TEXTAt sixty-five Francis Chichester set out to sail single-handed round the world. This is the story of that adventure.Sailing Round the WorldBefore he sailed round the world single-handed, Francis Chichester had already surprised his friends several times. He had tried to fly round the world but failed. That was in 1931.The years passed. He gave up flying and began sailing. He enjoyed it greatly. Chichester was already 58 years old when he won the first solo transatlantic sailing race. His old dream of going round the world came back, but this time he would sail. His friends and doctors did not think he could do it, as he had lung cancer. But Chichester was determined to carry out his plan. In August, 1963, at the age of nearly sixty-five, an age when many men retire, he began the greatest voyage of his life. Soon, he was away in this new 16-metre boat, Gipsy Moth.Chichester followed the route of the great nineteenth century clipper ships. But the clippers had had plenty of crew. Chicheater did it all by himself, even after the main steering device had been damaged by gales. Chichester covered 14, 100 miles before stopping in Sydney, Australia. This was more than twice the distance anyone had previously sailed alone.He arrived in Australia on 12 December, just 107 days out from England. He received a warm welcome from the Australians and from his family who had flown there to meet him. On shore, Chichester could not walk without help. Everybody said the same thing: he had done enough; he must not go any further. But he did not listen.After resting in Sydney for a few weeks, Chichester set off once more in spite of his friends' attempts to dissuade him. The second half of his voyage was by far the more dangerous part, during which he sailed round the treacherous Cape Horn.On 29 January he left Australia. The mext night, the blackest he had ever known, the sea became so rough that the boat almost turned over. Food, clothes, and broken glass were all mixed together. Fortunately, bed and went to sleep. When he woke up, the sea had become calm the nearest person he could contact by radio, unless there was a ship nearby, Wild be on an island 885 miles away.After succeeding in sailing round Cape Horn, Chichester sent the followiing radio message to London:" I feel as if I had wakened from a nightmare. Wild horses could not drag me down to Cape Horn and that sinister Southern Ocean again." Juat before 9 o'clock on Sunday evening 28 May, 1967, he aeeived back in England, where a quarter of a million people were waiting to welcome him. Queeh Elizabeth II knigthed him with the very sword that Queen Elizabeth I had sailed round the world for the first time. The whole voyage from England and back had covered 28, 500 miles. It had taken him nine months , of which the sailing time was 226 days. He had done what he wanted to accomplish.Like many other adventurers, Chichester had experienced fear and conquered it. In doing so, he had undoubtedly learnt something about himself. Moreover, in the modern age when human beings depend so much on machines, he had given men throughout the world new pride.NEW WORDSsingle-handeda & ad.

Have you ever dreamed of sailing round the world?(3). If you could sail to any place in the world, where would you want to go? Why?(4). If you decided to sail round the world, what would you need to take with you the boat?Almost everyone has dreamed of travelling round the world. However, sailing round the world all by oneself is very difficult and adventurous. Many people have traveled round the world, but no one else has done it the way Sir Francis Chichester did. Let’s see a living example that the text shows us.About Sir Francis Chichester (1901-1972):Born in Devon, Britain in 1901, Sir Francis Chichester was a British adventurer. In 1931, he planned to fly round the world, but the plane was damaged in Japan. In 1960, he won the first solo transatlantic race by sailing the “Gipsy Moth II”. During 1966-1967 he sailed round the world alone in a 53-foot yacht the “Gipsy Moth IV”. He published two books “The Lonely Sea and Sky” & “ The Gipsy Moth Circles the World”The text tells us briefly what happened on him on his voyage, one of the greatest seafaring exploits of all time. To begin with the text, let’s look at a map of Chichester’s course. (Show student s the map.)B. Divide the text.This article can be divided into three parts.Part I ( Lines 1-11)The Main Idea:Sir Francis Chichester was an ambitious man. He was determined to carry out his plan to sail round the world.Language Points(1)“Francis Chichester had already surprised his friends several times.”-Why?---He was not an ordinary individual & he had tried to do sth. special. E.g: He attempted to fly round the world. Although he had failed, the whole event showed that he was different from others. His courage, ambition & behavior surprised his friends.(2) Why was Chichester determined to carry out his plan?-a. His old dream of going round the world hadn’t been realized.-b. He won the first solo transatlantic sailing race.-c. He was not you ng 7 had lung cancer, which meant that he didn’t havemuch time or chance left.Part II (Lines 12-37)The Main Idea: The process of Francis Chichester’s travelling.a. From England to Sydney.b. From Sydney to EnglandLanguage Points:(1) clipper ship: used in the China tea trade in the nineteenth century. Thegreat age of the clipper was 1845-1860. Speed was demanded in the China tea trade & also for the fast delivery of cargoes to San Francisco and Melbourne during the California and Australian gold rushes. Clippers fell out of use as freight rates declined and steam ships provided competition.(2) crew: the captain, sailors, mechanics, cooks, etc.(3) steering device: a piece of equipment for particular direction(4) What was the difference between Chichester and the great nineteenth century sailors?The sailors of the nineteenth century used big clipper ships which had had lot of crew on them. Their success was the success of a group of people. Although Chichester followed their route, he had sailed alone. His success was the success of an individual.)(5) by far: usually used to modify a superlative or comparative degree adj. or adv.e.g : -She is by far better than Jim at spelling.-He is by far the best boy in the class(6) Why did everybody say that he had done enough when he arrived in Australia?The distance he covered was twice the previous record & he had already set a new record of sailing alone. Moreover, he was very tired and weak after 107 days of voyage.(7) “… the sea became so rough that the boat almost turned over.” so…that: to/ in such a degree that ( the adv. clause of result)e.g: -Was he so angry that he hit her?-She ran so fast that we couldn’t catch up with him.(8) dissuade sb from doing sth.:prevent sb. from doing sth. by giving reasonse.g:- They dissuaded her from leaving school.- The father finally dissuaded his son from giving up the job in the factory. (9) Cape Horn: a steep headland at the south of Horn Island, Chile. It is generally considered the southernmost point of South America. All the water between South America and the Antarctic Ocean is squeezed this narrow shallow gap. Sometimes the waves there may be as high as 50 feet.(10) “Wild horses could not drag me down to Cape horn and that sinister Southern Ocean again”:---“ Wild horses could not drag” is a common metaphor used mean that nothing, no matter how strong, could make you do something.e.g: Wild horses could not have dragged me away from the exciting film. (= Nothing could have made me leave.)Ask: - What was the picture when the sea became rough?-Why did he have such a horrible feeling about that night’s experience?Part III ( Lines 38- 49)1) The Main Idea: After Chichester arrived back in England, Queen Elizabeth and the people were waiting to welcome him. The author appraised his voyage.Ask: - What had Chichester learnt himself during the voyage?- What kind of new pride had he given to men through the world?Step III. Summary Questions & Concluding Remarks:Ask: - What do you think is Chichester’s greatest achievement?- Can you sketch a map to illustrate Chichester’s sailing course?The article des cribes Francis Chichester’s experience of sailing roun d the world, as well as his courage and determination in spite of many difficulties and attempts at dissuasion to prove human perseverance. People today can certainly learn a lot from him.C. Assignments:1. Recite the words.2.Read the text fluently.3. Preview all the exercises.References:The Lonely Sea and the Sky by Sir Francis Chichester, Summersdale Publishers; New Ed edition (January 31, 2002)"Gypsy Moth" Circles the World by Sir Francis Chichester, Hodder & Stoughton Ltd (June 1, 1972)。
