Stowe and his girlfriend Ahmad started a
voyage
on a 20-metre ship on Saturday afternoon. They want the voyage to take them three times around the earth and last 1,000 days without a stop.
Stowe has already had many different sailing(航行)voyages in all kinds of weather, but his 23-year-old girlfriend has never sailed outside the Hudson River.
"This will be my first time sailing ever—except for up and down the Hudson River," said Ahmad.
If they make it, their time away from land will beat the 657 days spent at sea by Jon Sanders from Australia. Jon Sanders went around the earth three times from 1986 to 1988.
Stowe plans to sail into the north Atlantic(大西洋)before heading south of the Equator(赤道). After passing the Equator and before passing Cape Horn, he plans to sail around the south Atlantic. "This is a voyage that takes heart," he said.
Every corner of the ship is filled with food. They also have a small library of books on different subjects, such as works of Joseph Conrad and every book written by Herman Melville.
Jon Sanders is mentioned because______.
选项
A、he was not as famous as Stowe
B、he sailed around the earth before
C、he once sailed around the earth with Stowe
答案
B
解析
句意:文中提到Jon Sanders的原因是什么?细节题。从文章“Jon Sanders,went around the earth three times from 1986 to1988一强·桑德斯于1986至1988年间进行了三次环球航行。”得知他有过环球航行的经历,故B项符合题意。
