It can be dangerous to travel by sea. Ships sometimes1 far away from land. When this happens, the sailors(海员) have to get into small boats. If another ship does not come and help them and they do not have enough food or water, they will 2.
Most people believe we must not drink sea water. They believe that if we3,we shall be very ill 4 all the salt in the water. A doctor called Alain Bombard did not believe this. He thought that people could stay alive by5sea water and eating small fish, animals and plants from the sea. On 19 October 1953, he set out in a small boat to6 the Atlantic Ocean(大西洋). He did not take any food or water with him.
Every day Dr. Bombard drank just a little sea water. He also caught fish and they had water7 them. He drank this water. He could not cook the fish, so he ate them as they were. He took small plants from the sea, 8 gave him more food. Dr. Bombard became 9, tired and quite ill, but after 65 days at sea he was still alive. He traveled 2,750 miles from one side of the Atlantic Ocean to the other, and on 24th,December 1953, he reached Barbados.
He lost 20 kilos,but he showed that people could live 10 sea water, the animals and plants in the sea.

Technology is an important part of life. With it we can do many things easily and quickly. It can help us in many ways. Man used to cut down trees with hand saw(锯). But now we can cut them down in a few minutes by using electric saw. In the past, if we had something important to tell our friends, we had to go to his or her house to tell them. Nowadays (现今，时下), we can give him or her a telephone call using the telephone or mobile phone. It is more convenient (方便的) and quickly. Many years ago people had to get the information they wanted by looking through a lot of books. In this way, they could become tried easily and they usually wasted too much time. Today, we can use the computer to help us . If we search the Internet, we can get all the things we want. Everything will become a piece of cake.
I believe that with the development of technology, our life will become better and better.
Tony Wheeler was born to travel. His father worked for an airline. For the first 16 years of his life，Wheeler and his family lived in many different countries.
In the early 1970s，Wheeler met a young woman named Maureen. They soon married. Before getting jobs， Tony and Maureen wanted to travel. They took a year-long trip from London，through Asia，to Australia. On the trip，they visited places like India， Iran， and Afghanistan.
When Tony and Maureen arrived in Australia，people asked many questions about their trip. To answer these questions，Wheeler wrote a guidebook called Across Asia on the Cheap . The book told people about different countries' weather，customs(风俗），and places to see. But unlike travel guides in the 1970s，Wheeler's book also talked about places most tourists did not go. He also wrote about unusual things to see and do. The book was very popular．
Wheeler and Maureen started a company called Lonely Planet. They continued travelling. They wrote guidebooks for each place they visited. Today，400 people work for Lonely Planet. The company has over 650 guidebooks. Wheeler still writes about travel “hot spots” (for example，Cambodia in Asia and Croatia in Europe). For more information，read the books!
