Denny Crook was a famous photographer. He traveled all over the world, taking pictures for magazines and newspapers, and won many prizes.
“I’ll do anything to get a good photo,” he often said. “I’ll go anywhere at any time, even if it is
26 .”
And he told the
27 . He had photos of earthquakes, forest fires, floods and even wars. If something interesting happened, Denny went to photo it.
He was a married man and his wife often asked him to take her with him, but he always
28 .”I’ll travel for my work, not for
29 ,” he told her. “You won’t enjoy yourself, and I won’t have
30 to look after you. Sometimes there’s not even anywhere to
31 , and I have to sleep outside. I often don’t have a good
32 or a bath for days. You won’t like it.”
“Denny, I’m not a child,” his wife didn’t
33 . “I can look after myself. Please take me with you the next time you go overseas.”
Denny did not say anything, but he
34 about it, and when he was asked to go to Africa he said to his wife, “You can come to Africa with me if you want to. I’ve got to take photos of wild
35 there. It should be interesting and not too uncomfortable.”
His wife was very
36 , and at first she had a very enjoyable time.
Then Denny went to off to
37 some lions to photo. His wife went with him, but before long they became separated. She walked down one path while he walked down the other.
Suddenly, Denny heard her
38 . He ran back and saw her running toward him. A huge lion was chasing her.
Quickly Denny took his camera out of its case and
39 it at his wife and the lion.
Then he shouted, “
40 , woman! I can’t get you both in the picture!”
