1.Ho Khanh is a middle-aged farmer,living in a village on the edge of Phong-Nha-Ke Bang National Park in Vietnam.What is special about him is that he has discovered Son Doong,the largest cave in the world.
"I first found the cave more than twenty years ago,in 1991,"he says."I was out collecting firewood near the national park.My family were very poor,so I decided to go deeper into the forest to find some aloe (芦荟),which is very valuable.Not many people went that far into the forest because they were afraid of the wild animals."
Soon Khanh lost his way."I sat down with my back to a huge round rock,"he says."Then I heard the sound of a strong wind and running water coming from behind me."He found the entrance to a huge cave,with a wide river coming out of it.Khanh thought he was walking into a great cave.With no ropes or lights,he did not go further into it.
Khanh's story spread like wildfire,but not everyone believed him."I wanted to prove that I was telling the truth,but I couldn't remember the way to the cave."Then one morning early in the winter of 2006,a group of cavers from Britain came to ask Khanh for help,as they had heard about his discovery fifteen years before.
Khanh agreed to help the team to find the cave,but after three days in the jungle (丛林),they lost their way."I just couldn't remember where it was,"he says.The team came back twice,but each time they were beaten by the thick jungle.Finally the cavers left.
In 2009,Khanh headed to the jungle one cold winter's morning."I stopped by a big round rock,"he says."There was the same strong wind,the sound of water running----I knew I'd found the cave at last."Soon the British cavers returned and followed Khanh on a six-hour trip deep into the jungle.On April 14they found Son Doong.
