Lesson 1 A Sea Story
Period 1

本课是一节阅读课，该语篇选自美国著名诗人、小说家、批评家埃德加·爱伦·坡 （1809—1849）的短篇小说 “A Descent into the Maelstrom” 《大漩涡历险记》。小说采取倒叙手法，回忆了三年前主人翁和两个兄弟又去了经常去探险的岛屿，捕捞到了比其他人更多的鱼，返回时在海上遇险的故事。主人翁的哥哥和弟弟在大漩涡中分别遇难，主人翁机智地把自己绑在一个桶上在海上漂流，最后侥幸被一艘船救起。虽然救主人翁的渔夫都是主人翁的老朋友，但是他们都认不出主人翁本人了，也不相信主人翁的历险故事，因为不到一天的时间，主人翁的头发就从黑变白了，主人翁的身体和灵魂已经支离破碎，看上去已经是一个很老的人了。
