26、   I was very happy to be with my family again. But I am a traveller by nature and after only two months I looked for another job as a ship's doctor. I left my wife and children with a nice new house and enough money for them to live comfortably. I was lucky that my wife is an excellent mother and can organize all the family alone.

And so on 20th June 1702 I set off for Surat, in India, on a ship called the Adventure. And indeed “adventure” was an appropriate (恰当的) name for that ship, and for everything that happened on that journey.

Surat is on the other side of the world and the first part of our journey went well. But when we sailed through the Indian Ocean there were some terrible storms. The winds were so strong that they sent our ship completely off course (偏离航线). We had no idea where we were.

Finally, when the storms stopped, we saw an island. We had no more drinking water so the captain sent me to find some fresh water on the island. I set off with some other men in a small boat. And when we arrived I explored the island by myself while the men looked for water.

That was a big mistake. When I returned there were no men and no boats! Then I saw them. Rowing desperately (绝望) back to our ship with an enormous giant following them in the sea! They were very frightened.

I ran as fast as I could in the opposite direction. I then climbed a big hill and when I looked around I saw fields and fields of very long grass. Then I saw other giants working in the fields.

"So this is my destiny," I told myself "On my last journey I was a giant on an island of tiny people and now I am a tiny person on an island of giants!" It was not a nice feeling.

I was desperate and hid behind an enormous tree. I had to think of a plan but at that moment one of the giants saw me.

"This is the end." I thought for the second time in my life, as the giant approached (靠近) .

"Why did I leave the comfort of my home and family to travel again?" I asked myself.

The giant bent down and picked me up and I felt like one of the tiny Lilliputians.

"Please don't hurt me," I called to the giant.

He answered in a language I didn't understand. Then he lifted me to his face and looked at me with great interest. I thought he wanted to eat me but he put me into his handkerchief (手帕) and carried me home.

【1】Where did “I” set off for on 20th June 1702?

A．Surat, in India.

B．Lilliput.

C．Home.

D．Adventure.

【2】How did “I” feel by saying “This is the end”?

B．People on the ship lost their way because of the storms.

C．On the last journey, “I” was a tiny person on an island of giants.

D．The giant spoke the same language as “I” did.

【4】What can we infer(推断) from the passage?

A．The giant would eat him.

B．The giant would have a further study on him.

C．He could run away easily later.

D．He would go back to Lilliput to be a giant.

27、Young people and older people do not always agree. They sometimes have different ideas about living, working and playing. But in one special program in New York State, adults and teenagers live together in a friendly way.
