Low grey clouds were drifting across the sky and there was a cold damp wind blowing off the sea. It had rained in the night and water was dripping from the bare trees that lined the streets .I was glad that I was wearing a thick coat. There was no sign of a call box,nor was there anyone at that early hour I could ask.I had thought I might find a shop selling the Sunday paper or a milkman doing his job, but the town was completely dead.Then suddenly I found what I was looking for. There was a small post office ,and it was almost hidden from sight in a dark narrow street next to which was the towns only public call box, which badly needed a coat of paint. I hurried forward but stopped in astonishment when I saw through the dirty glass that there was a man inside. He was very fat, and was wearing a cheap blue plastic raincoat and rubber boots. I could not see his face-he was bending forward over the phone with his back pressed agaist the glass and didnt even raise his head at the sound of my coming nearer and nearer.

It may be walking, cycling or swimming, or in winter, skating or skiing. It may be a game of some kind football, hockey(曲棍球), golf, or tennis. It may be mountaineering. Those who have a passion (热情) for climbing high and difficult mountains are often looked upon with astonishment(惊讶). Why are some men and women willing to suffer cold and hardship, and to take risks in high mountains? This astonishment is caused, probably, by the difference between mountaineering and other forms of activity to which men give their leisure. Mountaineering is a sport and not a game. There are no man-made rules, as there are for such games as golf and football. There are, however, rules of different kind which it would be dangerous to ignore, but it is this freedom from man-made rules that makes mountaineering attractive to many people. If we compare mountaineering and other more familiar sports, we might think that one big difference is that mountaineering is not a “team game.” We may well be mistaken in this. There are, it is true, no “matches” between “teams” of climbers, but when climbers are on a rock face, linked by a rope on which their lives may depend, there is obviously teamwork. The mountain climber knows that he may have to fight forces that are stronger and more powerful than man. He has to fight the forces of nature. His sport requires high mental and physical qualities. It is not unusual for men of fifty or sixty to climb the highest mountains in the Alps(阿尔卑斯山脉). He may take more time than younger men, but they probably climb with more skill and less waste of effort, and they certainly experience equal enjoyment.26).

The ship went down in the sea. One man left the ship. He jumped into the sea and the waves carried him to a small island. The man was Robinson Crusoe. Robinson looked around the island but there was nobody in sight, he was all alone on a small island in the middle of the sea. He was cold and hungry.
