The Castaway | 荒岛求生者

English Original

A sailor was the only survivor of a shipwreck.

He remained stranded on a desert island for three years.

One day, he was overjoyed to spot a ship anchored offshore. When a small boat came ashore, an officer handed him a bundle of newspapers and said, "The captain suggests you read about what's going on in the world first, and then tell us if you still wish to be rescued."


中文翻译

他在一个荒岛上被困了三年。

一天,他欣喜地发现一艘船停泊在近海。当一艘小艇靠岸后,一名军官递给他一捆报纸,说道:“船长建议你先读读世界上发生的事情,然后再告诉我们你是否还想获救。”
