THE REWARD FOR PERSEVERANCE

On the ________ Island, optimism helped the ____________ of them who were left behind to persevere in overcoming _________ and _________ till Shackleton's _______ came.
Elephant
twenty-two
difficulties
surviving
rescue
Read the text again and answer the following questions.
1. What did the men eat and drink on the
island
2. What were the dangers of living on the
island
3. How did the men stay in good spirits while
waiting to be rescued
4. What do you think were the key reasons for
their survival
5. If you were one of the men on Elephant
Island, would you have trusted Shackleton
Why or why not
The men ate the meat of sea creatures and drank water from melted ice.
The dangers of living on the island were the changing temperatures, lack of food and water and the black smoke from burning animal fat.
The men stayed in good spirits by being disciplined and staying positive. They celebrated birthdays, festivals, and every time when they caught a sea animal.
I think the key reasons for their survival were their discipline and positive mental attitude, as well as the reliability of Shackleton.
I would have trusted Shackleton as he was a man
of honour and would do all he possibly could to
save us.
If it weren’t for sea animals, we would all starve. 要不是有海洋生物,我们都得挨饿。(P44)
