200. The shipwreck 1海难 shelter-sideways
There was a sailor who suffered a shipwreck off the shore of a small group of islands. He had been sailing along, having a slight case of sea sickness, when a gust 2 of wind shifted the direction of the boat and shoved it into some rocks. The shock threw him sideways off the boat. There was a shipment of cargo 3 being carried in wooden boxes. One of these boxes fell into the water. He grabbed onto it to keep afloat and swam ashore 4.
When he got to the shore, his skin was shrunken and shriveled, but he wasn’t worried about the shrinkage because he would dry out quickly. As the sun was shining brightly, he headed directly for the shrubs 6 on the beach. He used them to shield himself from the burning sun. He lay in the bushes for a while to get over the shocking experience of the shipwreck.
When he awoke, he decided 7 that he should find some food and shelter for the night. He had nothing to rely on except his shrewd ability. So he headed over a rise where he saw something shiny in the distance. He could see a house with shuttered windows. He searched and finally found a shortcut 9 through some thick shrubs. As he approached the house, he saw that there was a shepherd watching over his sheep. As the shepherd turned around, the man saw that he was holding a shotgun. As he raised the gun, the sailor instantly sidestepped, and the shot missed him. The sailor quickly explained his situation, and the shepherd invited him into his house saying, “Sorry about the shot. I’m a little shy around strangers. How about some cards? I’ll shuffle 10 the deck.” The sailor thought to himself, “I don’t need a shepherd. I need a shipwright 11.”
