The American ship to Yokohama left the evening before. Phileas Fogg was going to catch it. He found a small boat. But the owner John thought it was impossible for his boat to go to Yokohama. Phileas Fogg gave him a lot of money. In the end, John agreed to try.
An hour later, they were on their way in the small boat. Traveling 800 miles on a small boat was a dangerous thing to do. It was even more dangerous at the time of the year because the wind was stronger than usual.
The boat was going as fast as it could. Then, a storm was coming from the south. John took action right away. He asked the people to close every door and window to stop the water from getting into the boat. All that day, large waves and strong wind pushed the boat. Toward evening, the wind changed direction and blew across the boat. The waves now hit the boat from the side and this was very dangerous. As night came, the storm grew stronger.
It was an awful night. Sometimes, the waves came right over the boat. When daylight came, the storm was almost over, and the day was quite calm. It was the eleventh of November, and they were about one hundred miles from Shanghai. Phileas Fogg had to be in Shanghai that evening to catch the ship to Yokohama.
They worked as hard as possible, but the little boat could not make it in time. As they came into the harbor (港, 湾) at Shanghai, they saw the American ship leaving.

A. ②④③① B. ②④①③ C. ④①③② D. ④②①③
29. What do the underlined words “make it” in the last paragraph mean?
A. Catch the ship. B. Fight the storm. C. Find the direction. D. Get the owner.
30. What might Phileas Fogg say at the end of the story?
A. What a surprise! B. How strange! C. What a pity! D. How exciting!
【答案】27. D 28. B 29. A 30. C
【解析】

【27题详解】

【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据“The American ship to Yokohama left the evening before. Phileas Fogg was going to catch it. He found a small boat...Phileas Fogg gave him a lot of money.”,“Then, a storm was coming from the south.”和“As they came into the harbor (港, 湾) at Shanghai, they saw the American ship leaving.”可知,首先Phileas Fogg决定追赶美国船,然后他找到了小船并付了很多钱,于是他乘船遇到了大风暴,最后抵达上海,但错过了美国船,正确顺序是②④①③。故选B。
【29题详解】
词句猜测题。根据“They worked as hard as possible, but the little boat could not make it in time. As they came into the harbor (港, 湾) at Shanghai, they saw the American ship leaving.”可知,他们到达上海时,美国船已经离开了,他们没有赶上,make it是指赶上那艘船。故选A。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据“As they came into the harbor (港, 湾) at Shanghai, they saw the American ship leaving.”可知,Fogg到上海后发现正在追赶的船已经开走,表明他错过了船,感到遗憾,所以他可能会说“真可惜!”故选C。

The American ship to Yokohama left the evening before. Phileas Fogg was going to catch it. He found a small boat. But the owner John thought it was impossible for his boat to go to Yokohama. Phileas Fogg gave him a lot of money. In the end, John agreed to try.
An hour later, they were on their way in the small boat. Traveling 800 miles on a small boat was a dangerous thing to do. It was even more dangerous at the time of the year because the wind was stronger than usual.
The boat was going as fast as it could. Then, a storm was coming from the south. John took action right away. He asked the people to close every door and window to stop the water from getting into the boat. All that day, large waves and strong wind pushed the boat. Toward evening, the wind changed direction and blew across the boat. The waves now hit the boat from the side and this was very dangerous. As night came, the storm grew stronger.
It was an awful night. Sometimes, the waves came right over the boat. When daylight came, the storm was almost over, and the day was quite calm. It was the eleventh of November, and they were about one hundred miles from Shanghai. Phileas Fogg had to be in Shanghai that evening to catch the ship to Yokohama.
They worked as hard as possible, but the little boat could not make it in time. As they came into the harbor (港, 湾) at Shanghai, they saw the American ship leaving.
Taken from Around the World in Eighty Days
27. Why did John agree to take Phileas Fogg on his boat?
