| [00:01.120] | --- Lesson 65 Jumbo versus the police |
| [00:08.280] | --- First listen and then answer the question. |
| [00:14.000] | --- Why did the police have to push Jumbo off the main street? |
| [00:22.240] | Last Christmas, the circus owner, Jimmy Gates, decided to take some presents to a children's hospital. |
| [00:31.880] | Dressed up as Father Christmas and accompanied by a 'guard of honour' of six pretty girls, |
| [00:39.640] | he set off down the main street of the city riding a baby elephant called Jumbo. |
| [00:46.840] | He should have known that the police would never allow this sort of thing. |
| [00:52.760] | A policeman approached Jimmy and told him he ought to have gone along a side street as Jumbo was holding up the traffic. |
| [01:03.200] | Though Jimmy agreed to go at once, Jumbo refused to move. |
| [01:09.680] | Fifteen policemen had to push very hard to get him off the main street.^15 |
| [01:16.480] | The police had a difficult time, but they were most amused. |
| [01:22.600] | 'Jumbo must weigh a few tons,' said a policeman afterwards,^“ |
| [01:28.480] | 'so it was fortunate that we didn't have to carry him.^“ |
| [01:32.480] | Of course, we should arrest him, but as he has a good record, we shall let him off this time.' |
