they can’t have the ckies, he still wants a ckie. But we dn’t put up an electric fence in the kitchen t prevent ur children. We cme up with nn-harmful, psitive ways t keep them away frm the ckies. I think we can d the same fr elephants.”
46. Why are humans and elephants fighting mre in Sri Lanka?
A. Asian elephants eat crps and destry farms.
B. Human ppulatin grws faster leaving elephants less space.
C. Elephants ften fight with humans ver living areas.
D. Sri Lanka’s climate changes making elephants mve areas.
47. What is the purpse f the PVC-pipe test cnducted by Sateesh Venkatesh’s team?
A. T check hw fast elephants find apples.
B. T test if pipes blck elephants.
C. T cmpare elephants’ eating habits.
D. T learn hw elephants slve prblems.
48. What can help reduce cnflict between humans and elephants accrding t the passage?
A. Drive risk-taking elephants away frm farms.
B. Identify risk-takers and design better fences.
C. Teach elephants t avid electric fences.
D. Stp using electric fences arund farms.
49. What des Venkatesh mean by cmparing elephants t children?
A. Guide elephants gently with safe methds, like kids.
B. Elephants need t learn rules, just like kids.
C. Electric fences dn’t wrk fr kids r elephants.
D. Bth need strict cntrl t stp bad behavir.
50. Which f the fllwing is the best title fr the passage?
A. Farms vs. Elephant Attacks in Sri Lanka Tday
B. Mre Elephants Nw Living in Sri Lanka Area
C. Elephants’ Prblem-Slving Skills in Pipe Tests
D. Reduce Human-Elephant Fights: Study Persnalities
