15岁英伦少年驾船25天征服大西洋
2003年当地时间1月12日，安提瓜岛的尼尔森码头人头攒动、摄影机林立。在人们的欢呼声中，浩瀚的大西洋迎来了最年轻的征服者——来自英国威特岛卡尔斯镇的15岁男孩塞巴斯蒂安·克洛弗，他是迄今为止独自驾船横跨大西洋的年龄最小的勇敢者，总航程为4344公里，历时25天。
目标征服全世界
塞巴在上岸后接受记者采访时说：“对于我来说，能顺利到达真是令人惊喜的事，将来我也许还会独自驾船航行征服世界。”豪言壮语之中，小塞巴离他的梦想——参加英国皇家海军又迈进了一步。
安提瓜和巴布达的旅游总长尼伯也对塞巴斯蒂安表达了当地人民的关怀与敬意。他说：“塞巴一定累坏了，我们为他准备了1磅（近1斤）水果，还有果仁巧克力。”由于塞巴的勇气和毅力，塞巴全家还得到了安提瓜和巴布达总理伯德的签名照片以及免费到加勒比海海滩度假的奖励。
25天征服大西洋
塞巴的成功带给别人的是惊叹及鼓舞，而此中的艰辛只有他自己知道。25天前在西班牙的加那利群岛，小英雄塞巴在当地人们的喝彩声中驾着自己近10米长的“倒影”号快艇，勇敢地驶入了大西洋。
众所周知，独自航海的孤独感是恐怖的，然而塞巴却说，他对航行的满腔热情可以克服大多数时候的寂寞。圣诞前的最后一个周末，塞巴独自漂流在漫无边际的大西洋上，当他通过卫星电话与好友聊天得知，学校正在筹备一台盛大的圣诞晚会后，内心的孤独感差点将他击倒。他的母亲事后说：“我知道那天他很难过。”
虽然塞巴远离了家人与朋友，可偶尔在海上还能邂逅“新朋友”：一群在他的快艇周围游来游去的杀人鲸。塞巴说：“刚开始我还害怕它们会把我的船撞一个洞，后来我明白了如果在20分钟内我们能相安无事，一般就没有什么危险了。”有一只鲸鱼在和塞巴两相对视后，产生了“好感”，总是乖乖地跟在船边，塞巴叫它“威利”。尽管如此，塞巴还是不能掉以轻心，他把自己的卫星电话放入应急包，以备鲸鱼颠覆快艇时请求救援，可这样一来，只能眼巴巴地看着电话的电池耗尽而无法及时充电。塞巴的父亲回忆此事时还心有余悸：“好几个小时我都无法和他通话，当我再次听到他的声音时我才松了一口气。”
除此之外，“倒影”号的突发故障也给塞巴的航行带来一场虚惊。一次，用来定位桅杆的桅索在大风中被吹断，给航行造成了极大的危险。好在塞巴沉着冷静，运用自己平日里和父亲学的船只检修知识，迅速排除了故障，才化险为夷。塞巴后来说：“那时我心无杂念，一心只想修好船，继续航行。那种感觉真好。”
海上变幻莫测的天气对于塞巴的航行也是一个不小的挑战。他回忆说：“一天，大概是凌晨2点，我走到甲板上，海上风雨大作，海浪汹涌。我突然想起了我的朋友们，他们和大多数人一样，正在舒适温暖的床上睡得香呢，而我呢，孤零零漂在海上。”
克服了各种困难的塞巴终于胜利在望，驾着“倒影”号驶进尼尔森码头。此时，他的母亲克洛弗夫人激动不已：“我钦佩我的儿子，为他的毅力、他的恒心、他的成熟。”克洛弗先生更是亲自驾着自己的“西西阿”号迎接儿子的归来。而在终于看到自己思念已久的父母时，塞巴却显得格外冷静。看来经历了风雨洗礼的小英雄真的长大了。

Step 16 Homework
请谈一谈你的爱好，以及它给你带来的益处。
My Hobby
A hobby can be almost anything a person likes to do in his spare time. Hobbyists raise pets, build model ships, weave baskets, or carve soap figures and so on. In a word, hobbies offer enjoyment, friendship, knowledge and relaxation.
Then, what is my hobby? Well, what I like most is singing. I began to sing songs when I was very young. My uncle was studying in a college then, so he could sing lots of songs, and he taught me several songs. I showed great interests in the music then, for they were pleasing to ears and easy to sing. My uncle told me they were called pop songs.
When I grew up, my music teacher found that I had a good voice, so she sent me to the Children's Palace to study vocal music. From then on, I began my vocal music training. And then I knew there were several kinds of songs, like folk songs, pop songs and so on. What I had learned most was the songs for children. They were all simple ones but our teacher trained us very strictly. We practiced how to produce sound and how to make our expression more natural and more pleasing. Those simple training didn't reduce my interest in singing at all and I won awards one after another in several kinds of competition. Actually I began to make up a dream of becoming a famous singer in the future.
As time went by, I came to realize that my dream wouldn't come true for there were strict conditions of being a singer. But I still took singing as my hobby since I found in music the interests which were lost in the exams. When I put all my emotion into singing a song, it gave me very good and very pleasant feelings, and a good chance to relax. Besides, it was a good way to learn things that couldn't be easily found in life.
Now as I'm saying goodbye to my childhood my voice has changed into a deep male voice, and therefore I can sing a lot of songs written for adults. I am often deeply moved, by the melody or by what the song writers said. I can feel that these words come from the bottom of their hearts: "All my best memories come back clearly to me. Some can even make me cry, just like before. It's yesterday once more. ""Heal the world; make it a place, for you and for me and the entire human race". When I sing these songs, tears fill in my eyes.
I love singing, and the warmest and fragrant thing in life, I assume, is sitting in the sunshine, listening to the walkman and singing together with the singer.
So, this is my hobby, and I hope every one of us can enjoy his own hobby, enjoy the simple, good things of life.
