每日一篇新概念 -- 第二册第三十三课（10月9日作业）

学习课文中女孩的顽强精神！

在这个熙攘拥挤的世界，尽管你身边也有爱你、试图保护你的亲人，可根本上，我们每一个人都是孤立无援的，就象这个溺水的女孩。只有象她一样，靠着自己顽强的毅力自救，奋力游向自己心中的海岸，我们才可以逃出一线生机，并最终在自由安全的陆地上行走。

对不起，离题了。不知怎的生出这般感慨。

（课文本身时序有问题：夜晚过去后女孩才开始往岸边游，游了八迈之后，岸边的灯居然还是亮着的？！她的8 miles世界纪录搞不好可以保持几十个世纪了 ---- 我边读边惦记着这件事。）

Lesson 33 Out of the darkness



Nearly a week passed before the girl was able to explain what had happened to her. One afternoon she set out from the coast in a small boat and was caught in a storm. Towards evening, the boat struck a rock and the girl jumped into the sea. Then she swam to the shore after spending the whole night in the water. During that time she covered a distance of eight miles. Early next morning, she saw a light ahead. She knew she was near the shore because the light was high up on the cliffs. On arriving at the shore, the girl struggled up the cliff towards the light she had seen. That was all she remembered. When she woke up a day later, she found herself in hospital.
