50、ghs journey lasted over forty days, was very hot and they had very little food and water. It was because Captain Bligh was a great leader that they survived.DZ: Now that Ive heard about it I am very impressed. All those men pushed together in a very small boat, it must have been terrible for them to

51、 stay friendly. Meanwhile they were being driven mad by lack of fresh water and there was all that salt water all around them. Thats the reason I think it was the greatest sea escape.LP: When you put it that way I suppose it was a great achievement. Captain Bligh was certainly excellent in the way h

52、e kept the men occupied and tried to take their minds off their troubles. In addition he treated everyone the same when it came to food or water.

53、HomeworkFinish exercises in workbook.After class write a report to your letter explaining to him why you think Captain Bligh should or should not receive the medal. Sample letterDear Sir，I think Captain Bligh should certainly receive a special medal for his amazing voyage across the sea to Timor. Th

54、is is a journey that could not have been completed without great navigational skill. In addition Captain Bligh did not lose one man. First, he showed his leadership qualities by sharing the food and water fairly with the men in the boat. Everyone was treated equally and this made for good feeling be

55、tween the members of the boat.Second, he kept everyone in the boat cheerful by discussing what they would do when they arrived safely. No one was allowed to think about what might happen if they did not arrive!Third, he kept them occupied by organizing the complicated mathematical calculations neede

56、d to find their position at sea. The crew who had taken over the “Bounty” had left Captain Bligh with only a quadrant and a compass. This meant that numerous calculations were needed to find their correct position. Captain Bligh regularly and each person was given a different activity was important

57、because it stopped the men from thinking about how little food and water there was.So I hope you will give Captain Bligh this medal. He has shown leadership, fairness and concern for his crew and helped them return to England safely. Yours,(your name)The Fourth Period PracticingLearning about LanguageTea
