一、INTRODUCTION选文简介:本文选自美国作家加里·保尔森(Gary Paulsen)的一部力作《荒野历险记》(Hatchet)。该书曾获11项美国图书大奖。这是一个“少年鲁宾逊”的传奇故事。13岁的布赖恩·罗伯逊只身前往加拿大油田探望父亲。由于乘坐的单引擎飞机不幸坠毁,布赖恩被孤身一人抛在加拿大的荒野之中。除了随身的衣物和妈妈送给他的一把手斧之外,他几乎一无所有。他恐惧过、绝望过,也曾心急如焚地等待救援人员的到来,但后来还是战胜了自己,鼓起了生活的勇气。布赖恩凭借丰富的知识,克服重重困难,在荒野上造房、生火、捕鱼、打猎。最终,当救援人员不期而至时,他已经顽强而乐观地在荒野中生活了54天。布赖恩在亲身实践中摸索出一条重要的生存法则:顾影自怜无济于事,惟有同命运抗争,才有生的希望。节选的这一段描述了布赖恩刚刚到荒野上时的心理过程。 First, INTRODUCTION selected article introduction: This article is selected from the United States writer Gary Paulsen (Gary Paulsen) a masterpiece “Hatchet” (Hatchet). The book has won 11 American Book Awards. This is a “Juvenile Robinson” legend. 13-year-old Brian Robertson went to the Canadian oilfield to visit his father. Due to the unfortunate crash of a single-engine airplane, Brian was left alone in the Canadian wilderness. In addition to his clothes and the axe his mother gave him, he had almost nothing. He was scared and desperate, and he had been anxiously waiting for the arrival of rescue workers. But he later defeated himself and raised the courage of life. With his rich knowledge, Brian overcomes many difficulties and creates houses, fires, fishing, and hunting in the wilderness. In the end, when rescuers arrived unexpectedly, he had lived stubbornly and optimistically for 54 days in the wilderness. Brian practiced an important rule of survival in his own practice: Gu Ying’s self-pity had no effect, but he had to fight with his destiny in order to have a living hope. This section of the excerpt describes the psychological process when Brian arrived in the wild.
