You know Africa, Robinson. You are the best person to go.

We need to repair them. “We must go back to Brazil.”“No,” I said. “We aren’t far from the island of Barbados. We must go there. They speak English and we can find people to help us repair the ship.”So we sailed north-east into the Caribbean Sea.We were making good progress when there was another storm. Once again the strong wind blew our ship off its course. This time it took us west and away from Barbados. We were going towards unknown lands.

From there I could see the other islands, and I could also see a boat, far out to sea. “If you have a boat,” I thought, “it’s easy to sail across to this island.

Then these wild men danced round the fire, singing and shouting.

鲁滨逊漂流记英文版(大全5篇)第一篇:鲁滨逊漂流记英文版Reading Report:On Robinson Crusoe---20095987 Class 2Life is just like a boat which is flowing on the river of life,we will be confronted with various disturbrances and we will also enjoy several comfortable days.One person may encounter many waves which are always onrushing and these waves will make you confused, feared, lost.Whether it will be destroyed or survive after the storm.it is you who are in charge of the fate of the little boat Whether it will be destroyed or survive after the storm.In brief,it is you who are doomed to control the little boat’s fate.Recently I have read Robinson Crusoe,I think this great work proves this argument.Robinson,a solitary and tough adventurer,who gives up his comfortable life,fights for his dream.Robinson,a ture brave person,has spent twenty eight years on a desolate and uninhabitated island without anybody companying him.All of these has proved that he is the one who dare take risks and have the kind of resilience.This,I find,is an observation that is equally valid for life.In order to scale the heights of knowledge ,many scholars have experienced heaps of times of smokeless wars.To realize the lofty ideals,many businessmen have struggled in the commercial circles for many years and have gone through a lot of hardships.They are all our excellent models who we should learn from.We are also inclined to try hard and pursue our own lofty ideals.After I have read Robinson Crusoe,a great image comes into my sight.It is Robinson who is a brave adventurer and seafarer.By relying on his tough willpower and his sprite of never give up,he has achivedhis navigation dream.As if I saw a man standing right on shipboard who had given up his well-fixed and comfortable life embarks on a duel with Azrael in the course of fighting agaist death on the island.Hundreds of thousands of miseries and obstacles never defeated Robinson,on the contrary,these made him much more tough.The difficulties set up by God are challenging.All the sailers are dead because of storm and tsunami exceot Robinson.The genuine challenge is just awaiting for him.After he was confined to the desert island,in order to find a suitable habitation,he has searched the island all day long.Finally,he selects a place at the foot of the hill rock.He sets up a tent as large as possible with several wood to lift the hanging bed.The second day,he makes a instant wall to protect himself by using the boxes and wood boards.But after only over 10 days,the collapse strikes him.He moves away the collapse moud and fixes the ceiling and uses pillars to lift it.In this way,he won’t be bothered by collapse.These necceseties provide him foundation for his future life.And then,he finds wheat by chance.And he produces more and more crops by his hardwork despite of several failures.And he has spent several yeas to bulid a boat but only to find he can’t move it because it is far frombank.Thus his hope collapes soon.And after a long time,he meets with Friday.His hope lights up again.Robinson is a brave and tough great.He has lived for 27 years on the desert island.He dares to fight against the serious natural circumstances.He works hard and keeps the island in order.He has learned a lot from his 27 years life on the island and achived a lot finally.This book sheds light on me and guide me in the course of growing up.It tells us that only by hard work and persistence can we succeed.And it also tells that getting right on the job is more thanbelief.As Winston Churchill said:Never give up,nerver give up,never,never.....These can benefit me a lot in my future and make my life much more worthy.第二篇:鲁滨逊漂流记英文读后感Robinson CrusoeBrief IntroductionThe novel, Robinson Crusoe written by an English writer Daniel Defoe was published by Oxford University Press for sale in the People’s Republic of China in 1993.But the book I read is printed by Foreign Language Teaching and Research Press in 1997.The book has 283 pages.Main ContentsThe novel happened around Robinson Crusoe.At first, He had a happy family and entered a good school.His parents hoped that he could get a good job.However, he didn’t want that.He wanted to adventure and have an exciting life.When he told his parents that he wanted to be a sailor and would go to sea, his parents were angry.But he never forgot his ambition.In 1651 he with his friend went to Hull by sea.They adventured a strong wind and a heavy rain.At first he was afraid.Then he didn’t want his friends and his family to laugh at him, so he began to go on with his second time.They met the famous thieves of the sea at that time.The thieves wanted to sell them as slaves but in the end the Turkin capitan decided to keep Robinson for himself as a salve.Then he and a boy named Xury escaped from th e Turkin’s control.He met with a Portuguese captain, who would go to Brazil.Robinson came to Brazil with the Portuguese captain.There he began to have a new life.But soon he was bored again.His friends were going to Africa to do business.He went with them again.They met a terrible storm.His friends were all dead.Only Robinson survived and was thrown onto a lonely island.On thelonely island he began to live a new life alone.Totally he set three houses to survive.He never forgot that he must return to his home, so he created several ships to help himself to leave the island.However, he didn’t succeed in leaving the island.Someday he found there were fights between wild men on the other islands.Then they came to his island with their prisoners, to kill them, cook them, and eat them.Robinson was very angry.He wanted a friend to talk to, so he determined to try to catch one of the prisoners of the wild men.There was a man who was very lucky.Robinson called him Friday.Robinson taught him to speak and work.Friday was very clever and he learned to speak and work.At last, Robinson and Friday wanted to leave the island.One day a captain and his officers were controlled by the mutineers.The ship was from England.They drew an agreement.Robinson and Friday helped them to own the ship again and the captain helped Robinson and Friday return to England.They were successful.Robinson ended up his island life which lasted twenty-seven years, two months and nineteen days.Robinson was married and had a peaceful life.From the beginning to end he liked adventuring, so he began to adventure again.Maybe he would write another book about his adventures.Excellent episodes1.At first I was very thankful to be alive.Slowly, I got to my feet and went higher up the shore.From there, I looked out to sea.I could see our ship, but it was wrecked and there was nobody in the water.All my friends were dead.I was alive, but in a strange wild to sleep on the shore.Perhaps there were wild animals there.So I went up into a tree and I stayed there all night.2.My life was still busy from morning to night.There were always things to do or to make.I learned to make new clothes for myself from theskins of dead animals.They looked very strange, it is true, but they kept me dry in the rain.3.The prisoner ran like a wild goat, and soon I saw that he was coming near the bottom of my hill.As fast as I could,Iran down the hill and jumped out of the trees between the prisoner and the two wild men.4.He was a fine young man, about twenty-five years old, tall and well-built, with a kind face and a nice smile.He had a brown skin, black hair, bright eyes and strong white teeth.I decided to give him the name of “Man Friday”, because I first saw him on a Friday.5.Friday was a quick learned and his English got better day by day.He helped me with the goats and with the work in the cornfields, and soon we were good friends.I enjoyed teaching him and, most of all, having a friend to talk to.This was the happiest of all my years on the island.ReflectionWhen I was in primary school, my teachers asked me to read the book, Robinson Crusoe.They told me that the novel can make you understand how to be independent from your parents.I read it when I was a little girl.Yes, I had a deep feeling.I understood many things.If we always rely on our friends and parents, when we have to survive independently we will not be able to adapt to all.To the contrary we usually depend on ourselves, then when we encounter some unexpected things, we can adapt and have positive attitudes to resolve it.However, this time after I read the novel I have deeper reflections.In our lives we should do adventures.When hardships are on the corner, we should face them bravely and never be fear.We shouldn’t have been satisfied with the situation which we are in at present.We should have ambitions.I believe if we are on a high stand, and we struggle for it, we can arrive a higher stand.Now we live in the modern society, so it is not necessary to drift to a desertisland.But promise me to image it.If I stayed on a lonely island, I absolutely couldn’t conquer dangers.Maybe I would lose confidence for life.I respect Robinson very much.He is a real hero in my heart.There is no perfect life in the world and our life will not be plain sailing and sometimes we maybe also encounter some dangerous things.But we can change our fate.Only if we know how to take the right measures, we will escape from the dangers.Only if we have confidences and work hard, we absolutely will be victorious.In fact, the most important thing is “Never give up”.Now I am young.There is a long time that I must experience.When I am in the college, I can make the most of the time.And no matter what difficulties, I will face with them and never give up.I believe I can conquer any difficulty.本文版权归曼界森英书下载网及英文小说网共同所有第三篇:鲁滨逊漂流记英文读后感Reads Lu Binxun To wander Records has the

该书首次出版于1719年4月25日。
该作主要讲述了主人公鲁滨逊·克鲁索(Robinson Crusoe)出生于一个中产阶级家庭,一生志在遨游四海。
一次在去非洲航海的'途中遇到风暴,只身漂流到一个无人的荒岛上,开始了段与世隔绝的生活。
他凭着强韧的意志与不懈的努力,在荒岛上顽强地生存下来,经过28年2个月零19天后得以返回故乡。
IN a little time, however, no more canoes appearing, the fear of their coming wore off; and I began to take my former thoughts of a voyage to the main into consideration; being likewise assured by Friday's father that I might depend upon good usage from their nation, on his account, if I would go. But my thoughts were a little suspended when I had a serious discourse1 with the Spaniard, and when I understood that there were sixteen more of his countrymen and Portuguese2, who having been cast away and made their escape to that side, lived there at peace, indeed, with the savages4, but were very sore put to it for necessaries, and, indeed, for life. I asked him all the particulars of their voyage, and found they were a Spanish ship, bound from the Rio de la Plata to the Havanna, being directed to leave their loading there, which was chiefly hides and silver, and to bring back what European goods they could meet with there; that they had five Portuguese seamen5 on board, whom they took out of another wreck6; that five of their own men were drowned when first the ship was lost, and that these escaped through infinite dangers and hazards, and arrived, almost starved, on the cannibal coast, where they expected to have been devoured7 every moment. He told me they had some arms with them, but they were perfectly8useless, for that they had neither powder nor ball, the washing of the sea having spoiled all their powder but a little, which they used at their first landing to provide themselves with some food.I asked him what he thought would become of them there, and if they had formed any design of making their escape. He said they had many consultations9 about it; but that having neither vessel10 nor tools to build one, nor provisions of any kind, their councils always ended in tears and despair. I asked him how he thought they would receive a proposal from me, which might tend towards an escape; and whether, if they were all here, it might not be done. I told him with freedom, I feared mostly their treachery and ill-usage of me, if I put my life in their hands; for that gratitude11 was no inherent virtue12 in the nature of man, nor did men always square their dealings by the obligations they had received so much as they did by the advantages they expected. I told him it would be very hard that I should be made the instrument of their deliverance, and that they should afterwards make me their prisoner in New Spain, where an Englishman was certain to be made a sacrifice, what necessity or what accident soever brought him thither13; and that I had rather be delivered up to the savages, and be devoured alive, than fall into the merciless claws of the priests, and be carried into the Inquisition. I added that, otherwise, I was persuaded, if they were all here, we might, with so many hands, build a barque large enough to carry us all away, either to the Brazils southward, or to the islands or Spanish coast northward14; but that if, in requital15, they should, when I had put weapons into their hands, carry me by force among their own people, I might be ill-used for my kindness to them, and make my case worse than it was before.He answered, with a great deal of candour andingenuousness16, that their condition was so miserable17, and that they were so sensible of it, that he believed they would abhor18 the thought of using any man unkindly that should contribute to their deliverance; and that, if I pleased, he would go to them with the old man, and discourse with them about it, and return again and bring me their answer; that he would make conditions with them upon their solemn oath, that they should be absolutely under my direction as their commander and captain; and they should swear upon the holy sacraments and gospel to be true to me, and go to such Christian19 country as I should agree to, and no other; and to be directed wholly and absolutely by my orders till they were landed safely in such country as I intended, and that he would bring a contract from them, under their hands, for that purpose. Then he told me he would first swear to me himself that he would never stir from me as long as he lived till I gave him orders; and that he would take my side to the last drop of his blood, if there should happen the least breach20 of faith among his countrymen. He told me they were all of them very civil, honest men, and they were under the greatest distress21 imaginable, having neither weapons nor clothes, nor any food, but at the mercy and discretion22 of the savages; out of all hopes of ever returning to their own country; and that he was sure, if I would undertake their relief, they would live and die by me.Upon these assurances, I resolved to venture to relieve them, if possible, and to send the old savage3 and this Spaniard over to them to treat. But when we had got all things in readiness to go, the Spaniard himself started an objection, which had so much prudence23 in it on one hand, and so much sincerity24 on the other hand, that I could not but be very well satisfied in it; and,by his advice, put off the deliverance of his comrades for at least half a year. The case was thus: he had been with us now about a month, during which time I had let him see in what manner I had provided, with the assistance of Providence25, for my support; and he saw evidently what stock of corn and rice I had laid up; which, though it was more than sufficient for myself, yet it was not sufficient, without good husbandry, for my family, now it was increased to four; but much less would it be sufficient if his countrymen, who were, as he said, sixteen, still alive, should come over; and least of all would it be sufficient to victual our vessel, if we should build one, for a voyage to any of the Christian colonies of America; so he told me he thought it would be more advisable to let him and the other two dig and cultivate some more land, as much as I could spare seed to sow, and that we should wait another harvest, that we might have a supply of corn for his countrymen, when they should come; for want might be a temptation to them to disagree, or not to think themselves delivered, otherwise than out of one difficulty into another. "You know," says he, "the children of Israel, though they rejoiced at first for their being delivered out of Egypt, yet rebelled even against God Himself, that delivered them, when they came to want bread in the wilderness26.His caution was so seasonable, and his advice so good, that I could not but be very well pleased with his proposal, as well as I was satisfied with his fidelity27; so we fell to digging, all four of us, as well as the wooden tools we were furnished with permitted; and in about a month's time, by the end of which it was seed-time, we had got as much land cured and trimmed up as we sowed two-and-twenty bushels of barley28 on, and sixteen jars of rice, which was, in short, all the seed we had to spare: indeed,we left ourselves barely sufficient, for our own food for the six months that we had to expect our crop; that is to say reckoning from the time we set our seed aside for sowing; for it is not to be supposed it is six months in the ground in that country.Having now society enough, and our numbers being sufficient to put us out of fear of the savages, if they had come, unless their number had been very great, we went freely all over the island, whenever we found occasion; and as we had our escape or deliverance upon our thoughts, it was impossible, at least for me, to have the means of it out of mine. For this purpose I marked out several trees, which I thought fit for our work, and I set Friday and his father to cut them down; and then I caused the Spaniard, to whom I imparted my thoughts on that affair, to oversee29 and direct their work. I showed them with what indefatigable30 pains I had hewed31 a large tree into single planks32, and I caused them to do the like, till they made about a dozen large planks, of good oak, near two feet broad, thirty-five feet long, and from two inches to four inches thick: what prodigious33 labour it took up any one may imagine.At the same time I contrived34 to increase my little flock of tame goats as much as I could; and for this purpose I made Friday and the Spaniard go out one day, and myself with Friday the next day (for we took our turns), and by this means we got about twenty young kids to breed up with the rest; for whenever we shot the dam, we saved the kids, and added them to our flock. But above all, the season for curing the grapes coming on, I caused such a prodigious quantity to be hung up in the sun, that, I believe, had we been at Alicant, where the raisins35 of the sun are cured, we could have filled sixty or eighty barrels; and these, with our bread, formed a great part of our food-very good livingtoo, I assure you, for they are exceedingly nourishing.It was now harvest, and our crop in good order: it was not the most plentiful36 increase I had seen in the island, but, however, it was enough to answer our end; for from twenty-two bushels of barley we brought in and thrashed out above two hundred and twenty bushels; and the like in proportion of the rice; which was store enough for our food to the next harvest, though all the sixteen Spaniards had been on shore with me; or, if we had been ready for a voyage, it would very plentifully37 have victualled our ship to have carried us to any part of the world; that is to say, any part of America. When we had thus housed and secured our magazine of corn, we fell to work to make more wicker-ware, viz. great baskets, in which we kept it; and the Spaniard was very handy and dexterous39 at this part, and often blamed me that I did not make some things for defence of this kind of work; but I saw no need of it.And now, having a full supply of food for all the guests I expected, I gave the Spaniard leave to go over to the main, to see what he could do with those he had left behind him there. I gave him a strict charge not to bring any man who would not first swear in the presence of himself and the old savage that he would in no way injure, fight with, or attack the person he should find in the island, who was so kind as to send for them in order to their deliverance; but that they would stand by him and defend him against all such attempts, and wherever they went would be entirely40 under and subjected to his command; and that this should be put in writing, and signed in their hands. How they were to have done this, when I knew they had neither pen nor ink, was a question which we never asked. Under these instructions, the Spaniard and the old savage, the father of Friday,went away in one of the canoes which they might be said to have come in, or rather were brought in, when they came as prisoners to be devoured by the savages. I gave each of them a musket41, with a firelock on it, and about eight charges of powder and ball, charging them to be very good husbands of both, and not to use either of them but upon urgent occasions.This was a cheerful work, being the first measures used by me in view of my deliverance for now twenty-seven years and some days. I gave them provisions of bread and of dried grapes, sufficient for themselves for many days, and sufficient for all the Spaniards- for about eight days' time; and wishing them a good voyage, I saw them go, agreeing with them about a signal they should hang out at their return, by which I should know them again when they came back, at a distance, before they came on shore. They went away with a fair gale42 on the day that the moon was at full, by my account in the month of October; but as for an exact reckoning of days, after I had once lost it I could never recover it again; nor had I kept even the number of years so punctually as to be sure I was right; though, as it proved when I afterwards examined my account, I found I had kept a true reckoning of years.。

英语课文鲁滨逊漂流记Robinson Crusoe, a classic of English literature, tellsthe tale of a man's incredible journey of survival and resilience. The story, penned by Daniel Defoe and publishedin 1719, has captivated readers for centuries with its themes of isolation, ingenuity, and the human spirit's unyielding strength.Our protagonist, Robinson Crusoe, is a man of Englishorigin with a thirst for adventure. Despite his family's wishes for him to lead a comfortable life, Crusoe's heart yearns for the sea and the unknown. His first voyage is a disaster, as he is captured by pirates and sold into slavery. However, his spirit remains unbroken, and he eventually escapes, finding refuge among the Portuguese.Undeterred, Crusoe embarks on another journey, which proves fateful. A violent storm batters the ship, and all aboard are lost except for him. He finds himself the sole survivor on an uninhabited island, a castaway in the truest sense.The narrative then shifts to Crusoe's life on the island, where he must rely on his wits and resourcefulness to survive. He constructs a shelter, learns to farm, and evendomesticates animals, creating a self-sufficient existence.His journal entries, which form a significant part of the text, provide a candid look into his thoughts and thepsychological challenges he faces.One of the most compelling aspects of "Robinson Crusoe" is its exploration of the human condition. Crusoe's isolation forces him to confront his own mortality and the nature of existence. His relationship with Friday, a native he rescues from cannibals, adds a layer of complexity to the story, raising questions about civilization, savagery, and the colonial mindset.Defoe's novel is not just a tale of survival but also a critique of societal norms and the individual's place within them. It delves into the themes of loneliness, the will to live, and the transformative power of the human spirit in the face of adversity."Robinson Crusoe" remains a timeless work, its narrative as gripping today as it was in the 18th century. It is a testament to the power of storytelling and the enduring appeal of a story that speaks to the explorer in each of us.。

Robinson's New Adventures on theUncharted IslandAfter spending years on the uncharted island, Robinson Crusoe had finally acclimatized to his solitary existence. He had built a comfortable shelter, hunted and gathered food, and even domesticated a few animals for companionship. However, the island held many secrets yet to be discovered, and Robinson's curiosity was as strong as ever.One sunny morning, while exploring the island'sinterior, Robinson stumbled upon a strange sight. Hidden deep within the dense foliage, he spied a clearing filled with strange-looking plants and a low, stone-made structure. His heart raced as he realized that this could be the remains of a civilization lost to time.Carefully, Robinson began to explore the clearing. The plants were unlike anything he had seen before, with colors that seemed to shift in the sunlight. The stone structure, though crumbling, displayed intricate carvings that told a story of a past civilization. Robinson was fascinated and determined to uncover more about this mysterious past.As he delved deeper into the clearing, Robinson made a startling discovery. Hidden beneath the stones was a small chest, sealed tight with ancient-looking locks. His heart pounding, Robinson set to work trying to unlock the chest. After several failed attempts, he finally succeeded, revealing a treasure trove of gold coins and jewels.Excited but cautious, Robinson realized that this treasure was a significant find. He knew that with this wealth, he could finally abandon the island and return to civilization. However, he also knew that the treasure was a responsibility. He decided to use it to help those in need and to preserve the memory of the lost civilization.With renewed purpose, Robinson began to prepare for his departure. He used the gold to build a sturdy boat and stocked it with provisions. He also took with him the strange plants from the clearing, hoping to introduce them to the world and share the knowledge of the lost civilization.After months of hard work, Robinson's boat was ready. With a farewell to his newfound friends on the island, he set sail, heading for the horizon. The journey was long andtreacherous, but Robinson was determined and resilient. Finally, after many weeks, he sighted land and knew that he was finally returning home.Back in civilization, Robinson's story was met with amazement and curiosity. He shared his experiences on the island, the lost civilization, and the treasure he had found. People were fascinated by his tale, and Robinson became a celebrity overnight.However, Robinson never forgot his original purpose. He used the treasure to establish a charity that helped those in need. He also donated funds to archaeological expeditions to further study the lost civilization. Robinson's legacy lived on through his charity and the knowledge he had shared about the island and its secrets.

《鲁滨逊漂流记》英语作文
《鲁滨逊漂流记》英语作文Robinson Crusoe was a man who found himself stranded on a deserted island after a shipwreck. Despite the isolation and hardships he faced, he managed to survive and even thrive on the island through his resourcefulness and determination. The story of his journey and the lessons he learned along the way have captivated readers for centuries.At the beginning of the story, Robinson Crusoe is a young man who is dissatisfied with his life and longs for adventure. He disobeys his father's wishes and sets out to sea, only to find himself the sole survivor of a shipwreck. Stranded on a remote island, he must learn to fend for himself and adapt to his new surroundings.One of the most striking aspects of Robinson Crusoe's story is his ability to overcome the challenges he faces. With no tools or supplies, he must find a way to build shelter, grow food, and protect himself from the elements. Through trial and error, he learns to fashion tools from the materials around him, including creating a pottery kiln and a canoe.As he becomes more self-sufficient, Robinson Crusoe also develops a deep appreciation for the natural world around him. He observes the patterns of the tides, the behavior of the animals, and the changing seasons, and learns to work in harmony with the environment. This connection with nature becomes a source of comfort and inspiration for him during his long years of isolation.Another key aspect of Robinson Crusoe's story is his spiritual journey. Initially, he is a man who is more concerned with material wealth and worldly success than with deeper spiritual matters. However, as he faces the challenges of his isolation, he begins to reflect on the meaning of life and his relationship with God. He keeps a journal, in which he documents his thoughts and experiences, and ultimately comes to a deeper understanding of himself and his place in the world.One of the most poignant moments in the story is when Robinson Crusoe discovers a human footprint in the sand, which fills him with a sense of both fear and hope. This encounter with another human being, even if it is only a trace, reminds him of the importance of human connection and the longing for companionship that he has been suppressing.As the story progresses, Robinson Crusoe's character undergoes aremarkable transformation. He becomes more self-reliant, more introspective, and more attuned to the natural world around him. He even manages to rescue a young man named Friday from a group of cannibals, and the two form a close bond that becomes a source of strength and support for both of them.Ultimately, the story of Robinson Crusoe is a testament to the human spirit and the power of resilience in the face of adversity. Through his journey, he learns valuable lessons about the importance of self-reliance, the beauty of the natural world, and the power of human connection. His story has inspired countless readers over the years and continues to be a beloved classic of literature.。

Reading Appreciation(二)编号:2 编写:贺聪聪审核:审批班组:姓名:组评:师评:My first sea journeyBefore I begin my story,I would like to tell you a little about myself.I was born in the year 1632,in the city of York in the north of England. My father was German,but he came to live and work in England. Soon after that,he married my mother,who was English. Her family name was Robinson,so,when I was born,they called me Robinson,after her.My father did well in his business and I went to a good school. He wanted me to get a good job and live a quiet,comfortable life. But I didn't want that. I wanted adventure and an exciting life.'I want to be a sailor and go to sea,'I told my mother and father. They were very unhappy about this.'Please don't go,'my father said. 'You won't be happy,you know. Sailors have a difficult and dangerous life. 'And because I loved him,and he was unhappy,I tried to forget about the sea.But I couldn't forget,and about a year later,I saw a friend in town. His father had a ship,and my friend said to me,'We're sailing to London tomorrow. Why don't you come with us?'And so,on September 1st,1651,I went to Hull,and the next day we sailed for London.But,a few days later,there was a strong wind. The sea was rough and dangerous,and the ship went up and down,up and down. I was very ill,and very afraid.'Oh,I don't want to die!'I cried. 'I want to live!If I live,I'll go home and never go to sea again!The next day the wind dropped,and the sea was quiet and beautiful again.'Well,Bob,'my friend laughed. 'How do you feel now?The wind wasn't too bad.'What!'I cried. 'It was a terrible storm. ''Oh,that wasn't a storm,'my friend answered. 'Just a little wind. Forget it. Come and have a drink. 'After a few drinks with my friend,I felt better. I forgot about the danger and decided not to go home. I didn't want my friends and family to laugh at me!I stayed in London for some time,but I still wanted to go to sea. So,when the captain of a ship asked me to go with him to Guinea in Africa,I agreed. And so I went to sea for the second time.It was a good ship and everything went well at first,but I was very ill again. Then,when we were near the Canary Is-lands,a Turkish pirate ship came after us. They were famous thieves of the sea at that time. There was a long,hard fight,but when it finished,we and the ship were prisoners.The Turkish captain and his men took us to Sallee in Moroc-co. They wanted tosell us as slaves in the markets there. But in the end the Turkish captain decided to keep me for himself,and took me home with him. This was a sudden and terrible change in my life. I was now a slave and this Turkish captain was my master.Task: 根据以下翻译在文中找出原句,并写在横线上1. 狂暴的大海危机四伏,船不断颠簸。

But how could I get on to it?In the end,I got in through a hole in the side,but it wasn't easy.当白天到来时,大海又恢复了平静。

英语小说阅读《鲁宾逊漂流记》选文(5)
英语小说阅读《鲁宾逊漂流记》选文(5)英语小说阅读《鲁宾逊漂流记》选文I cannot express the confusion I was in, though the joy of seeing a ship, and one that I had reason to believe was manned by my own countrymen, and consequently friends, was such as I cannot describe; but yet I had some secret doubts hung about me-I cannot tell from whence they came-bidding me keep upon my guard. In the first place, it occurred to me to consider what business an English ship could have in that part of the world, since it was not the way to or from any part of the world where the English had any traffic; and I knew there had been no storms to drive them in there in distress; and that if they were really English it was most probable that they were here upon no good design; and that I had better continue as I was than fall into the hands of thieves and murderers.Let no man despise the secret hints and notices of danger which sometimes are given him when he may think there is no possibility of its being real. That such hints and notices are given us I believe few that have made any observation of things can deny; that they are certain discoveries of an invisible world, and a converse46 of spirits, we cannot doubt; and if the tendency of them seems to be to warn us of danger, why should we not suppose they are from some friendly agent (whether supreme47, or inferior and subordinate, is not the question), and that they are given for our good?The present question abundantly confirms me in the justice of this reasoning; for had I not been made cautious by this secret admonition, come it from whence it will, I had been done inevitably48, and in a far worse condition than before, as you willsee presently. I had not kept myself long in this posture49 till I saw the boat draw near the shore, as if they looked for a creek50 to thrust in at, for the convenience of landing; however, as they did not come quite far enough, they did not see the little inlet where I formerly51 landed my rafts, but ran their boat on shore upon the beach, at about half a mile from me, which was very happy for me; for otherwise they would have landed just at my door, as I may say, and would soon have beaten me out of my castle, and perhaps have plundered52 me of all I had. When they were on shore I was fully38 satisfied they were Englishmen, at least most of them; one or two I thought were Dutch, but it did not prove so; there were in all eleven men, whereof three of them I found were unarmed and, as I thought, bound; and when the first four or five of them were jumped on shore, they took those three out of the boat as prisoners: one of the three I could perceive using the most passionate53 gestures of entreaty54, affliction, and despair, even to a kind of extravagance; the other two, I could perceive, lifted up their hands sometimes, and appeared concerned indeed, but not to such a degree as the first.I was perfectly confounded at the sight, and knew not what the meaning of it should be. Friday called out to me in English, as well as he could, "O master! you see English mans eat prisoner as well as savage mans." "Why, Friday," says I, "do you think they are going to eat them, then?" "Yes," says Friday, "they will eat them." "No no," says I, "Friday; I am afraid they will murder them, indeed; but you may be sure they will not eat them.All this while I had no thought of what the matter really was, but stood trembling with the horror of the sight, expecting every moment when the three prisoners should be killed; nay55, once I saw one of the villains56 lift up his arm with a great cutlass, asthe seamen call it, or sword, to strike one of the poor men; and I expected to see him fall every moment; at which all the blood in my body seemed to run chill in my veins57. I wished heartily58 now for the Spaniard, and the savage that had gone with him, or that I had any way to have come undiscovered within shot of them, that I might have secured the three men, for I saw no firearms they had among them; but it fell out to my mind another way. After I had observed the outrageous59 usage of the three men by the insolent60 seamen, I observed the fellows run scattering61 about the island, as if they wanted to see the country. I observed that the three other men had liberty to go also where they pleased; but they sat down all three upon the ground, very pensive62, and looked like men in despair. This put me in mind of the first time when I came on shore, and began to look about me; how I gave myself over for lost; how wildly I looked round me; what dreadful apprehensions63 I had; and how I lodged64 in the tree all night for fear of being devoured by wild beasts. As I knew nothing that night of the supply I was to receive by the providential driving of the ship nearer the land by the storms and tide, by which I have since been so long nourished and supported; so these three poor desolate65 men knew nothing how certain of deliverance and supply they were, how near it was to them, and how effectually and really they were in a condition of safety, at the same time that they thought themselves lost and their case desperate. So little do we see before us in the world, and so much reason have we to depend cheerfully upon the great Maker66 of the world, that He does not leave His creatures so absolutely destitute67, but that in the worst circumstances they have always something to be thankful for, and sometimes are nearer deliverance than they imagine; nay,are even brought to their deliverance by the means by which they seem to be brought to their destruction.It was just at high-water when these people came on shore; and while they rambled68 about to see what kind of a place they were in, they had carelessly stayed till the tide was spent, and the water was ebbed69 considerably70 away, leaving their boat aground. They had left two men in the boat, who, as I found afterwards, having drunk a little too much brandy, fell asleep; however, one of them waking a little sooner than the other and finding the boat too fast aground for him to stir it, hallooed out for the rest, who were straggling about: upon which they all soon came to the boat: but it was past all their strength to launch her, the boat being very heavy, and the shore on that side being a soft oozy71 sand, almost like a quicksand. In this condition, like true seamen, who are, perhaps, the least of all mankind given to forethought, they gave it over, and away they strolled about the country again; and I heard one of them say aloud to another, calling them off from the boat, "Why, let her alone, Jack72, can't you? she'll float next tide;" by which I was fully confirmed in the main inquiry73 of what countrymen they were. All this while I kept myself very close, not once daring to stir out of my castle any farther than to my place of observation near the top of the hill: and very glad I was to think how well it was fortified74. I knew it was no less than ten hours before the boat could float again, and by that time it would be dark, and I might be at more liberty to see their motions, and to hear their discourse, if they had any. In the meantime I fitted myself up for a battle as before, though with more caution, knowing I had to do with another kind of enemy than I had at first. I ordered Friday also, whom I had made an excellent marksman with his gun, to load himself with arms. Itook myself two fowling-pieces, and I gave him three muskets75. My figure, indeed, was very fierce; I had my formidable goat-skin coat on, with the great cap I have mentioned, a naked sword by my side, two pistols in my belt, and a gun upon each shoulder.It was my design, as I said above, not to have made any attempt till it was dark; but about two o'clock, being the heat of the day, I found that they were all gone straggling into the woods, and, as I thought, laid down to sleep. The three poor distressed76 men, too anxious for their condition to get any sleep, had, however, sat down under the shelter of a great tree, at about a quarter of a mile from me, and, as I thought, out of sight of any of the rest. Upon this I resolved to discover myself to them, and learn something of their condition; immediately I marched as above, my man Friday at a good distance behind me, as formidable for his arms as I, but not making quite so staring a spectre-like figure as I did. I came as near them undiscovered as I could, and then, before any of them saw me, I called aloud to them in Spanish, "What are ye, gentlemen?" They started up at the noise, but were ten times more confounded when they saw me, and the uncouth77 figure that I made. They made no answer at all, but I thought I perceived them just going to fly from me, when I spoke78 to them in English. "Gentlemen," said I, "do not be surprised at me; perhaps you may have a friend near when you did not expect it." "He must be sent directly from heaven then," said one of them very gravely to me, and pulling off his hat at the same time to me; "for our condition is past the help of man." "All help is from heaven, sir," said I, "but can you put a stranger in the way to help you? for you seem to be in some great distress. I saw you when you landed; and when you seemed to make application to the brutes79 that came with you, I saw oneof them lift up his sword to kill you.The poor man, with tears running down his face, and trembling, looking like one astonished, returned, "Am I talking to God or man? Is it a real man or an angel?" "Be in no fear about that, sir," said I; "if God had sent an angel to relieve you, he would have come better clothed, and armed after another manner than you see me; pray lay aside your fears; I am a man, an Englishman, and disposed to assist you; you see I have one servant only; we have arms and ammunition80; tell us freely, can we serve you? What is your case?" "Our case, sir," said he, "is too long to tell you while our murderers are so near us; but, in short, sir, I was commander of that ship-my men have mutinied against me; they have been hardly prevailed on not to murder me, and, at last, have set me on shore in this desolate place, with these two men with me- one my mate, the other a passenger-where we expected to perish, believing the place to be uninhabited, and know not yet what to think of it." "Where are these brutes, your enemies?" said I; "do you know where they are gone? There they lie, sir," said he, pointing to a thicket81 of trees; "my heart trembles for fear they have seen us and heard you speak; if they have, they will certainly murder us all." "Have they any firearms?" said I. He answered, "They had only two pieces, one of which they left in the boat." "Well, then," said I, "leave the rest to me; I see they are all asleep; it is an easy thing to kill them all; but shall we rather take them prisoners?" He told me there were two desperate villains among them that it was scarce safe to show any mercy to; but if they were secured, he believed all the rest would return to their duty. I asked him which they were. He told me he could not at that distance distinguish them, but he would obey my orders in anything I would direct. "Well," says I, "let us retreat out of theirview or hearing, lest they awake, and we will resolve further." So they willingly went back with me, till the woods covered us from them."Look you, sir," said I, "if I venture upon your deliverance, are you willing to make two conditions with me?" He anticipated my proposals by telling me that both he and the ship, if recovered, should be wholly directed and commanded by me in everything; and if the ship was not recovered, he would live and die with me in what part of the world soever I would send him; and the two other men said the same. "Well," says I, "my conditions are but two; first, that while you stay in this island with me, you will not pretend to any authority here; and if I put arms in your hands, you will, upon all occasions, give them up to me, and do no prejudice to me or mine upon this island, and in the meantime be governed by my orders; secondly82, that if the ship is or may be recovered, you will carry me and my man to England passage free."He gave me all the assurances that the invention or faith of man could devise that he would comply with these most reasonable demands, and besides would owe his life to me, and acknowledge it upon all occasions as long as he lived. "Well, then," said I, "here are three muskets for you, with powder and ball; tell me next what you think is proper to be done." He showed all the testimonies83 of his gratitude that he was able, but offered to be wholly guided by me. I told him I thought it was very hard venturing anything; but the best method I could think of was to fire on them at once as they lay, and if any were not killed at the first volley, and offered to submit, we might save them, and so put it wholly upon God's providence to direct the shot. He said, very modestly, that he was loath84 to kill them if he could helpit; but that those two were incorrigible85 villains, and had been the authors of all the mutiny in the ship, and if they escaped, we should be undone86 still, for they would go on board and bring the whole ship's company, and destroy us all. "Well, then," says I, "necessity legitimates87 my advice, for it is the only way to save our lives." However, seeing him still cautious of shedding blood, I told him they should go themselves, and manage as they found convenient.In the middle of this discourse we heard some of them awake, and soon after we saw two of them on their feet. I asked him if either of them were the heads of the mutiny? He said, "No." "Well, then," said I, "you may let them escape; and Providence seems to have awakened88 them on purpose to save themselves. Now," says I, "if the rest escape you, it is your fault." Animated89 with this, he took the musket I had given him in his hand, and a pistol in his belt, and his two comrades with him, with each a piece in his hand; the two men who were with him going first made some noise, at which one of the seamen who was awake turned about, and seeing them coming, cried out to the rest; but was too late then, for the moment he cried out they fired-I mean the two men, the captain wisely reserving his own piece. They had so well aimed their shot at the men they knew, that one of them was killed on the spot, and the other very much wounded; but not being dead, he started up on his feet, and called eagerly for help to the other; but the captain stepping to him, told him it was too late to cry for help, he should call upon God to forgive his villainy, and with that word knocked him down with the stock of his musket, so that he never spoke more; there were three more in the company, and one of them was slightly wounded. By this time I was come; and when they saw their danger, and that it was invain to resist, they begged for mercy. The captain told them he would spare their lives if they would give him an assurance of their abhorrence90 of the treachery they had been guilty of, and would swear to be faithful to him in recovering the ship, and afterwards in carrying her back to Jamaica, from whence they came. They gave him all the protestations of their sincerity that could be desired; and he was willing to believe them, and spare their lives, which I was not against, only that I obliged him to keep them bound hand and foot while they were on the island.下载文档。

鲁滨逊漂流记丹尼尔笛福1My first sea journeyBefore I begin my story,I would like to tell you a little about myself.I was born in the year 1632,in the city of York in the north of England. My father was German,but he came to live and work in England. Soon after that,he married my mother,who was English. Her family name was Robinson,so,when I was born,they called me Robinson,after her.My father did well in his business and I went to a good school. He wanted me to get a good job and live a quiet,com-fortable life. But I didn't want that. I wanted adventure and an exciting life.‘I want to be a sailor and go to sea,’I told my mother and father. They were very unhappy about this.‘Please don't go,’my father said. ‘You won't be happy,you know. Sailors have a difficult and dangerous life. ’And be-cause I loved him,and he was unhappy,I tried to forget about the sea.But I couldn't forget,and about a year later,I saw a friend in town. His father had a ship,and my friend said to me,‘We’re sailing to London tomorrow. Why don't you come with us?’And so,on September 1st,1651,I went to Hull,and the next day we sailed for London.But,a few days later,there was a strong wind. The sea was rough and dangerous,and the ship went up and down,up and down. I was very ill,and very afraid.‘Oh,I don't want to die!’I cried. ‘I want to live!If I live,I'll go home and never go to sea again!’The next day the wind dropped,and the sea was quiet and be autiful again.‘Well,Bob,’my friend laughed. ‘How do you feel now?The wind wasn't too bad. ’‘What!’I cried. ‘It was a terrible storm. ’‘Oh,that wasn't a storm,’my friend answered. ‘Just a lit-tle wind. Forget it. Come and have a drink. ’After a few drinks with my friend,I felt better. I forgot about the danger and decided not to go home.I didn't want my friends and family to laugh at me!I stayed in London for some time,but I still wanted to go to sea. So,when the captain of a ship asked me to go with him to Guinea in Africa,I agreed. And so I went to sea for the second time.It was a good ship and everything went well at first,but I was very ill again. Then,when we were near the Canary Is-lands,a Turkish pirate ship came after us. They were famous thieves of the sea at that time. There was a long,hard fight,but when it finished,we and the ship were prisoners.The Turkish captain and his men took us to Sallee in Moroc-co. They wanted to sell us as slaves in the markets there. But in the end the Turkish captain decided to keep me for himself,and took me home with him. This was a sudden and terrible change in my life. I was now a slave and this Turkish captain was my master.2Down the coast of AfricaFor two long years I lived the life of a slave. I worked in escape,but it was never possible. I thought about it day and night. My master liked to go fishing in a little boat,and he al-ways took me with him.A man called Moely,and a young boy also went with us.One day my master said to us,‘Some of my friends want to go fishing tomorrow. Get the boat ready. ’So we put a lot of food and drink on the boat,and the next morning,we waited for my master and his friends. But when my master arrived,he was alone.‘My friends don't want to go fishing today,’he said to me. ‘But you go with Moely and the boy,and catch some fish for our supper tonight. ’‘Yes,master,’I answered quietly,but inside I was excited. ‘Perhaps now I can escape,’I said to myself.My master went back to his friends and we took the boat out to sea. For a time we fished quietly,and then I moved carefully behind Moely and knocked him into the water. ‘Swim!’I cried. ‘Swim to the shore!’My master liked to shoot seabirds and so there were guns on the boat. Quickly,I took one of these guns. Moely was swim-ming after the boat and I shouted to him:Go back to the shore!You can swim there—it's not too far. I won't hurt you,but if you come near the boat,I'll shoot you through the head!’So Moely turned,and swam back to the shore as quickly as he could.Then I said to the boy,‘Xury,if you help me,I'll be a good friend to you. If you don't help me,I'll push you into the sea too. ’But Xury was happy to help me. ‘I'll go all over the world with you,’he cried.I wanted to sail to the Canary Islands,but I was afraid to go too far from the shore. It was only a small boat. And so we sailed on south for some days. We had very little water,and it was dangerous country here,with many wild animals. We were afraid,but we often had to go on shore to get more water. Once I used a gun to shoot a wild animal. I don't know what animal it was,but it made a good meal.For about ten or twelve days we sailed on south,down the coast of Africa. Then one day we saw some people on the shore—strange,wild people,who did not look friendly. By now we had very little food,and We really needed help. we were afraid,but we had to go on shore.At first,they were afraid of us,too. Perhaps white people never visited this coast. We did not speak their language,of course,so we used our hands and faces to show that we were hungry. They came with food for us,but then they moved away quickly. We carried the food to our boat,and they watched us. I tried to thank them,but I had nothing to give them.Just then two big wild cats came down to the shore from the mountains. I think they were leopards. The people were afraid of these wild cats,and the women cried out. Quickly,I took a gun,and shot one of the animals.The second wild cat ran back up into the mountains.Guns were new to these African people,and they were afraid of the loud noise and the smoke. But they were happy about the dead wild cat. I gave them the meat of the dead animal,and they gave us more food and water.We now had a lot of food and water,and we sailed on. Eleven days later we came near the Cape Verde Islands. We could see them,but we couldn't get near because there was no wind. We waited.Suddenly Xury called to me,‘Look,a ship!’He was right!We called and shouted and sailed our little boat as fast as we could. But the ship did not see us. Then I re-membered the guns which made a lot of smoke. A few minutes later the ship saw us and turned.When we were on the ship,the Portuguese captain listened to my story. He was going to Brazil and agreed to help me,but he wanted nothing for his help. ‘No,’he said,when I tried to pay him. ‘Perhaps,one day,someone will help me when I need it. ’But he gave me money for my boat,and for Xury,too. At first,I did not want to sell Xury as a slave,after all our danger-ous adventures together. But Xury was happy to go to the cap-tain,and the captain was a good man. ‘In ten years’time,’he said,‘Xury can go free. ’When we arrived in Brazil three weeks later,I said goodbye to the captain and Xury,left the ship,and went to begin a new life.3The storm and the shipwreckI stayed in Brazil and worked hard for some years. By then I was rich…but also bored. One day some friends came to me and said,‘We're going to Africa to do business. Why don't you come with us?We'll all be rich after this journey!’How stupid I was!I had an easy,comfortable life in Brazil,but,of course,I agreed. And so,in 1659,I went to sea again.At first,all went well,but then there was a terrible storm. For twelve days the wind and the rain didn't stop. We lost three men in the sea,and soon the ship had holes in its sides. ‘We’re all going to die this time,’I said to myself. Then one morning one of the sailors saw land,but the next minute our ship hit some sand just under the sea. The ship could not move and we were really in danger now. The sea was trying to break the ship into pieces,and we had very little time. Quickly,we put a boat into the sea and got off the ship. But the sea was very rough and our little boat could not live for long in that wild water.Half an hour later the angry sea turned our boat over and we were all in the water. I looked round for my friends,but I could see nobody. I was alone.That day I was lucky,and the sea carried me to the shore. I could not see the land,only mountains of water all around me. Then,suddenly,I felt the ground under my feet. Another mountain of water came,pushed me up the beach,and I fell on the wet sand.At first I was very thankful to be alive. Slowly,I got to my feet and went higher up the shore. From there,I looked out to sea. I could see our ship,but it was wrecked and there was no-body near it. There was nobody in the water. All my friends were dead. I was alive,but in a strange wild country,with no food,no water,and no gun.It was dark now and I was tired. I was afraid to sleep on the shore. Perhaps there were wild animals there. So I went up into a tree and I stayed there all night.4A new life on an islandWhen day came,the sea was quiet again. I looked for our ship and,to my surprise,it was still there and still in one piece. ‘I think I can swim to it,’I said to myself. So I walked down to the sea and before long,I was at the ship and was swimming round it. But how could I get on to it?In the end,I got in through a hole in the side,but it wasn't easy.There was a lot of water in the ship,but the sand under the sea was still holding the ship in one place. The back of the ship was high out of the water,and I was very tnankful for this be-cause all the ship's food was there. I was very hungry so I be-gan to eat something at once. Then I decided to take some of it back to the shore with me. But how could I get it there?I looked around the ship,and after a few minutes,I found some long pieces of wood. I tied them together with rope. Then I got the things that I wanted from the ship. There was a big box of food—rice,and salted meat,and hard ship's bread. I al-so took many strong knives and other tools,the ship's sails and ropes,paper,pens,books,and seven guns. Now I needed a little sail from the ship,and then I was ready. Slowly and carefully,I went back to the shore. It was difficult to stop my things from falling into the sea,but in the end I got everything on to the shore.Now I needed somewhere to keep my things.There were some hills around me,so I decided to build my-self a little house on one of them. I walked to the top of the highest hill and looked down,I was very unhappy,because I saw then that I was on an island. There were two smaller is-lands a few miles away,and after that,only the sea. Just the sea,for mile after mile after mile.After a time,I found a little cave in the side of a hill. In front of it,there was a good place to make a home. So,I used the ship's sails,rope,and pieces of wood,and after a lot of hard work I had a very fine tent. The cave at the back of my tent was a good place to keep my food,and so I called it my ‘kitchen’. That night,I went to sleep in my new home.The next day I thought about the possible dangers on the is-land. Were there wild animals,and perhaps wild people too,on my island?I didn't know,but I was very afraid. So I decided to build a very strong fence.I cut down young trees and put them in the ground,in a halfcircle around the front of my tent. I used many of the ship's ropes too,and in the end my fence was as strong as a stone wall. Nobody could get over it,through it,or round it.Making tents and building fences is hard work. I needed many tools to help me. So I decided to go back to the ship again,and get some more things.I went back twelve times,but soon after my twelfth visit there was another terrible storm. The next morning,when I looked out to sea,there was no ship.When I saw that,I was very unhappy. ‘Why am I alive,and why are all my friends dead?’I asked myself. ‘What will hap-pen to me now,alone on this island without friends?How can I ever escape from it?’Then I told myself that I was lucky—lucky to be alive,lucky to have food and tools,lucky to be young and strong. But I knew that my island was somewhere off the coast of South America. Ships did not often come down this coast,and I said to myself,‘I'm going to be on this island for a long time. ’So,on a long piece of wood,I cut these words:I CAME HERE ON 30TH SEPTEMBER 1659After that,I decided to make a cut for each day.5Learning to live aloneI still needed a lot of things. ‘Well,’I said,‘I'm going to have to make them. ’So,every day,I worked.First of all,I wanted to make my cave bigger. I carried out stone from the cave,and after many days' hard work I had a large cave in the side of the hill. Then I needed a table and a chair,and that was my next job. I had to work on them for a long time. I also wanted to make places to put all my food,and all my tools and guns. But every time I wanted a piece of wood,I had to cut down a tree. It was long,slow,difficult work,and during the next months I learnt to be very clever with my tools. There was no hurry.I had all the time in the world.I also went out every day,and I always had my gun with me. Sometimes I killed a wild animal,and then I had meat to eat.But when it got dark,I had to go to bed because I had no light. I couldn't read or write because I couldn't see. For a long time,I didn't know what to do. But in the end,I learnt how to use the fat of dead animals to make a light.The weather on my island was usually very hot,and there were often storms and heavy rain. The next June,it rained all the time,and I couldn't go out very often. I was also ill for some weeks,but slowly,I got better. When I was stronger,I began to go out again. The first time I killed a wild animal,and the second time I caught a big turtle.I was on the island for ten months before I visited other parts of it. During those months I worked hard on my cave and my house and my fence. Now I was ready to find out more about the rest of the island.First,I walked along the side of a little river. There,I found open ground without trees. Later,I cameto more trees with many different fruits. I decided to take a lot of the fruit,and to put it to dry in the sun for a time. Then I could keep it for many months.That night I went to sleep in a tree for the second time,and the next day I went on with my journey. Soon I came to an opening in the hills. In front of me,everything was green,and there were flowers everywhere. There were also a lot of differ-ent birds and animals. I saw that my house was on the worst side of the island. But I didn't want to move from there. It was my home now. I stayed away for three days,and then I came home. But I often went back to the other,greener side of the island.And so my life went on. Every month I learnt to do or to make something new. But I had troubles and accidents too. Once there was a terrible storm with very heavy rain. The roof of my cave fell in,and nearly killed me!I had to build it up again with many pieces of wood.I had a lot of food now. I cooked it over a fire or dried it in the sun. So I always had meat during the rainy months when I could not go out with a gun. I learnt to make pots to keep my food in. But I wanted very much to make a harder,stronger pot—a pot that would not break in a fire. I tried many times,but I could not do it. Then one day I was lucky. I made some new pots and put them in a very hot fire. They changed colour,but did not break. I left them there for many hours,and when they were cold again,I found that they were hard and strong. That night I was very happy. I had hot water for the first time on the island.By then,I also had my own bread. That was luck,too. One day I found a little bag. We used it on the ship,to keep the chickens' food in. There was still some of the food in the bag,and I dropped some of it onto the ground. A month later I saw something bright green there,and after six months I had a very small field of corn. I was very excited. Perhaps now I could make my own bread!It was easy to say,but not so easy to do. It is a lot of work to make bread from corn. Many people eat bread,but how many people can take corn from a field and make bread out of it without help?I had to learn and to make many new things,and it was a year before I cooked and ate my first bread.During all this time I never stopped thinking about escape. When I travelled across to the other side of the island,I could see the other islands,and I said to myself,‘Perhaps I can get there with a boat. Perhaps I can get back to England one day. ’So I decided to make myself a boat. I cut down a big tree,and then began to make a long hole in it. It was hard work,but about six months later,I had a very fine canoe. Next,I had to get it down to the sea. How stupid I was!Why didn't I think before I began work?Of course,the canoe was too heavy. I couldn't move it!I pulled and pushed and tried everything,but it didn't move. I was very unhappy for a long time after that.That happened in my fourth year on the island. In my sixth year I did make myself a smaller canoe,but I did not try to es-cape in it. The boat was too small for a long journey,and I did not want to die at sea. The island was my home now,not my prison,and I was just happy to be alive. A year or two later,I made myself a second canoe on the other side of the island. I also built myself a second house there,and so I had two homes.My life was still busy from morning to night. There were al-ways things to do or to make. I learnt to make new clothes for myself from the skins of dead animals. They looked very strange,it is true,but they kept me dry in the rain.I kept food and tools at both my houses,and also wild goats. There were many goats on the island,and I made fields with high fences to keep them in. They learnt to take food from me,and soon I had goat's milk to drink every day. I also worked hard in my cornfields. And so many years went by.6A footprintThen,one year,something strange and terrible happened. I often walked along the shore,and one day I saw something in the sand. I went over to look at it more care-fully,and stopped in sudden surprise.It was a footprint—the footprint of a man!Who could this be?Afraid,I looked around me. I listened. I waited. Nothing. I was more and more afraid. Perhaps this man was one of those wild people who killed and ate other men!I looked everywhere,but there was nobody,and no other foot-print. I turned and hurried home. ‘There's someone on my is-land,’I said to myself. ‘Perhaps he knows about me…Per-haps he's watching me now from behind a tree…Perhaps he wants to kill me. ’That night I couldn't sleep. The next day I got all my guns ready and I put more wood and young trees around my house. Nobody could see me now. But,after fifteen years alone on the island,I was afraid,and I did not leave my cave for three days.In the end,I had to go out to milk my goats. But for two years I was afraid. I stayed near my home and I never used my guns because I didn't want to make a noise. I could not forget the footprint,but I saw and heard nothing more,and slowly I began to feel happier.One day,a year later,I was over on the west side of the is-land. From there I could see the other islands,and I could also see a boat,far out to sea. ‘If you have a boat,’I thought,‘it's easy to sail across to this island. Perhaps that explains the foot-print—it was a visitor from one of the other islands. ’I began to move more freely around the island again,and built myself a third house. It was a very secret place in a cave. ‘No wild man will ever find that,’I said to myself.Then one year something happened which I can never forget. I was again on the west side of the island and was walk-ing along the shore. Suddenly,I saw something which made me feel ill. There were heads,arms,feet,and other pieces of men's bodies everywhere. For a minute,I couldn't think,and then I understood. Sometimes there were fights between the wild men on the other islands. Then they came here to my island with their prisoners,to kill them,cook them,and eat them. Slowly,I went home,but I was very angry. How could men do this?For many months I watched carefully for the smoke from fires,but I didn't see anything. Somehow the wild men came and went,and I never saw them. I was angry and afraid. I wanted to shoot them all,but there were many of them and on-ly one of me. ‘Perhaps I can shoot two or three,’I said to my-self,‘but then they will kill and eat me. ’Then,one morning in my twenty-third year on the island,I was out in my fields and I saw the smoke from a fire. Quickly,I went up the hill to watch.There were nine men around the fire,and they were cooking their terrible food. Then these wild men danced round the fire,singing and shouting. This went on for about two hours,and then they got into their boats and sailed away. I went down to the shore and saw the blood of the dead men on the sand. ‘The next timethey come,I'm going to kill them,’I said angrily.7Man FridayFor two years I never went anywhere without my gun. I felt lonely and afraid,and had many sleepless nights. One night there was a very bad storm,and I thought I heard the sound of guns out at sea. The next morning I looked out,and saw a ship. It was lying on its side not far from the shore. Quickly,I put my little boat in the water and sailed out to it.There were two dead men on the ship,but no one alive. The bodies of the other sailors were lost in the sea. I took some clothes and tools,and also a box of Spanish gold and silver money. I was a rich man now,but what use was money to me?I could not buy anything with it.I wanted people,a friend,somebody to talk to…somebody who could help me escape from my island. One morning I woke up and made a plan. ‘I'll try to catch one of the prisoners of the wild men,’I said to myself. ‘He'll be happy to be alive and perhaps he'll help me to escape. ’I watched day and night,but for a year and a half there were no boats.Then one day five boats came. There were about thirty men and they had two prisoners. They made their fire on the sand and danced round it. Then they killed one of the prisoners and began to cook their terrible meal. The second prisoner waited under the trees,with two men to watch him. Suddenly,the prisoner turned and ran. The two men ran after him,but the other wild men were busy round the fire and did not see what was happening.The prisoner ran like a wild goat,and soon I saw that he was coming near the bottom of my hill. As fast as I could,I ran down the hill and jumped out of the trees between the prisoner and the two wild men. I hit the first man with the wooden end of my gun and he fell down,but I had to shoot the second man. The poor prisoner did not move. He was afraid of the noise of my gun.I called to him and tried to show him that I was friendly. Slowly,he moved nearer to me,but just then the first wild man began to get up from the ground. Then the prisoner spoke and I understood that he wanted my sword. How happy I was to hear words again!I gave him my sword,and at once he cut off the head of his enemy.Hurriedly,we hid the dead bodies under some leaves,and then left quickly. I took my prisoner to my secret cave on the other side of the island and gave him food and drink. After that,he went to sleep.He was a fine young man,about twenty-five years old,tall and well-built,with a kind face and a nice smile. He had a brown skin,black hair,bright eyes and strong white teeth. I decided to give him the name of‘Man Friday’,because I first saw him on a Friday.When he woke up in the morning,he ran out to me. I was milking my goats in the field,and he got down on the ground and put his head near my foot. I understood that he was thank-ing me,and I tried to show him that I was his friend.I began to teach him to speak English,and soon he could say his name,‘Master’,and‘Yes’and‘No’. How good it was to hear a man's voice again!Later that day we went back to my first house. We went carefully along the beach,but there were no boats and no wild men. Just blood and bones all over the sand. I felt ill,but Fri-day wanted to eat the pieces of men's bodies which were still on the ground. I showed him that this was terrible for me,and he understood.When we got to my house,I gave Man Friday some trousers,and I made him a coat and a hat. He liked his new clothes very much. Then I made him a little tent to sleep in,but for a few weeks I always took my gun to bed with me. Per-haps Friday was still a wild man and would try to kill me in the night. At first,Friday was very afraid of my gun. Some-times he talked to it,and asked it not to kill him.Friday was a quick learner and his English got better day by day. He helped me with the goats and with the work in the cornfields,and soon we were good friends. I enjoyed teaching him and,most of all,having a friend to talk to. This was the happiest of all my years on the island.Friday and I lived together happily for three years. I told him the story of my adventures and about life in England,and he told me about his country and his people. One day we were at the top of the highest hill on the island,and we were looking out to sea. It was a very clear day and we could see a long way. Suddenly,Friday began to jump up and down,very excited.‘What's the matter?’I said.‘Look,Master,look!’Friday cried. ‘I can see my country. Look over there!’I looked,and there to the north-west,between the sea and the sky,was a long thin piece of land. I learnt later that it was the island of Trinidad,and that my island was in the mouth of the River Orinoco on the north coast of South America.I began to think again about escape. Perhaps Friday wanted to go home too. Perhaps together we could get to his country. But what then?Would Friday still be my friend,or would his people kill me and eat me?I took Friday to the other side of the island and showed him my big canoe. It still lay under the trees. It was very old now,and there were holes in the wood.‘Could a boat like this sail to your country,Friday?’I asked him.‘Oh yes,’he answered. ‘A boat like this can carry a lot of food and drink. ’‘Then we'll make another canoe like it,and you can go home in it,’I said.But Friday looked very unhappy. ‘Why are you angry with me?’he asked. ‘What have I done?Why do you want to send me home?’‘But I thought you wanted to go home,’I said.‘Yes. But you must come with me. Kill me if you want,but don't send me away from you!’Then I saw that Friday was a true friend,and so I agreed to go with him. We began work on the canoe at once. Friday chose the tree himself—he understood wood better than I did—and we cut it down. We worked hard and in a month the boat was finished. Two weeks later it was in the sea,and we began to get ready for our long journey.Escape from the islandI was now in my twenty—seventh year on the island,and I did not want to be there for another year. We worked hard to get the corn in,and to make a lot of bread. We had dried fruit and salted meat,and big pots to keep water in. One evening Friday went out to look for a turtle for meat and eggs. But in less than an hour he was back,and he looked very afraid.‘Master!Master!’he cried. ‘There's a great ship near the island,and men are coming to the shore in a boat!’I jumped up and ran with him down to the shore. To my great surprise,I saw that it was an English ship!But why was it here?English ships never came this way. Perhaps they were pirates!‘Don't let them see you,Friday!’I called. ‘We'll hide in the trees and watch. ’There were eleven men in the boat,but three of them were prisoners. Their arms were tied with rope,but their legs were free and they could walk. The other sailors pushed the three prisoners up the beach,laughing and shouting and hitting them. Then some of them sat down on the sand and began to drink. Others walked away to look at the island,and two men stayed to watch the boat. The three prisoners walked slowly a-long the beach and sat dowm under a tree,not far from us. They looked very unhappy.Very quietly,I came up behind them through the trees,and called out to them in English.‘Don't be afraid,’I said. ‘I'm an Englishman. Perhaps I can help you. ’The three men turned and looked at me. They did not an-swer at once;they were too surprised. Perhaps they thought I was a wild man myself,in my strange home—made clothes of animals’skins,and with my long hair and beard. Then the old-est man spoke.‘I am the captain of that ship,’he said,‘and these two men are my first and second officers. Last night there was a mutiny,and the seamen took the ship from me. Now they’re going to leave the three of us here,to die on this island. ’‘De these mutineers have guns?’‘Only two,’he answered,‘and they’ve left those on the boat. ’‘All righ,’I said. ‘We'll fight them,but if we get your ship back for you,you must take me back to England. ’The captain agreed immediately and thanked me very warm-ly for my help. Friday ran back to my house to get all the guns,and the captain and I made a plan.The first part was easy because the seamen were not ready for a fight. We shot the two men at the boat,and the captain shot another man. This man,Tom Smith,was the worst of them all and he began the mutiny on the ship. Then the cap-tain talked to the other five men,and they agreed to help him. They did not really want to be mutineers,but they were afraid of Tom Smith.‘Now,’I said to the captain,‘we must get back your ship. How many men are on it?’。

My first sea journey
Before I begin my story,I would like to tell you a little about myself.
I was born in the year 1632,in the city of York in the north of England. My father was German,but he came to live and work in England. Soon after that,he married my mother,who was English. Her family name was Robinson,so,when I was born,they called me Robinson,after her.
My father did well in his business and I went to a good school. He wanted me to get a good job and live a quiet,comfortable life. But I didn't want that. I wanted adventure and an exciting life.
'I want to be a sailor and go to sea,'I told my mother and father. They were very unhappy about this.
'Please don't go,'my father said. 'You won't be happy,you know. Sailors have a difficult and dangerous life. 'And because I loved him,and he was unhappy,I tried to forget about the sea.
But I couldn't forget,and about a year later,I saw a friend in town. His father had a ship,and my friend said to me,'We're sailing to London tomorrow. Why don't you come with us?'
And so,on September 1st,1651,I went to Hull,and the next day we sailed for London.
But,a few days later,there was a strong wind. The sea was rough and dangerous,and the ship went up and down,up and down. I was very ill,and very afraid.
'Oh,I don't want to die!'I cried. 'I want to live!If I live,I'll go home and never go to sea again!
The next day the wind dropped,and the sea was quiet and beautiful again.
'Well,Bob,'my friend laughed. 'How do you feel now?The wind wasn't too bad.
'What!'I cried. 'It was a terrible storm. '
'Oh,that wasn't a storm,'my friend answered. 'Just a little wind. Forget it. Come and have a drink. '
After a few drinks with my friend,I felt better. I forgot about the danger and decided not to go home. I didn't want my friends and family to laugh at me!
I stayed in London for some time,but I still wanted to go to sea. So,when the captain of a ship asked me to go with him to Guinea in Africa,I agreed. And so I went to sea for the second time.
It was a good ship and everything went well at first,but I was very ill again. Then,when we were near the Canary Is-lands,a Turkish pirate ship came after us. They were famous thieves of the sea at that time. There was a long,hard fight,but when it finished,we and the ship were prisoners.
The Turkish captain and his men took us to Sallee in Moroc-co. They wanted to
sell us as slaves in the markets there. But in the end the Turkish captain decided to keep me for himself,and took me home with him. This was a sudden and terrible change in my life. I was now a slave and this Turkish captain was my master.

2.when you are old
William Butler Yeats
When you are old and grey and full of sleep,
And nodding by the fire, take down this book,
And slowly read, and dream of the soft look,
Your eyes had once, and of their shadows deep;
How many loved your moments of glad grace,
And loved your beauty with love false or true,
But one man loved the pilgrim soul in you,
And loved the sorrows of your changing face;
And bending down beside the glowing bars,
Murmur, a little sadly, how love fled,
And paced upon the mountains overhead,
And hid his face amid a crowd of stars.
