Aarohi Pandit is a 23-year-old pilot from Mumbai, India. She became the first woman to fly alone across the Atlantic in a very light aircraft. The trip is just one part of her plan to fly all the way around the world.
Ms. Pandit's airplane is a light sports aircraft (LSA). It is much smaller than most airplanes. It is shorter than many people and weighs just 400 kilograms. The wings are 15 m across. The aircraft, which is nicknamed 'Mahi', only has one engine. It can fly for about six hours at a time and can cover 745 miles before it needs more fuel. The fastest it can go is about 125 miles per hour.
Mahi has room for two people, and Ms. Pandit began the trip with her friend, 24-year-old Keithair Misquitta. The two are raising money for a group called WE!. They want to help girls and women who have not had many chances. Together, the two women left India nearly a year ago. They flew Mahi through Pakistan, Iran, Turkey, Serbia, Slovenia, Germany, France, and the UK.
To cross the Atlantic, Ms. Pandit took off from an airfield in Scotland. Because the plane is limited in how far it can fly in one trip, Ms. Pandit completed the trip in five flights. She stopped off in Iceland and Greenland before arriving in Canada.
Several men have flown across alone in LSAs. But Ms. Pandit's flight is the first time the trip has been completed in an LSA by a woman flying alone.

Read the passage and answer the question that follow.
Long, long ago, the mighty Elephant had no trunk. His nose was short, and only as big as a boot! But the Elephant's child was very curious and always asked silly questions. One fine morning the curious baby Elephant asked, "What does the Crocodile have for dinner?" All together everybody yelled, "HUSH!" in a dreadful tone, and they shushed and shooed him away angrily. But the baby Elephant did not understand why. He was still curious!
Then the baby Elephant came upon the magnificent Kolokolo bird and he sighed, "My family has shushed and shooed me away, but I still want to know what the Crocodile eats for dinner!" The Kolokolo bird answered, sadly, "Go to the banks of the great green river if you want to find out." After a long and tiresome search, the baby Elephant found the Crocodile by the river bank. "I have been looking for you, Mr. Crocodile!" he said with excitement, "Will you please tell me what you have for dinner?" The Crocodile grinned wide, and he said, "Come closer, baby Elephant, I'll whisper it to you." The baby Elephant bent his head down to the Crocodile's large, toothy mouth.
"I think," growled the Crocodile, "Today I will begin with a baby Elephant!" And suddenly the Crocodile caught him by his little nose. The baby Elephant cried out through his pinched nose, "Led go! You're hurding be!" Stubbornly, he sat back and began to pull as hard as he could. As he pulled, and went back, his nose began to stretch! They both pulled and pulled until the baby Elephant's nose was almost five feet long. Finally the Crocodile let go of his nose with a plop. The poor baby Elephant was left with a very sore and very long nose! At first, all the animals made fun of his great, ugly nose. But then he found many uses for it. He could pick fruit from high treetops, brush away flies, and even breathe when he was underwater! And that is how the Elephant got his trunk.
