It is not easy for people to sail (航海) around the world in quite small boats. Sometimes the weather gets bad. Accidents(事故) can happen easily and quickly.
One family once had an accident. A big fish swam under their boat and bit holes(洞) in it. Sea water came in and the boat soon went down. Luckily these people had another small boat——a lifeboat, so they all got into the lifeboat. They lived in the boat for many days. They ate and slept, and always hoped. At last people in a ship saved them.
How do people live in a very small lifeboat for a long time? They must be strong in every way. They must have a hope, and they must have a strong desire（愿望）to live. People cannot drink seawater. If they drink a lot of sea water, they will quickly die. They must catch rainwater and drink it. They must also catch fish and birds for food. Lifeboats do not often carry cookers. So people cannot cook their food in the lifeboats. Raw (生的) fish and birds are not very nice but they are their only food. They must eat raw food, or they will die.
小題1:When the boat sank (下沉), the lifeboat gave the people _______.
A．foodB．bedsC．rainwaterD．hope
小題2:One family once had an accident at sea, because _______.
A．their boat met bad weather
B．their boat hit a big rock and it was broken
C．none of them knew how to sail
D．a(chǎn) fish bit holes in their boat
小題3:People can catch _______ for food and drink at sea in a lifeboat.
A．fish and birdsB．rainwater
C．both sea water and rainwaterD．both A and B
小題4:Lifeboats do not often carry cookers. The word "cookers" here means ________.
A．廚師B．食物C．炊具D．大盒子
小題5:From the article (文章) we can know that ______.
A．It’s not interesting to sail around the world
B．Fish in the sea are so dangerous
C．we must have a strong desire（愿望）to live when we are in danger
D．Nobody knows when we will die

小題1:D
小題2:D
小題3:D
小題4:C
小題5:C
