Read the passage, then do as required

Most of us have formed an unrealistic picture of life on a desert island. We sometimes

imagine a desert island to be a sort of paradise where the sun always shines. Life there is

simple and good. Ripe fruit falls from the trees and you never have to work. The other side

of the picture is quite the opposite. Life on a desert island is wretched. You either starve to

death or live like 'Robinson Crusoe', waiting for a boat which never comes. Perhaps there is

an element of truth in both these pictures, but few of us have had the opportunity to find

out.

Two men who recently spent five days on a coral island wished they had stayed there

longer. They were taking a badly damaged boat from the Virgin Island to Miami to have it

repaired. During the journey, their boat began to sink. They quickly located a small rubber

dinghy with food, matches, water and rowed for a few miles across the Caribbean until they

arrived at a tiny coral island. There were hardly any trees on the island and there was no

water, but this did not prove to be a problem. The men collected rain- water in the rubber

dinghy. As they had brought a spear gun with them, they had plenty to eat.

They caught lobsters and fish every day, and , as one of them put it ' ate like kings' ! When a

passing tanker rescued them five days later, both men were genuinely sorry that they had

to leave.

Answer

The Ultimate Experience

They were on their way, their boat died, they grabbed the dinghy and reached a deserted island.

They made sure to protect themselves, feed themselves, and find water.

Knife, Fire -(stuff to make fire), Rope  - many uses for rope

I would add the info about the animals on the island and what it was like to look up at the night sky so dark and beautiful full of stars

Two men were recently rescued from a deserted island.  They were found safe.  They enjoyed the experience so much that they did not want to leave.  They were rescued.

Ending - I can see the Swiss Family Robinson story taking place and these 2 guys building them a house and staying on the island.

Question: Would you like to end up on a deserted island?

The deadly disease has been dramatically shortening life expectancy.

A graph shows years labeled 1958 to 2003 on the x-axis and life expectancy labeled 30 to 65 on the y-axis. There is a line for each country. All lines show an upward trend from 1958 to the 1980's and a downward trend from the 1980's to 2003.

Given the change in life expectancy, what can the reader conclude about HIV/AIDS in Africa?

It has spread over time.
It has lessened over time.
It has been wiped out over time.
It has stayed the same over time.
