A
Elephants are the largest living animals on land. For a long time, they are very helpful. They carry big trees, take people from place to place, and are even used as "living tanks(坦克) " in wars(战争). People work with elephants for ages, but they do not know elephants well enough. People don't think it's easy to hurt an elephant because its skin is thick and hard In fact, that's wrong. Sometimes, even though(即使)its skin is thick-up to 2.5 cm, a needle(针)can also be very dangerous for the elephant.
People say elephants are afraid of mice. This is wrong, too. In fact, elephants have very poor eyesight(视力)，so they usually cannot see a mouse even if one comes very close to them. If a person has a good memory, people will say that he has an e1ephant memory. But up to now, no study shows that elephants have a better memory than other animals.
People also believe that when it is time for elephants to die, they will hide themselves in a so-called所谓的)" elephant graveyard(墓地)" Often, hunters try to find such places to get ivories(象牙)，but few people really find places like that. In fact, when elephants are old or get sick, they will stay in deep and secret caves(洞穴)until they get better or die.
