三、阅读理解
Chris recently completed a very unusual journey. Our reporter Mary met him at his home in south London and he told her all about the trip.
Reporter: What gave you the idea to travel around India on an elephant, Chris
Chris: Well, it all started two years ago when I was planning a trip to India. I visited a photographic (摄影的) exhibition of elephants and I realized that the only way to travel around India was on an elephant.
Reporter: What did you do next
Chris: I flew to New Delhi and started looking for an elephant. I needed an elephant trained to carry people. I didn't know anything about elephants, so I asked an expert for help. He taught me how to ride an elephant. He also helped me find an elephant.
Reporter: How long did it take to find a suitable elephant
Chris: Not too long. I bought a female elephant called Tara for about USD 6,000.
Reporter: Can you tell me about the journey
Chris: Tara and I set off from New Delhi a week later. We were heading to Sonepur in northern India where there is a big elephant market and I could sell Tara easily. And what a ride! Elephants can travel at about 6 miles an hour and Sonepur was more than 1,200 km away. It took us 64 days to complete the journey.
Reporter: Did you have any problems on your journey
Chris: Yes, a few. But nothing serious. On the third day, Tara hurt her foot. But that got better quickly. Also, there was a lot of heavy rain during the first week and we got very wet!
Reporter: What happened when you reached Sonepur
Chris:My plan was to sell Tara. But by now I was very fond of her. I couldn't take her back to Britain and I didn't want to sell her at the market. By chance, I met some people who wanted an elephant for their national park in southern India. I knew that Tara would be safe with them, so I gave her to them. I was very sad to say goodbye.
