　　原文：

　　A couple from Miami, Bill and Simone Butler, spent sixty-six days in a life-raft***救生艇*** in the seas of Central America after their boat sank.

　　Twenty-one days after they left Panama in their boat, Simony, they met some whales***鯨魚***. “They started to hit the side of the boat,” said Bill, “and then suddenly we heard water.” Two minutes later, the boat was sinking. They jumped into the life-raft and watched the boat go under the water.

　　For twenty days they had tins of food, biscuits, and bottles of water. They also had a fishing-line and a machine to make salt water into drinking water — two things which saved their lives. They caught eight to ten fish a day and ate them raw***生的***. Then the line broke. “So we had no more fish until something very strange happened. Some sharks***鯊魚*** came to feed, and the fish under the raft were afraid and came to the surface. I caught them with my hands.”

　　About twenty ships passed them, but no one saw them. After fifty days at sea their life-raft was beginning to break up. Then suddenly it was all over. A fishing boat saw them and picked them up. They couldn’t stand up.

　　So the captain carried them onto his boat and took them to Costa Rica. Their two months at sea was over.

　　答案：

　　這是一篇關於一對夫婦如何遇到海難，然後在海上的救生艇上生活了66天后獲救的小故事。

　　1. C。在第二自然段的第1句就告訴我們they left Panama, Simony, they met some whales 說他們是在Simony 旅遊時遇見Whales.

　　2. B。我們從第二自然段得知They started to hit the side of the boat,也就是說是the whales broke the side of the boat。

　　3. D。在他們的船沉沒之後，the couple是一直待在船上直至獲救的，而不是一直都在jumped into the life-raft。

　　4. B。根據第3段的第2句They also had a fishing-line and a machine to make salt water into drinking water-two things which saved their lives可知：a fishing-line 和 a machine救了他們的命。

　　5. D。由最後一段After fifty days at sea...我們知道：the couple是太虛弱所以不能站起來，是由船長carried them onto his boat, 而救生艇早在出事後的50天就壞掉了，而不是獲救當天壞的，所以A、B、C都可以排除，D項為正確選項。
