Question

Three Taiwanese fishermen were saved yesterday from a small island in the South Pacific. The men had disappeared for more than three month.

They had left Taiwan in a small fishing boat and had planned a week-long trip. On their fifth day, however, they met a typhoon, and it badly broke the boats.

Luckily, none of the men was hurt. After the typhoon had passed, they discovered that the engine（发动机） wouldn’t start, so their boat just drifted（漂流） at sea for over a month. During this time, the fishmen caught fish to eat and drank rain water to stay alive.

Finally, the boat drifted toward a small island. When it got close enough, the men jumped out and swam to the island. On the island, they found fresh fruit and vegetables, and they continued to catch fish to eat .

The fishmen had lived on the island for two months when a passing ship saved them. Although the three men had lost a lot of weight, they were still in good health. Their families were surprised and happy when they returned.
