Question

【题目】根据材料内容， 回答下列问题。

Yesterday the police were joined by more than 20 volunteers in the continuing search for the two missing teenagers, Vicky Gray and Tom Hunter, and their guide, Gavin Jones. The police said that they disappeared during an adventure tour of Cape York Peninsula. The three travelers left Cooktown very early on Saturday morning in a Toyota car. They took a small dirt road that runs down to the Daintree River, a dangerous river full of crocodiles (鳄鱼).

This is the second day of the search and the police are now very worried about the safety of the missing people. The police say that the search has covered a wide area, but the rainforest is thick and their work is made harder by the recent rain.

A photo of Vicky and Tom was found by a policeman under the “Be Careful about Crocodiles” sign near the river. There are many unanswered questions: Why was the photo left behind? Why was the Toyota parked and locked at the edge of the rainforest? Why was a map of the area left behind? Why was there a cross on the point where the car was?

If anyone can give information or has seen these three young people, contact the local police in Cooktown.
