共用题干Mau Piailug,Ocean NavigatorMau 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.Mau expected his students to remember the positions of the stars immediately.A:RightB:WrongC:Not mentioned
共用题干Seeing the World Centuries AgoIf you enjoy looking through travel books by such familiar authors as Arthur Frommer or Eugene Fodor,it will not surprise you to learn that travel writing has a long and venerable history.Almost from the earliest annals of recorded time individuals have found ready audi-ences for their accounts of journeys to strange and exotic locales.One of the earliest travel writers,a Greek geographer and historian named Strabo,lived around the time of Christ.Though Strabo is known to have traveled from east of the Black Sea west to Italy and as far south as Ethiopia,he also used details gleaned from other writers to extend and enliven his accounts.His multivolumed work Geography provides the only sur-viving account of the cities,peoples,customs,and geographical peculiarities of the whole known world of his time.Two other classic travel writers,the Italian Marco Polo and the Moroccan Ibn Battutah, lived in roughly the same time period.Marco Polo traveled to China with his father and uncle in about A.D.1275 and remained there 16 or 17 years,visiting several other countries during his travels.When Marco returned to Italy he dictated his memoirs,including stories he had heard from others,to a scribe,with the resulting book Ⅱ milione being an instant success.Though difficult to attest to the accuracy of all he says,Marco's book impelled Europeans to begin their great voyages of exploration.Ibn Battutah's interest in travel began on his required Muslim journey to Mecca in 1325, and during his lifetime he journeyed through all the countries where Islam held sway.His travel book the Rihlah is a personalized account of desert journeys,court intrigues,and even the effect of the Back Death in the various lands he visited.In almost 30 years of traveling it is estimated that Ibn Battutah covered more than 75,000 miles.Ibn Battutah traveled______.A:to ChinaB:to EthiopiaC:throughout the Muslim worldD:for 16 or 17 years
