One evening, at about six oclock, we went for a drive in the tour bus. There were fourteen tourists. Well, we soon saw some elephants. They were drinking some water at a pool. So we got out of the bus to take photos. Anyway, suddenly this large elephant started looking very angry. Then it walked towards us. The guide told us to run back to the bus as fast as possible. So we did. This was a really bad idea because the elephant followed us. Then the guide got into the bus and drove away very fast. It wasnt a nice experience. And we will never forget it.二语法。1. -How about the cloth you bought yesterday?-Its very beautiful. It _ so soft.
