Bonus Exercise: Reorder the following events based on the chronological order of their occurrence in our reading text. "Around the World in Eighty Days"

The train stops unexpectedly in the middle of a forest, and the conductor announces that passengers must get out.

Phileas Fogg and Sir Francis Cromarty learn from the conductor that the railway line is incomplete and does not yet extend to Allahabad.

Phileas Fogg decides to seek an alternative mode of transport to continue the journey, and Passepartout finds an elephant named Kiouni owned by a local Indian.

After negotiating with the elephant's owner, Fogg eventually buys Kiouni for two thousand pounds, much to Passepartout's astonishment.

A Parsee offers to act as their guide, and they set out on Kiouni through the forest towards Allahabad at nine o'clock.
