town. No people in the town went to Africa except him. And
he hoped they thought he was a famous man and that they
could respect him. The children often asked him to tell them
some stories and his life in Africa.
One day a few children asked him to tell them something
about the animals in Africa. He told them how he fought with
the tigers and elephants. His stories surprised them all and
some policemen and workers went to listen to him. It made
him happier. Just a man who taught geography in a middle
school passed there. He stopped to listen to him for a while
and then said, "Could you please tell us a rare animal, sir?"
"Certainly," said Mr. Turner. "One day I met a rhinoceros(犀
牛) by a river…"
"Please wait a minute, sir," said the man. "There aren't any
rhinoceros in Africa at all!"
"It's rare just because there aren't any!"
