What do people think about in a life-boat? They think about land, a warmbed, dry clothes, clean water and food.

　　【漢語翻譯】

　　乘小船在海上

　　人們曾在很小的船上周游世界。那可不是一件容易的事．有時天氣(weather)變壞。那將是小船的末日。也是船上每個人的末日。事故(accident)發(fā)生地報容易也很快。

　　有個家庭曾遭遇過一條大魚(fish)導(dǎo)致的事故。那魚游到他們的船下咬了幾個洞．水涌入船里，當然，船很快下沉了。然而，這些人還有另一個更小的船——救生艇，他們都上了那艘救生艇。他們期盼(hope)著堅持了許多天，他們醒了(wake)又睡(sleep)，卻總是懷著希望……最后一艘輪船(ship)發(fā)現(xiàn)了他們。

　　人們在這么小的船里怎么生活呢？很可能度過幾周或數(shù)月。他們必須在各個方面都很堅強。他們必須有希望——他們必須有活下去的愿望。但你總不能吃喝希望吧。

　　你無法喝海水，喝大量海水后人很快就會死亡。水手可以喝雨(rain)水。他們必須接雨水存在船里。他們還要捉魚和鳥當作食物。救生艇里一般不會有廚具(cooker)，因此水手們不能烹飪食物。生魚和鳥的肉味道不是很好。但在救生艇上別無選擇(choice)!水手們必須吃生的食物，否則(or)他們只有死路一條。

　　在救生艇里人們又會想些什么呢？他們想念陸地(land)、溫暖的床(bed)、干爽的(dry)衣服、干凈的水和食物。?

　　三十六. A Careless Couple

　　Mr. and Mrs. Long have a poor memory, and they are also very careless. Comparedwith the careless parents, their daughter Linda is quite different. Linda is very careful in doing things. If Mr. and Mrs. Long can act carefully and remember tocheck their work, they’ll not cause so much trouble in their life.

　　One summer they plan to fly to New York for a visit. They get to the airport only ten minutes before the plane leaves. So time is short. But suddenly Mrs. Long says she must tell Linda, their daughter, not to forget to lock the front door when she leaves for school in the morning. As Linda is then at school, they can't reach her on the phone. So the couple hurries to the post office. Mrs. Long writes a short note to Linda, while Mr. Long buys a stamp and an envelope(郵票). Soon the note is ready.They put the stamp on the envelope and drop it in the letter box in a hurry. But suddenly Mrs. Long begins to cry. The short note to her daughter is still in her hand.She has put their plane tickets in the envelope!
