▲ 閱讀下文,回答第41 − 45題For those who think of straws as nothing but animal feed, materials for the roof, natural fertilizersor occasional medical herbs, I would suggest that they take a trip to Snugburys. Snugburys, anice cream maker in the U.K., has had a plan to construct a sculpture every year in their farm fieldto celebrate the coming of summer. This year, they have a GIANT polar bear — a statue which has3 tons of straws inside. The steel-skeleton-straw-stuffed replica of the animal from the arctic regionis attracting interest from tourists, visitors or ice cream buyers while keeping guard at this ice creamdestination beside A51 Chester Road. The animal is approximately four times as big as a real adultmale polar bear: standing 38 feet tall and weighing in at 9 tons. The sculpture will stay there forabout half a year. “Ex-straw-dinary!” uttered one of my friends. The concept started in 1998 with ahuge Millennium Dome sculpture and, since then, on the list of the works of art are replicas of theBig Ben Clock, a windmill, the Lovell telescope, a rocket, an angel from the West, a dinosaur aswell as last year’s meerkat. Speaking about this year’s design, Mr. Sadler, the business owner,responded with a smile: “There’s no real reason why we chose a polar bear but we think that they’recool and ice cream is cool so I guess that’s a good enough explanation!” A certain part of all salesfrom the shop’s “Polar Bear Cones” will be given away to The Children’s Adventure Farm Trustwhich provides holidays for the kids in need: ill at a terminal stage, disabled, disadvantaged and thelike.
