阅读理解     One day, I happened to talk to a stranger on the bus. When he found out that I was from Chicago,
he told me that one of his good friends lived there and he wondered if I happened to know him. At first
I wanted to say that it was foolish (愚蠢的) to think like that, for out of all the millions of people in
Chicago, I could not possibly know his friend. But, instead, I just smiled and said that Chicago was a
very big city. He was quiet for a few minutes, and then he began to tell me all about his friend.
     He told me that his friend was an excellent tennis player and that he even had his own tennis court.
He added that he knew a lot of people with swimming pools, but that he only knew two people in the
country who had their own tennis courts. And his friend in Chicago was one of them. I told him that I
knew several people like that, for example, my brother and my next-door neighbour. I told him that my
brother was a doctor and he lived in California. Then he asked where my brother lived in California.
When I said Sacramento, he said that last year his friend spent the summer in Sacramento and lived
next door to a doctor. The doctor had a tennis court. I said that my next-door went to Sacramento last
summer and lived in the house next to my brother"s. For a moment, we looked at each other, but we
did not say anything.
     "Would your friend"s name happen to be Roland Kirkwood?" I asked finally. He laughed and said,
"Would your brother"s name happen to be Dr. Ray Hunter?" It was my turn to laugh.

     One Sunday, Cody decided to go sailing in his boat with his friend Dane, but Dane happened to be
away. Dane"s brother Brett wanted to go instead though he did not know anything about sailing. Cody
agreed and they set out to sea.
     Soon they found themselves in a thick fog. Cody was sure they would be hit by a big ship.
Fortunately (幸运地) he saw a large buoy (浮标) through the fog and decided to tie the boat to it for
safety. As he was getting onto the buoy, however, he dropped the wet rope. The boat moved away in
the fog carrying Brett who did not know how to use the radio. He drifted (漂流) about and was not seen
until twelve hours later.
     Cody spent the night on the buoy. In the early morning he fell asleep and was having a dream when a
shout woke him up. A ship, the Good Hope, came up and he climbed onto it and thanked the captain.
The captain told him that Brett had been picked up by another ship and the ship"s captain had sent out a
message.
