While no animals or people have been hurt during the trip, media reports have expected crop damage to be more than $I million. The elephants have broken into farms looking for food and water, visited a car 4S service centre and even showed up at a retirement home. At the home, some elephants tried to visit rooms, leading one man to hide under his bed.Sixteen animals started out in the group. But the government says two returned home and a baby was home during the walk. Officials in China say they are not sure exactly what persuaded the elephants to make their long trip. They do, however, seem to be drawn to corn, fruits and other tasty crops they find along the way. Some experts say the elephants might have left because their leader might have gotten lost. Asian elephants are loyal(忠诚的)to their home areas unless there are major changes to the environment. a loss of resources(资源)or development, said Nilanga Jayasinghe, of the World Wildlife Fund.“In this case, we don't really know why they left their home,”she told The Associated Press. She added that the area where they lived had seen major “habitat(栖息地)loss”linked to agriculture expansion(扩张). “What possibly happened here is that in their search for a new habitat, they got lost along the way and kept going,”Jayusinghe added.Elephants are given the top level of protection in China.

Don't try to force new relationships. Let relationships develop naturally, and don't do things just to make people like you. Be yourself,” Huhman advises. If you watched TV in the 1980s, you probably remember the Head & Shoulders advertisement warning. “You never get a second chance to make a first impression.”Now new research suggests that this isn't totally true, though the news isn't good for anyone who is trying to improve perceptions(看法),For a paper called “The Tipping(转变)Point of Moral Change:When Do Good and Bad Acts Make Good and Bad Actors?”published in Social Cognition, Nadav Klein and Ed O'Brien, psychological scientists at the University of Chicago ran several experiments designed to discover how quickly people are willing to change impressions.In one online study of 20I participants(参与者), an office worker known as "Barbara"started off neutrally(无明显特征地), but occasionally took a series of positive or negative actions. Sometimes she held doors for people. Other times she would cut in line. Participants answered how long such behavior had to go on for their perception of Barbara to tip in various directions.The result? Barbara had to do nice things for more weeks to become regarded as a good person than the number of weeks she had to do bad things to become bad. Another online experiment including 200 female participants also found that people were quick to judge when Barbara was doing wrong and much slower to believe she'd changed for the better. “People onlyneed to take just a few bad actions to appear greatly changed for the worse, but need to take many good actions to appear greatly changed for the better,” the authors write.If you've made a good first impression on a group of people,don't get too comfortable, Do something bad, and they'll quickly change their impression for the worse. But if you made a bad first impression,then the Head & Shoulders advertisement is onto something because. as Heather Huhman, president of Come Recommended. puts it."People are always quick to judge, and we like our opinions--we don't like to change our minds.”28.
