　　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．

Answer 1

答案：1．B;2．C;3．B;4．A;5．A;

解析：

(1)	由第一句“Dan happened to be away”判断Dan去了别的地方。
(2)	由第二段第二句看出，他想把小船拴到浮标上，是认为有可能被大船撞翻。
(3)	根据第二段后半部分可知，Mark在浮标上，而John随船漂流而去，结合第一段第二句话判断，是因为John不知道如何航海才导致这种结果。
(4)	根据文章结尾可知，船长接到另一艘船的船长发来的信息，然后来救Mark。根据当时的情景判断，另一艘船的船长只能从John那里得知信息。
(5)	根据文章判断，此处he指得到信息救Mark的船长。
