Chris Jones 刚刚结束了一次不寻常的印度之旅,记者就此对他进行了采访。以下是采访的部分内容:

Reporter:

Chris: Well, it all started two years ago when I was having a trip to India. I visited a photographic(摄影)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 asked an expert for help. He taught me how to ride an elephant. He also helped me find an elephant.

Reporter:

Chris: Not too long, I bought a female(母的)elephant called Tara for about USD 6000.
