Read the text and answer the question: Why is the elephant so popular?
One day a group of animals is sitting together in the forest and talking about the popularity of the elephant. They all know that the elephant is the most popular animal in the forest, but not one of them can explain this fact.
The giraffe says, ”I don’t understand understand why the elephant is so popular. His neck is not long .My neck is the longest. I am the tallest animal in the forest.
The peacock says, “I don’t understand why the elephant is so popular. His tail is not as beautiful as my tail. I am the most beautiful animal in the forest.
The rabbit says, “ I don’t understand why the elephant is so popular. He can’t run as fast as I can. I am the fastest animal in the forest.”
The bear says, “I don’t understand why the elephant is so popular in the forest. He is not as strong as I am. I am the strongest animal in the forest.”
At this moment the elephant himself is going to the group of the animals. He is larger and stronger than any other animals. But he is always modest. That’s why he is really popular.
