Ⅱ.[2019·盐城一模]阅读理解
I remembered I had a gun if I needed it, and turned back towards this man of the island. He was hiding behind another tree but stepped out to meet me.
“Who are you?” I asked, staring at him.
“Ben Gunn,”he answered, and his voice sounded rough and strange.His skin was burnt nearly black by the sun and his clothes were made from pieces of a ship's sail. “Poor Ben Gunn,” he went on. “Alone for three years.”
“Were you shipwrecked(船遇难)?” I asked.
“No,my friend,” he said. “Marooned.”
I had heard the word before, and knew it meant a cruel(残忍的) punishment often used by pirates(海盗)—leaving a man alone on some distant, empty island.
“Marooned for three years,” he continued, “living on wild goats and fish. But I'm in a great need for real English food back home. You don't have a piece of cheese, do you? Many nights I've dreamed of cheese.”
He continued. “Well, tell me your name.”
“Jim,” I told him.
“Well, Jim,” he said, looking around and lowering his voice to a whisper, “I'm rich.” I was now sure the poor man was crazy,but he repeated his words. “Rich, I say! Now,Jim,that isn't Flint's ship, is it?”
