Gap Year Sailing Programs

A gap year spent sailing will show you more of the world than most people see in their whole lives. So hoist the anchor，throw off the bowlines，catch the following wind, and set sail on a voyage of discovery to create memories that will last a lifetime.

Where to Go

The beauty of a sailing gap year is that you don't just visit a single place. These unique adventures can take you across oceans and whole regions to experience dozens of countries in a single gap year. Some programs combine several regions including the Indian Ocean, the Caribbean Sea, etc. while others stick to just one.

Costs

How much a sailing gap year costs varies greatly depending on the type of program and the length of the voyage. A program lasting a few weeks may cost S$ 5,000 or more. Months long adventures may be as much as $20.000, especially if they involve college credit or other coursework.

Visa

Visa requirements will vary depending on where your voyage takes you. Your program will inform you of which visas you'll need. Make sure you obtain your visas well in advance.

Housing

Housing will consist of a berth (铺位) aboard your boat. Don't expect anything fancy. You'll likely have little more than a bed and a small storage locker in a two-or three-person cabin. Given the limited size of your living space, expect to stay close to your crewmates at all times with little real privacy.

Health & Safety

Living aboard a ship means that you can't always count on having medical facilities (设施) nearby. You may be asked to provide a note from your doctor confirming that you are in good health before being accepted into your program. Most programs include medical emergency insurance as part of their fees. See what it covers and what it doesn't when making your decisions.

21. What do the sailing programs provide for participants?

A. Journeys by land.

B. Chances to study abroad.

C. Courses of famous universities.

D. Opportunities to travel around the world.

22. What do you have to do before entering for the programs?

A. Ask parents for advice.    B. Save as much as $ 20,000.

C. Obtain your proper visa.    D. Have a medical examination.

23. Which word can best describe the living conditions in the programs?

A. Tough.   B. Fancy.   C. Noisy.   D. Comfortable.

B

There was a boy named Drake. He was just 12 years old. His parents had no money to educate him. They had no choice other than to tell their children to leave school and start helping them with their shop's work.

Drake assimilated this and started waking up before sunrise and going to their shop and cleaning it. He was really a hardworking guy.

When he turned 20, he got a job offer from an electrical company.

He started working in that company, and every day after coming from his job, he would learn more and more about bulbs(灯泡)because he saw a lot of bulb production there. After some years he made a new improved bulb of his own. He was really excited to show it to his boss，but when the boss saw it, he wasn't interested in it and said it was of little use. But still, he believed in himself and didn't give up.

After a few months，he thought of setting up his own factory where he and his wife would put the improved bulb into production. When they made the bulbs, they started selling them. No one was interested in those bulbs, but still, he kept believing in himself.

One day when the sun was rising, he got an order of l,000 pieces of the bulbs. This totally changed his life. After that，he started getting more and more orders.

Written and illustrated by Shel Silverstein, The Giving Tree is a children's book that tells the story about a young boy and a tree in the forest. The story starts with the boy and the tree being the best of friends and having fun. As the boy grows older, he asks more from the tree. which willingly agrees until all that is left is a stump(树桩).In the end, the boy. now an old man, comes back to the tree and tells it that all he wants is a place to sit on. something that the tree eagerly provides.

In the book, each part of-the story goes straight to the point without confusing readers. The book doesn't include the events that happen to the boy in between. We see how the boy's needs increase to a point that the tree finally gives its trunk as he grows. It makes the book easy to read and understand. The writing style may seem plain and boring at first but we need to keep in mind that it is a children's book. If it weren’t that way. then it would be unattractive to its young readers.

The words used are very easy to understand. The phrase, “and the tree was happy" is quite moved and shows the tree's love for the boy. The use of the word “need" also shows readers the attitude of the boy. The change from “need” to “want" in the end also tells readers the changes that the boy goes through.

Though the book has been criticized as it can be understood in different ways.it is because of this that the book succeeds. Again the book is written for children. Different children have their own ways to understand the book and will consider it interesting.

28. What is the book mainly about?

A. A boy's great love for a tree.

B. A boy's dependence on a forest.

C. A boy's relationship with a tree.

D. A boy's interesting life in a forest.

29. Why is the book suitable for young readers in the author's opinion?

A. Its story is touching.    B. Its expressions are simple.

C. Its writing style is humorous.  D. Its topics are varied.

30. What makes The Giving Tree popular?

A. The comments kids gave.   B. The writing style.

C. The pictures in it.    D. The truth it mirrors.

31. What is the author's purpose in writing the text?

A. To comment on a book.   B. To introduce a writer.

C. To recommend a story.   D. To give readers a lesson.

D

Aside from a nursing degree, work experience and a desire to be a travel nurse, there are several must have "soft” skills that you need to be suitable for the job.

Adaptability is one of the most important skills needed to be a travel nurse.  36  Moving from place to place every few months and jumping into a new hospital while growing personally and professionally requires adaptability.

Being able to change in response to a situation is a key skill in being a good travel nurse. To be flexible, you need to be capable of quickly changing the way you work to best fit your boss’ needs.   37

Relationships play a big part in the success of your lives.   39   Developing relationships takes emotional intelligence. To develop relationships, you must be able to understand and negotiate with other people.

  40   Some nurses consider taking a travel assignment only for money. However, they are unhappy with moving around constantly. You need to love exploring new cities and seeing new things.

A. Not everyone can get used to it.

B. You need to communicate in a clear. friendly way.

C. Besides, a love of traveling is vital to being a travel nurse.

D. Soft skills enable you to get along with others and form relationships.

E. If you can adapt to a new environment quickly, you have an advantage.

There's just a l-in-3.700,000 chance that a person will be killed by   56   shark, but the fear is still enough to have swimmers worrying about   57   (be) seen as prey(捕获物).Now. new research supports the long-standing theory.   58   explains that it's a case of "mistaken identity" when great whites go in for a bite.

A team of biologists   59  (compare)videos of seals swimming with those of humans swimming. They then edited the clips to simulate a great white's vision and found that from the ocean inhabitant's point   60   view, humans do indeed have a strong resemblance to seals.

“Usually, great white sharks   61  (regard) as 'mindless killers' and 'fond of human flesh' . However. this does not seem to be the case; we just look like   62  (they) food," Laura Ryan, lead author of the study, told Live Science.

“They eat seals every day and bites on people are   63   (extreme) rare," said Catherine MacDonald. a marine scientist at the University of Miami. “So if they're not solving the problem visually, then how do we think they're solving it?   64   (hit) the right targets. sharks could be relying on other senses，like the scent. If that's the case,   65   (addition) studies on how great whites use those senses could help prevent further attacks.”

After a week, he was still touching his ear continually. My mother took him to a different doctor. The doctor ran blood tests on him and thought he should be in the hospital as soon as possible. At first, the doctors did not know what was wrong with him. A couple of days later, they found out he had a type of bone marrow(骨髓)cancer.

The doctors tried one round of treatment. It helped, but my brother lost his hair. Then he needed a bone marrow transplant(移植).They needed to find a bone marrow donor(捐赠者)，so the doctors tested my family first.

l was so afraid to get a shot. My sisters and I were all crying. We got it over with quickly, and it did not hurt as much as I thought it would. A couple of weeks later, we found out that one of my sisters and I were both matches. My parents had to choose which one of us should be the donor. After thinking about it for a long time, they made their decision one Sunday.

That day, after having our lunch, my parents put me on the sofa. With tears filling their eyes, they told me that they wanted me to be the bone marrow donor because I was older. They asked me whether I’d like to be the donor. Hearing it, I was excited and nervous.
