阅读理解技能保分练(八)　主旨大意题——标题归纳类 A [2021·河南省高考适应性测试]An amazing occurrence happened in South Africa when 31 elephants made a journey to pay their respect to their hero who had saved their lives and many other animals. Lawrence Anthony, a legend (传奇人物) in South Africa and author of three books including the bestseller The Elephant Whisperer, bravely rescued elephants and other wildlife all over the globe, including the courageous rescue of Baghdad Zoo animals in 2003. On March 7, 2012, Lawrence Anthony died. Two days after his passing, the wild elephants showed up at his home led by two old female elephants. Separate wild groups arrived to say goodbye to their beloved man-friend. A total of 31 elephants had patiently walked over 12 miles to reach his South African house. Witnessing this sight, humans were obviously in awe (敬畏) not only because of the precise timing that these elephants sensed about Lawrences passing, but also because of the deep memory and emotion the beloved animals showed in such an organized way. Walking slowly — for days — they made their way in a one-by-one queue from their home in the wild bush to his house. Lawrences wife, Francoise, was especially touched, knowing that the elephants had not been to his house prior to (在前面的) that day for well over three years! They knew where they were going and they seemed to know why they were going to Lawrences home. The elephants obviously wanted to pay their deep respect, honoring their human friend who had saved their lives — so much respect that they stayed for two days and two nights without eating anything. After honoring Lawrence Anthony in the only way they could, then one morning, they left, making their long journey back home. 1．When did the elephants appear at Lawrence Anthonys house?
