He jumped in the water and swam. He was halfway across when he turned to look back. A high bony fin (鳍) was cutting through the water toward him. He put his face in the water and kicked and splashed himself 7 as fast as he could. The shore was near now. He lifted his head again to 8 and he saw the shore very near. From behind he left the water rush toward him, almost pushing him, helping him. And then a great gray body hit him and almost rolled him over in the water.

But now how could he make the sharks move out to sea? If they swam out to sea he could jump in and get to shore 1 they saw him. He saw the sharks rolling and playing. Their hunger was now gone and they were killing for fun. How could he make them move away? He drew his knife from his belt. Sharks can 2 blood, he thought. He put the knife against his leg and cut deep into it. The blood ran out and he caught it on his white shirt. When the shirt was red and wet he tied some cloth around his leg to 3 the flow of blood. He then tied a long piece of cloth to the shirt, threw it into the water and 4 it with the piece of cloth. The sharks smelled the blood and came running toward the shirt.
