    With only fish and birds for company, Eric Erden has been rowing across the Pacific Ocean to Australia in his 23-foot-long boat since he left California on July 10, 2009.
    But crossing the Pacific is only part of his incredible journey. Eric has decided to go all the way around the world using only his own energy. He will row, bike, and walk without help from any motors at all. Oh, and his plan includes climbing the tallest peak on six of the continents along the way, to honour the memory of a fellow climber.
    He says he is doing this to show kids that they can achieve any goal, but he hopes to have some great adventures along the way.
    As a solo traveller, Eric has already faced disappointments and challenges. Because he has to row about ten hours a day, he brought along an MP3 player to listen to music and pass the time. Unfortunately, the nearly daily tropical rain for several months has forced him to keep his player packed away where it's safe and dry.
    Storms and huge wave wind regularly force him in the wrong direction and even threaten to overturn his boat. “Sometimes I really feel scared,” says a somewhat embarrassed Eric. “But that’s all part of the journey. I knew this wouldn’t be easy when I started. That's why I gave myself two years to finish.”
    Protein bars（蛋白棒） give him energy, and he boils water to heat freeze-dried meals on a one-burner stove. A solar-powered machine removes salt from ocean water so he can drink it, but only when the sun shines. When that fails he sometimes tries to collect rainwater in buckets.
    He’s not bothered by any of the hardships. Eric sees the world as a laboratory where there is much to learn. And when his trip around the world takes him across land, he enjoys meeting people - especially children. He has already visited several schools and shared his story.
    小题1:Why is Eric making this trip?
    A．To encourage children to reach for their goal.
    B．To learn more about the world around us.
    C．To have many great adventures in strange lands.
    D．To honour the memory of a fellow climber.
    小题2:What does Eric plan to do on each of the six continents he will visit?
    A．Visit schools to share his story.
    B．Study the culture of the local people.
    C．Climb the tallest mountain.
    D．Cycle from one end to the other.
    小题3:When does Eric expect to finish his journey?
    A．July 2009.B．June 2010.
    C．January 2011.D．July 2011.
    小题4:Which of the following words best describes Eric’s character?
    A．Determined.B．Intelligent.
    C．Fearless.D．Lonely.

等考点的理解。关于这些考点您可以点击下面的选项卡查看详细档案。
  • 人物传记类阅读
  • 故事类阅读
人物传记类阅读：
本类型选材主要是名人轶事。
人物传记的叙述线索也常常以时间为序。内容一般不是一个人的生活流水账，而是选取主人公一些重要的人生阶段或生活片段来展开叙述。
阅读时要把握主人公在此阶段发生的事对他本身或他人有什么重要的意义和影响。

故事类阅读：
文章一般描述的是某一件具体事情的发生发展或结局，有人物、时间、地点和事件。
命题往往从故事的情节、人物或事件的之间的关系、作者的态度及意图、故事前因和后果的推测等方面着手，考查学生对细节的辨认能力以及推理判断能力。
阅读这类材料时，同学们一定要根据主要情节掌握文章主旨大意，同时抓住每一个细节，设身处地根据文章内容揣摩作者的态度和意图，根据情节展开想象，即使是碰到深层理解题也可迎刃而解。


故事类阅读注意：
初中生接触到的阅读材料大都是故事类。
阅读故事类的材料，应该抓住人物线索、地点线索、时间线索和情节发展线索。

特别注意的是，以上线索往往是并存的。因为情节的发展总是涉及到人物的变化、时间的推移、场景的变换等。
而阅读材料后的阅读理解往往会围绕这些内容设计一些事实类的理解题。

凡事实类的理解题都可以从阅读材料的表层文字中找到答案。

在阅读故事类短文时，应理解文章的深层含义，也就是它的主题。在此需要注意的是，现在的阅读理解题在测试事实类的理解题的同时，往往有一道推理类理解测试题．
