先閱讀短文,然后判斷正誤并且討論后面的問題:
sailors race across the seasPre-reading
Imagine that you are sailing on the sea. How would you feel? Then suddenly there came a storm, and the boat was tossed up and down by the waves, how would you feel? Find out whether the sailors feel the same.
STRONG winds drove the angry seas to great heights. Waves of freezing water knocked against the boats, trying to sweep them away. Icy drops of water hurt the sailors' eyes. * Not only did they have to deal with storms, but whales and icebergs too. *
* Under such hard conditions, most people would have only the most basic of thoughts: survival. But for the 97 people competing in the round-the-world Volvo Ocean Race (VOR), the desire for victory means that speed is constantly (經(jīng)常地)played against safety. *
During the sailing, sailors also regularly record data (資料)that help scientist get oceanic (海洋的 )conditions.“Climbers do the Qomolangma (珠穆朗瑪峰), divers do the deep sea, and sailors do the Whitbread (called the VOR since 2001 - 2002)”, said sailor Paul Cayard during the 1997-98 race.
On September 23, 2001, eight boats left Southampton, England for the first VOR. For nine months, world-class racers battled against each other on the open seas (外海,公海).
Sailors spent weeks at a time driving their boats to the limit--24 hours a day. They had little sleep and no fresh food. When they reached the next pert, the race didn't stop. However, tired sailors did get a chance to rest and prepare for the next part.
After weeks of struggling at sea, the first things these tired men and women wanted were the most basic of human needs.
“The first things are a bottle of beer, followed by some nice fresh food, and then a hot shower,”said one team captain, Katie Pettibone. Everyone was short on sleep, so sleep was also a first choice.“But”, Pettibone said,“it's not al. ways easy to catch up.”
“You can' t fall asleep because your body is still on the working system,”she said. *“It takes a while to get that.”*
Stopovers (中途停留)were up to two and a half weeks long, so most of the crew members had a chance to get some real rest before their hard work began again.
Keeping healthy during the breaks was still important for the racers.“We keep working out to keep our fitness level high,”said Pettibone.
About a week before the start of the next part, they had to start getting ready again. They stored the boat with food, made race plans and tested new sails.
The nine-month race finally finished in Kiel, Germany, in June 2002. After more than 52,000 kilometres, four oceans, nine countries, and I0 ports, the German boat re- turned home as the winner of the first VOR.
Notes: 1. Southhampton: 南安普頓 (英國(guó)城市)
2. Kiel:基爾 (德國(guó)北部城市)
True or False
(1)During the race, the conditions are often challenging, so what the sailors think about is safety.
(2)The round-the-world sailing race in 1989-1990 was called VOR.
(3)When they reached the stopovers, every crew member could enjoy a deep and long sleep.
(4)The word“crew”in this story means sailor.
(5)This VOR event began and ended both in Germany.
