Elephants don't forget——at least, female elephants don't． Elephant families are matri-archal． And the social knowledge gained by the oldest females is the key to a family group's survival, according to a study published in April by Karen McComb, a biologist at Sussex University in England．
Elephants announce their presence by making a deep, long sound, a practice referred to as contact calling (联络呼叫)． An unfamiliar call may mean that an elephant from out-side the family group is nearby． A stranger can cause trouble, interrupting feeding ordis-turbing the young． So an elephant matriarch signals the family to gather around her； then they all lift their trunks in the air to smell the unfamiliar caller． False alarms can disturb the group and take time and energy away from feeding, so survival may depend in part on getting it right．
Working with Cynthia Moss, who founded the Amboseli Elephant Research Project in Kenya 30 years ago, McComb tested the social knowledge of 21 Amboseli elephant families with matriarchs 27 to 67 years old． She played recordings of contact calls to each family andfound that the oldest matriarchs were much better at picking out unfamiliar calls． In fact, agroup with a matriarch in her fifties was several thousand times more likely to form into a group upon hearing an unfamiliar contact call than when hearing a familiar call． However,families with younger matriarchs were less than twice as likely to gather together upon hearing an unfamiliar contact call as compared with a familiar call． And they gathered to-gether a lot． Moreover, the social knowledge of older matriarchs translated into favourable results: Families with older matriarchs produced more baby elephants in each female-re-productive year．
This finding shows how difficult it is to protect the oldest members of elephant fami-lies． As elephants age, they continue to grow larger, as do their much wanted tusks (象牙)． So the older and wiser a matriarch is, the greater the chance she will be killed． About800,000 elephants have been killed by people in the past 20 years．
What does the underlined word "matriarch" mean?
A．An old member of an elephant family．
B．A female head of an elephant family．
C．A wise elephant．
D．A large elephant．
