Jason Lewis, 40, crossed five continents , two oceans and a sea to become the first person to circumnavigate the globe under his own steam. He finally returned to the UK on Saturday, crossing the Greenwich Meridian Line, in his custom-designed, 26 ft (8 m), pedal-powered boat, “Moksha”. It was the same point where his journey began on 12 July, 1994 when he was just 26 years old. Jason used a variety of modes of transport during his epic journey, including cycling, swimming, kayaking, and in-line skating. His route took him west from Britain to the USA and then on to Australia, Asia, and Africa before returning to Europe from the east. The journey was not without dangers: in Colorado Jason was run over by a drunk driver while in-line skating at the side of the road. He spent six weeks in hospital and nearly had a limb amputated. As well as surviving the car accident, Jason was robbed and beaten several times on his journey, chased by a giant crocodile in Australia, and arrested by the Egyptian military as a suspected spy. But on the way he has raised money fro childrens charities around the world as well as developing an education program for schoolchildren based on his travels. What now for the world traveler? Jason is happy to be back and may hang up his boots for a while. “Ive seen enough deserts. Ive missed green rolling hills and cozy pubs, sitting by the fire drinking a pint of warm beer, ” said Jason. “I do miss British humor. Its nice to be with people who take the Mickey out of each other.”Part II Bkey words:ace 一流选手racing driver 赛车手Formula 1一级方程式赛车Formula One, also known as Formula 1 or F1 and referred to officially as the FIA Formula One World Championship, is the highest class of single-seater（单座车） auto racing.World Champion 世界冠军vocabulary:phenomenal 非凡的，杰出的secure 争取到，安全的consecutive 连续的lap （跑道，赛道）圈reputed 据说Spa 斯帕（比利时东部城镇，以其矿泉著称）Ferrari 法拉利（世界上最闻名的赛车和运动跑车的生产厂家， 总部在意大利的摩德纳）be widely recognized as 被公认为The youngest double formula 1 world champion 最年轻的两次蝉联F1世界冠军的车手phenomenal record 惊人的记录speak for itself 不言而喻，足以说明问题retired from 从退休secured by 被取得at Spa in Belgium 比利时的斯帕赛道accumulate enough points 积累了足够的得分seal the deal 搞定To reach the point where it is a virtual certainty that a given thing will happen. hold the records 保持记录German ace Michael Schumacher is widely recognized as being the worlds best ever racing driver.
