But what do you make of this? cried Professor Summerlee, triumphantly pointing to what looked like the huge print of a five-fingered human хэнд appearing among the three-toed marks.
Wealden! cried Professor Challenger, in ecstasy. Ive seen them in Wealden in England. It is a creature walking upright upon three-toed feet, and occasionally putting one of its five-fingered forepaws down on the ground. Not a bird, my dear Roxton not a bird.
A beast?
No; a reptile a dinosaur. Nothing else could have left such a track.
His words died away into a whisper, and we all stood in motionless amazement. Following the tracks, we left the swamp and passed through some bushes and trees. Beyond was an open clearing, where there were five of the most extraordinary creatures that I have ever seen. Crouching down among the bushes, we observed them at our leisure.
There were, as I say, five of them, two adults and three young ones. They were enormous. Even the babies were as big as elephants, while the two adults were bigger than any creatures I have ever seen. They had slate-coloured skin which had scales like a lizards and glittered when the sun shone upon it. All five were sitting up, balancing themselves upon their broad, powerful tails and their huge three-toed back feet, while they pulled down branches with their small fivefingered front feet. I do not know if I can describe them to you better other than by saying that they looked like monstrous kangaroos, twenty feet in length, and with skin like crocodiles.
I do not know how long we stayed gazing at this marvellous sight. A strong wind blew towards us but we were well concealed, so there was no chance of discovery. From time to time the little ones played round their parents in clumsy games, the great beasts hopping into the air and falling with dull thuds upon the earth. The strength of the parents seemed to be limitless, for one of them, having some difficulty in reaching a bunch of leaves which grew upon a large tree, put his forelegs round the trunk and tore it down as if it were a sapling. This showed not only the strength of its muscles, but also the weakness of its brain, for the whole tree came crashing down on top of it. It yelped loudly, showing that despite its size there was a limit to what it could endure. The incident caused him to move off, followed by its partner and their three enormous infants. We saw the shimmering grey gleam of their skin between the tree trunks and their heads moving up and down high above the tree tops. Then they vanished from our sight.
I looked at my comrades. Lord John was staring intently in the direction the creatures had disappeared. The two professors were in silent ecstasy. In their excitement, they had grabbed each other by the хэнд and stood like two little children in the presence of a wonderful sight. Challengers cheeks displayed a broad smile, and Summerlees ironic face softened in amazement.
My God he cried at last. What will they say in England about this?
My dear Summerlee, I will tell you with great confidence exactly what they will say, said Challenger. They will say that you are a liar and a scientific fake, exactly as you and others said of me.
And if we have photographs?
Faked, Summerlee, faked, theyll say!
And if we have specimens?
Ah, there we may have them! The newspapers may praise us yet. August 28th the day we saw five live iguanodons in a clearing of the Amazon Rainforest. Put it down in your diary, my young friend, and send it to your paper.
Summary of the story can be summarized in just a few words: in the Amazon jungle on a high plateau scientific expedition finds dinosaurs is quite alive.But this
retelling unlikely to be interested potential reader, so try yet more coherent account of the plot.
start again to present a summary."The Lost World" begins with a declaration of love.Budding reporter Edward Malone asks marriage to his beloved Gladys.The girl refuses on the grounds that he was too zauryaden for its sublime nature, and that her husband can count only become outstanding and courageous personality, able to make love for risky behavior.Impressed by this rebuff, our hero throws a run to the editor, demanding to immediately send it to the most perilous places on earth.That he could make out an outstanding report.Unworldly editor satisfies the request of an ambitious young man.The most dangerous job assignment is to interview the notorious Professor Challenger, who became famous in the whole of London his pathological aversion to the journalistic fraternity.Malone just have to settle for this job, and after a brief fight with the professor, he received an invitation to attend a press conference at which Challenger has to make a sensational statement.
As already guessed all readers of the book "The Lost World", a summary of which we expound this statement lies in the fact that dinosaurs are not extinct.The professor himself had seen them during his expedition, but could not save the evidence.The scientific community obsmeyat such a bold statement, but nevertheless decided to organize another expedition, consisting of Professor Summerlee opponent Challenger and independent civil society representatives.Naturally, our hero decides to become thereby a representative from the press.The second candidate was a famous hunter, Lord John Roxton.
The commission approved, and a group of brave travels to South America.There they were suddenly joined by Challenger, and who decides to personally lead the expedition.After many adventures they come to the foot of the plateau on which is located a lost world.
Summary of the story does not involve a detailed retelling of the plot twists and turns, the person concerned himself read them in the book, we are only in outline the general outline of the work.As fate and criminal conspiracy, our heroes find themselves cut off from the world in this mysterious plateau and have to not just watch the dinosaur researchers, but also to save their life, who are actively encroach carnivorous lizards.
After many adventures the expedition still manages to leave the lost world.Summary of travel written by our reporter, and he gives it to his editorial office immediately upon his return.Going new conference, now four argue that dinosaurs were alive.But again, there are skeptics who do not believe in it.If previously been questioned only words Challenger, now express distrust and to post our heroic quartet.But bitter experience Challenger makes the audience a live pterodactyl than fully confirms the truthfulness of his allegations.
our travelers declare almost national heroes and the young lover rushes to his Gladys, so try again marriage proposal.Now he can count on reciprocity, because thanks to him, discovered a lost world.
Summary story leaves no room for a scene description explaining wishing everyone can read on their own, and we just say that our hero is still a bachelor, and planning a new expedition.
