山东省枣庄市薛城区2020-2021学年高二下学期英语期中考试试卷
Lt Zachary Mayo, a soldier in the USA Navy, woke up and couldn't get back to sleep. He felt too hot. He got off his bed quietly so as not to wake his shipmates. He put on his blue coat over his shorts and T-shirt- he had been sleeping in, and left for the deck (甲板).
Zachary Mayo went up onto the deck. It was two o'clock on a Friday morning. He breathed in the fresh air and looked up at the stars in the clear night sky. And then, without thinking, he leaned out too far and lost his footing. Before he knew it, he was in the water. He tried to draw attention by shouting, but he didn't succeed. He watched the huge ship disappearing into the night. Not one of the 4,700 crew on board had seen him fall, and for nearly two days, none of his shipmates realized that he was gone.
Mayo had been taught how to make clothes into life jackets in a training camp, so he took off his coat and tied its arms and legs. Then he waved his "life jacket" over his head and filled it with air so he could stay afloat (漂浮的). He did this many times during his floating on the sea.
During his floating on the sea for the following 34 hours, he didn't see many search planes or any boats, and twice he had seen sharks swimming around him. He was in the water for both nights. He was attacked by small fish and he was slowly dying of thirst. Mayo was sure he would die, but he thought of his family-his parents, wife and two-year-old son. "I can never give up with so much love," he said to. He wished miracle (奇迹) would happen.
Finally, he felt asleep. When he woke up, his coat were floating away from him. Feeling the death was approaching closer and closer, he tore off his T-shirt and shorts in a fit of madness and prepared to die.
