It's somewhat difficult to figure out the rules for sure. Here, one bell means “elephant”, two, “rhino”(犀牛), and three and four, I really can't remember for what, because when you're awoken by bells in the middle of the night, your first thought won't be “Animal!”. But as soon as I realized it was the rhino alarm, I was running for the stairs.A baby African buffalo and a baby rhino stood a couple feet apart, staring at each other. Behind them, their mothers were looking on with the kind of indifference of mothers everywhere who see their kids playing a harmless game. Of course, I'm the only one watching the animals stare-down. Either everyone else died of a heart attack when the bells went off, or I was the only one in the entire hotel who didn't turn the alarm switch to off before going to bed.The Ark, a hotel shaped like the biblical ark(圣经的方舟), lies in the highlands of Kenya's Aberdare National Park, about 100 kilometers north of Nairobi. At the Ark's prow(船首) are huge windows overlooking a waterhole. Earlier tonight, I'd watched a pack of wolves, buffaloes and elephants. And now, at three or so in the morning, I'm down for rhino bells. The first time, 2.5 hours ago, it was a single black rhino, which came down, got a drink, and left.I'd have been sorry for the lost sleep. I've already arranged with a guide to take me out at sunrise for the so-called “should-never-miss” bird-watching, where we'll get to see 30 species, but really, how many times in your life will you get to wake up and say, “Wow! Rhino!” Isn't that the definition of a pretty good night? Last week we went from Uganda into Kenya. Before I left home, I thought I'd be happy with ten elephants and five or six giraffes on the whole trip. I didn't dare to dream the rhino.21. The message that the hotel's bells sent was _______________.A. significant for visitors to avoid dangerB. a matter that all visitors had got used toC. hard for the author to remember in detailD. a wise alarm the author had nev。
