They asked me if I wanted to go with them. I said, “Yes, I want to go with you.” 　　We started to prepare all the necessary things for the journey. Soon we were ready to go. I said goodbye to my wife and we started our journey. Our plan was to be back in two months. 　　We left Brazil on the first of September, 1655. Our ship was very big but we were only seventeen men. The ship was full of things for business. We had cups, glass, mirrors, knives and other products. 　　At the beginning of our journey the weather was very good, but very hot. In one week, a hurricane(飓风) came and it was threatening our ship for the next twelve days. After the hurricane passed, we saw we went quite far from our original(原来的) journey and were instead close to the northern part of Brazil near the Orinoco River. The ship was badly damaged, so we could no longer go to Africa. 　　The captain wanted us to go back and repair the ship, but I strongly disagreed with him. We went over the maps and decided the best thing to do was to go to Barbados and repair the ship there. 　　When we started this short trip, a second hurricane came. The next morning one of the sailors cried out, “Land?” and at that moment the ship stopped in shallow(浅的) water. We expected the ship to break apart at any moment because of the strong wind, so we all got into the small boat the ship carried. This was very dangerous because the seventeen of us were crowded in the boat, and it had no sail. 　　The waves were very big. The wind was extremely strong. The wind pushed us to big rocks. We knew the crash was close. 　　Suddenly, a huge wave appeared and overturned the boat. I was covered with water and couldn't breathe. I couldn't see the others or the boat. But I saw a little beach between the rocks. 　　Another wave carried me to the beach. I tried to get up. I tried to go further the sea. I was able to move ten metres up. I was safe. But my arms and legs were very weak. I fell down and I was lying on the beach. (　　)1.Why did the writer and his friends go to Africa? A.To leave their wives. B.To earn some money.
