    Dane got lost in the jungle while on a hunting trip with his friends. Over the next few days, he became weaker from lack of food and water and was bitten by mosquitoes and leeches. He found a watering hole which provided water but also attracted wild animals. By the sixth day in the jungle, Dane was feverish and heard a search plane fly over but was too weak to call for help. He then heard rescuers calling and managed to cry out for help, and was discovered covered in mud and rescued from the jungle.

    DANE’S ADVENTURE

    This passage tells what happened when someone got lost in the jungle.
    Dane had not eaten or drunk anything for two days and he felt weak. Once again,
    he thought of his friends, Mat and Harry. Were they safe? Perhaps they were still
    looking for him. The three of them had come to the jungle for a hunting trip but
    had become separated while running from a wild elephant. Dane had lost his
    equipment and food supply, but he knew that he should not give up. He prayed
    for strength to find a way out of the thick tropical jungle.
    Dane was completely lost and was going round in circles. Wherever he went he
    was plagued by mosquitos and other insects. As if that was not enough, the
    leeches were draining his blood little by little. He was too scared to eat leaves or
    berries for fear of upsetting his stomach. He came across some animals’
    footprints which led him to a watering hole. There, he drank greedily until he was
    full. Then, to keep off the biting insects, he rolled himself in the mud. He decided
    to stay near the watering hole to wait for a search party.
    Early in the morning of the fourth day, Dane was awakened by something
    exploring his body. Shaking his fear, he realised that it was an elephant’s trunk
    examining him, but as soon as he shouted, the frightened elephant crashed away
    through the jungle. Dane was thankful that he was safe, for the elephant might
    have stood on him and crushed him. Another time, Dane woke up from a short
    sleep to find a wild boar noisily licking him. Frightened, he leapt up and
    screamed. Fortunately, the startled animal disappeared off into the trees.
    By the sixth day, Dane was feeling very thirsty and feverish. He heard a plane
    flying overheard but was too weak to shout. He began to despair.
    Then, later in the day, Dane thought he heard voices calling him. With the little
    strength he had remaining, he let out a feeble cry.
    The rescuers stared in disbelief to see Dane covered in mud from head to foot.
    He was quickly carried out of the jungle. A few hours later, Dane was in the
    hospital, remembering his experience and wondering how he had survived the
    terrible ordeal.
