His parents hadnt enough money to send him to school. He had to help them to do something in the fields. But he didnt like to live in the poor place. When he was sixteen, he got to the town and found work in a factory. Three years later he became tall and strong. So he was sent to Africa as a soldier. He stayed there for five years and got some money. Then he came back to England and bought a shop in a small 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 arent any rhinoceros in Africa at all!" "Its rare just because there arent any!"

Whatever your budget is the choice -from basic barn to small hotel, from tiny cottage to grand castle - is all part of fun.Hostels Cheap, good-value hostels are aimed at all types of like-minded travelers, who prefer value over luxury and you dont have to be young or single to use them. Britains independent hostels and backpackers hostels also offer a great welcome. Facilities and prices vary, especially in rural areas, where some hostels are a little more than a bunkhouse (临时住房) while others are remarkably comfortable almost like bargain hotels.Youth Hotels Founded many years ago to "help all, especially young people of limited means, to a greater knowledge, love and care of the countryside", the Youth Hotels Association is still going strong in the 21st century. The network of 230 hotels is a perfect gateway for exploring Britains towns and countryside.B&Bs The B&B (bed and breakfast) is a Great British institution, In essence you get a room in somebodys house, and small B&Bs may only have one guest room, so youll really feel like part of the family. Larger B&Bs may have four or five rooms and more facilities, but just as warm as a welcome. In country areas your B&B might be in a village or an isolated farm surrounded by fields. Prices reflect facilities: and usually run from around 12 to 20 per person. City B&Bs charge about 25 to 30 per person, although theyre often cheaper as you go further out to the suburbs.Pubs & Inns As well as selling drinks and meals, Britains pubs and inns sometimes offer B&B, particularly in country areas. Staying a night or two can be great fun and puts you at the heart of the local community. Rates range from around 15 to 25 per person. Pubs are more likely to have single rooms.(1)、In this passage the author mainly _. A：tells us where to stay while visiting Britain B：advises readers to pay a visit to Britain C：introduces the wonderful public services in Britain D：gives us some information about Britis
