There used to be lots in Indian rivers, living on fish mostly, but what's a little fish 4 a fifteen-foot crocodile? They eat people, fisherman or anyone else delicious enough to get too near-women doing the 5 , or children playing at the water's 6 .A hungry crocodile's mouth 7 over a meal with a sound like a gunshot. A big fellow can 8 in a man in two bites.
That woman's husband crossed rivers 9 from one crocodile's back to the next. I believe it. It had to be done 10 before the creature could see what was happening. It wasn't 11 a brave, active man, and no doubt he improved with practice. He could never look 12 while crossing.

Then he 17 . I imagined how she felt. Was there another man 18 him in India, in the world? She was still young, hardly a sitting-room widow(寡妇) .“I must 19 , too.” she said to herself. So she did what she felt she had to do. A 20 probably, to her head.
But her young son, their son? Was her love for him nothing compared to her husband? Well, what do you think?
