问题    One Sunday, Mark decided to go sailing in his boat with his friend Dan, but Dan happened to be away. Dan’s brother John offered to go instead though he did not know anything about sailing. Mark agreed and they set out to sea.
   Soon they found themselves in a thick fog. Mark was sure they would be hit by a big ship. Fortunately he saw a large buoy (浮标) through the fog and decided to tie the boat to it for safety. As he was getting onto the buoy, however, he dropped the wet rope. The boat moved away in the fog carrying John, who did not know how to use the radio, He drifted (漂流) about and was not seen until twelve hours later.
   Mark spent the night on the buoy. In the early morning he fell asleep. He was having a bad dream when a shout woke him up. A ship, the Good Hope, came up and he climbed onto it and thanked the captain. The captain told him that John had been picked up by another ship and the ship’s captain had sent out a message. "Without the message I would not have found you on the buoy." he said.
Mark tried to tie the boat to the buoy so that ______.
选项 A、he could spend the night on it while John was looking for help
B、he and John could go sailing again when the fog cleared
C、it wouldn’t he hit by other ships
D、he might be picked up by a passing ship
答案C
解析 第二段中讲到，Mark和John在海上遇到了大雾，Mark担心大轮船会撞到他们，这时他发现了一个浮标，“and decided to tie the boat to it for safety.”这样，船就不会撞到他们了。所以本题的正确答案是C。
