It is easy for us to tell our friends from our enemies. But can other animals do the same? Elephants can! They can use their sense of vision and smell to tell the difference between people who pose a threat and those who do not.
In Kenya, researchers have found that elephants react differently to clothing worn by men of the Maasai and Kamba ethnic groups. Young Maasai men spear animals and thus pose a threat to elephants; Kamba men are mainly farmers and are not a danger to elephants.
In an experiment conducted by animal scientists, elephants were first presented with clean clothing or clothing that had been worn for five days by either a Maasai or a Kamba man. When the elephants detected the smell of clothing worn by a Maasai man, they moved away from the smell faster and took longer to relax than when they detected the smells of either clothing worn by Kamba men or clothing that had not been worn at all.
Garment color also plays a role, though in a different way. In the same study, when the elephants saw red clothing not worn before, they reacted angrily, as red is typically worn by Maasai men. Rather than running away as they did with the smell, the elephants acted aggressively toward the red clothing.
The researchers believe that the elephants’ emotional reactions are due to their different interpretations of the smells and the sights. Smelling a potential danger means that a threat is nearby and the best thing to do is run away and hide. Seeing a potential threat without its smell means that risk is low. Therefore, instead of showing fear and running away, the elephants express their anger and become aggressive.

A. Maasai people are a threat to elephants.
B. Kamba people raise elephants for farming.

35. How did the elephants react to smell in the study?
A. They attacked a man with the smell of new clothing.
B. They needed time to relax when smelling something unfamiliar.
C. They became anxious when they smelled Kamba-scented clothing.
D. They were frightened and ran away when they smelled their enemies.
36. What is the main idea of this passage?
A. Elephants attack people who wear red clothing.
B. Elephants use sight and smell to detect danger.
C. Scientists are now able to control elephants’ emotions.
D. Some Kenyan tribes understand elephants’ emotions very well.
37. What can be inferred about the elephant’s behavior from this passage?
A. Elephants learn from their experiences.
B. Elephants have sharper sense of smell than sight.
C. Elephants are more intelligent than other animals.
D. Elephants tend to attack rather than escape when in danger.
Not many were surprised when Dustin Sherrard was chosen, among a team of five, to represent Ontario at WorldSkills Competition in Leipzig, Germany this year.
The event, once known as the Skill Olympics, symbolizes the top of excellence in professional training where young skilled people from around the world compete in the skills of their various jobs measured against demanding international standard, which is hard to reach.
The 21-year-old, who grew up in Englehart, Ont, didn’t get a medal but the experience did wonders for his confidence. Sherrard had passion for carpentry (木工) and showed promise at a very young age. “I first got interested in woodmaking when I was in Grade 10,” he says. “I had taken wood shop before but it never became a hobby of mine until my school started to get hard wood into the shop classes.”
“I realized how much fun woodworking was and took all the wood-shop classes I could and started spending time in the shop after school,” he says. “I got a summer job working with my uncle and used most of the money I made to buy woodworking tools and quickly turned my dad’s little shop into my own woodworking shop.” His skills and knowledge were sharpened and tested in the woodworking program.
All this went a long way in preparing him for full-time employment and taught him what to expect when he started working.
“The biggest challenge to secure a good job with my training and skill set would be to keep up with all the different products and new designs,” he says. “I have only been in the industry for a few years but even my boss, who has been doing this for many years, is still learning new things all the time.”
Sherrard’s passion for his skill has brought him this far but his thirst for learning keeps pushing him further. He’s already planning to go back to school to study engineering.
34. What can we know about WorldSkills Competition?
A. It provides professional training.
B. It is a top event for skilled youth.
C. It is held in Germany every four years.
D. It is a competition for skilled carpenters.
35. How well did Dustin Sherrard do in the competition?
A. He stood out. B. He lost confidence.
C. He failed to get a medal. D. He got praised.
36. What made Dustin Sherrard love woodworking?
A. Fame. B. Confidence. C. Honour. D. Interest.
37. What might Dustin Sherrard do next?
A. Find a better job. B. Return to school to study.
