问题 共用题干Mau Piailug,Ocean Navigator
Mau sailed from Hawaii to Tahiti using traditional methods.
In early 1976,Mau Piailug,a fisherman,led an expedition in which he sailed a tradi-tional Polynesian boat across 2,500 miles of ocean from Hawaii to Tahiti.The Polynesian Voyaging Society had organised the expedition.Its purpose was to find out if seafarers（海员） in the distant past could have found their way from one island to the other without naviga-tional instruments,or whether the islands had been populated by accident.At the time,Mau was the only man alive who knew how to navigate just by observing the stars,the wind and the sea.
He had never before sailed to Tahiti,which was a long way to the south.However,he understood how the wind and the sea behave around islands,so he was confident he could find his way.The voyage took him and his crew a month to complete and he did it without a compass or charts.
His grandfather began the task of teaching him how to navigate when he was still a baby.He showed him pools of water on the beach to teach him how the behaviour of the waves and wind changed in different place.Later,Mau used a circle of stones to memorise the positions of the stars.Each stone was laid out in the sand to represent a star.
The voyage proved that Hawaii's first inhabitants came in small boats and navigated by reading the sea and the stars.Mau himself became a keen teacher,passing on his traditional secrets to people of other cultures so that his knowledge would not be lost.He explained the positions of the stars to his students,but he allowed them to write things down because he knew they would never be able to remember everything as he had done.
选项 At the time of his voyage,Mau had unique navigational skills.A:RightB:WrongC:Not mentioned
答案A
解析题干意为“玛乌航行的时候，他有独特的航行技术。”关键词是unique navi-gational skills。依据此关键词组，可在文中第一段最后一句找到相关叙述：“At the time, Mau was the only man alive who knew how to navigate just by observing the stars,the wind and the sea.”（在那时，玛乌是在世的人中唯一一个仅仅通过观察星星、风和海洋来远航的人。）由此可知，当时来说，玛乌的航行技术的确是独特的，故此题说法为“正确”的。 题干意为“玛乌很熟悉塔希提岛周围的海洋。”关键词是Tahiti。依据此关键词，可在文中第二段前两句找到相关叙述：“He had never before sailed to Tahiti, which was a long way to the south.However,he understood how the wind and the sea behave around islands, so he was confident he could find his way.”（他从来没有航行到过塔希提岛，从塔希提岛到南方是一段很长的路程。然而他知道岛周围的风和海洋是怎么活动的，所以他自信可以找到路。）由此可知，虽然玛乌没有去过这个岛，但是他很熟悉海洋，故此题说法是“正确”的。 题干意为“玛乌买不起罗盘和图表。”关键词是compass和charts。依据关键词，可在文中第二段最后一句找到相关叙述：“The voyage took him and his crew a month to complete and he did it without a compass or charts.”（这次航行要花费他和船员们一个月的时间，而且他们航行的时候没有罗盘和图表。）由此可知，他们航行确实用不到罗盘和图表，但是文中并没提到玛乌买不起这些工具，故此说法为“未提及”的。 题干意为“玛乌从祖父那里学到了航海技术。”关键词是grandfather。依据此关健词，可在文中第三段第一句找到相关叙述：“His grandfather began the task of teaching him how to navigate when he was still a baby.”（当他还很小的时候，他的祖父就开始教他航海。）故此题说法为“正确”的。 题干意为“玛乌用石头记忆天空中星星的位置。”关键词是stones和stars。 依据关键词，可在文中第三段倒数第二句找到相关叙述：“Later, Mau used a circle of stones to memorise the positions of the stars.”（之后，玛乌用一圈石头来记忆星星的位置。）故此题说法是“正确”的。 题干意为“夏威夷最早的居民能读写。”关键词是first inhabitants of Ha-waii。依据关键词可在文中最后一段第一句找到相关叙述：“The voyage proved that Hawaii's first inhabitants came in small boats and navigated by reading the sea and the stars.”（此次航行证明，夏威夷最早的居民是乘小船来到这里的，并通过观察海洋和星空来航行。）文中的 reading是观察的意思，除此之外并没有提到这些最早的居民会不会读写，故此说法是“未提及”的。 题干意为“玛乌希望自己的学生们能立刻记住星星的位置。”关键词是 students。依据此关键词，可在文中最后一句找到相关叙述：“He explained the positions of the stars to his students,but he allowed them to write things down because he knew they would never be able to remember everything as he had done.”（他向学生们解释星星的位置， 但他允许学生把知识点写下来，因为他知道他们不可能像他一样记住所有东西。）故此题说法为“错误”的。
