Nearly a quarter-century after a German boy tossed a message in a botde off a ship in the Baltic Sea,he’s received an answer.
A 13-year-old Russian, Daniil Korotkikh, was walking with his parents on a beach when he saw something glittering lying in the sand.
"I saw that bottle and it looked interesting,"Korotkikh told the Associated Press on Tuesday. "It looked like a German beer botde with a ceramic(陶瓷的)plug,and there was a message inside. "
His father, who knows a litde German, translated the letter. It said:" My name is Frank, and I am five years old. My dad and I are traveling on a ship to Denmark. If you find this letter, please write back to me,and I will write back to you. "
The letter,dated 1987,included an address in the town of Coesfeld.
The boy in the letter,Frank Uesbeck,is now 29. His parents still live at the letter’s address.
"At first I didn’t believe it,"Uesbeck told the AP about getting the response from Korotkikh. In fact,he barely remembered the trip at all;his father actually wrote the letter.
The Russian boy said he does not believe that the botde actually spent 24 years in the sea. "It would not have survived in the water all that time,"he said. He believed it had been hidden under that sand where he found it.
In the web chat earlier this month, Uesbeck gave Korotkikh his new address to write to and promised to write back when he receives his letter.
"He’ll definitely get another letter from me,"the 29-year-old said.
Uesbeck was especially thrilled that he was able to have a positive impact on a life of a young person far away from Germany.
Which of the following statements is NOT true?
选项
A、Daniil Korotkikh believed the botde must have stayed in the sea all the time before he got it.
B、Frank,the German man gave the Russian boy his new address.
C、Frank and Korotkikh have met each other through the web chat.
D、It is likely that Frank and Korotkikh will arrange a meeting in person.
答案
A
解析
根据第八段“The Russian boy said he does not believe that the bottle actually spent 24 years in the sea.‘It would not have survived in the water all that time,’he said.He beheved it had been hidden under that sand where he found it.”可知俄罗斯男孩不相信漂流瓶在海里呆了24年,认为瓶子不可能在水中存在这么久,他认为瓶子肯定是藏在沙滩下面。故A项错误。
