選修九Unit2 Sailing the oceans海洋航行

We may well wonder how seamen explored the oceans before latitude and longitude made it possible to plot a ship's position on a map.我們很可能感到奇怪，在經緯度被用來在地圖上標出船只位置之前，海員是如何對海洋進行探索的。The voyages of travellers before the 17th century show that they were not at the mercy of the sea even though they did not have modern navigational aids.17世紀以前的航海紀錄顯示，即使沒有現代航海技術的幫助，他們也沒有任憑海洋擺布。So how did they navigate so well? Read these pages from an encyclopedia.那么，他們是怎樣航行得如此之好的呢？讀讀百科全書這幾頁上的記載吧。Page 1: 第一頁：

Using nature to help Keeping alongside the coastline借助大自然使船只沿海岸線行駛 This seems to have been the first and most useful form of exploration which carried the minimum amount of risk.這似乎已是最早的、最有用的探險方式，所冒的風險也最小。Using celestial bodies利用天體 ●North Star北極星

At the North Pole the North Star is at its highest position in the sky, but at the equator it is along the horizon.在北極，北極星是在天上的最高位置；而在赤道上，北極星卻在地平線上。So accomplished navigators were able to use it to plot their positions.因此，熟練的航海探險家就能夠利用北極星來確定他們自己的位置。●Sun太陽

On a clear day especially during the summer the sailors could use the sun overhead at midday to navigate by.They can use the height of the sun to work out their latitude.在晴朗的日子里，特別是夏天，船員可以利用正午在頭頂上的太陽來導航，他們可以用太陽的高度來計算出他們的緯度。●Clouds云層

Sea captains observed the clouds over islands.There is a special cloud formation which indicates there is land close by.海上的船長觀測島上的云層。有一種特殊的云彩的形狀表明附近有陸地。

Using wildlife利用野生動植物 ●Seaweed海藻

Sailors often saw seaweed in the sea and could tell by the colour and smell how long it had been them.海員常常看到海里的海藻，并能根據它的顏色和氣味判斷這種海藻在那兒有多久了。If it was fresh and smelled strongly, then the ship was close to land.如果它顏色新鮮而且氣味濃烈，那說明船只就離陸地很近了。●Birds鳥

Sea birds could be used to show the way to land when it was nowhere to be seen.在看不見陸地的時候，可以用海鳥來指明通往陸地的去路。In the evening nesting birds return to land and their nests.在夜晚的時候，筑巢而居的鳥就要返回陸地鳥窩。So seamen could follow the birds to land even if they were offshore and in the open sea.因此，即使在遠離海岸的大洋上，海員們也可以跟隨這些鳥到達陸地。Using the weather利用天氣 ●Fog霧

Fog gathers at sea as well as over streams or rivers.正如霧氣匯聚在溪流或江河上一樣，霧氣也能匯聚在海洋上。Seamen used it to help identify the position of a stream or river when they were close to land.當靠近陸地時，海員們可以用霧氣來幫助確定溪流或江河的位置。●Winds風 Wise seamen used the winds to direct their sailing.They could accelerate the speed, but they could also be dangerous聰明的海員常常利用風向來導航。風向可以使船只加快速度，也可以造成危險。.So the Vikings would observe the winds before and during their outward or return journeys.于是，北歐的海盜們在出海或返航時都要觀察風向。Using the sea利用大海

Certain tides and currents could be used by skillful sailors to carry ships to their destination.技術嫻熟的海員可以利用大海的某些潮汐或浪潮把船送往他們的目的地。These skills helped sailors explore the seas and discover new lands.這些技術幫助海員探測大海和發現新大陸。They increased their ability to navigate new seas when they used instruments.當他們使用這些手段的時候就增加了在新的海域導航的能力。Page 2: 第二頁

Using navigational instruments to help利用航海工具 Finding longitude找出經度

There was no secure method of measuring longitude until the 17th century when the British solved this theoretical problem.直到17世紀英國人解決了這個理論問題后,人們才有了測量經度的可靠方法。Nobody knew that the earth moved westwards 15 degrees every hour, but sailors did know an approximate method of calculating longitude using speed and time.以前沒有人知道地球每小時向東轉動約15度，然而海員們確實知道用速度和時間來計算經度的近似標準的方法。An early method of measuring speed involved throwing a knotted rope tied to a log over the side of the ship.早期測量速度的方法是沿著船邊拉一根打結的繩子，把這根繩子系在一根圓木上，然后把它拋入海里。The rope was tied to a log which was then thrown into the sea.As the ship advanced through the water the knots were counted as they passed through a seaman's hands.The number of knots that were counted during a fixed period of time gave the speed of the ship in nautical miles per hour.當船只在水中前進時，這些繩結從海員的手中通過,這時海員就記下繩結的數目。在一定時間內計算出有多少個結, 就可以算出船只每小時航行多少海里的速度。Later, when seamen began to use the compass in the 12th century they could calculate longitude using complicated mathematical tables.The compass has a special magnetic pointer which always indicates the North Pole, so it is used to help find the direction that the ship needs to go.In this way the ship could set a straight course even in the middle of the ocean.后來,當12世紀海員們開始使用指南針的時候,他們就可以用復雜的數學表來計算出經度了。指南針有一個特殊的磁針,始終指著北極。因此人們用它來幫助找出船只所要去的方向。這樣,即使在大海中船只也可以直線航行。

Finding latitude找出緯度 ●The Bearing Circle方位圓

It was the first instrument to measure the sun's position.A seaman would measure the sun's shadow and compare it with the height of the sun at midday.Then he could tell if he was sailing on his correct rather than a random course.這是最早用來測量太陽位置的工具。海員可以測量太陽的影子，并把它同太陽在正午時的高度作比較，這樣就可以知道自己是在正確的航道上或是在隨意行駛。●The Astrolabe星盤

The astrolabe, quadrant and sextant are all connected.星盤、象限儀和六分儀相互都有聯系。They are developments of one another.它們是在彼此的基礎上發展而成的。The earliest, the astrolabe, was a special all-in-one tool for telling the position of the ship in relation to the sun and various stars which covered the whole sky.最早的是星盤，它是一種特殊的集多功能于一體的工具，它可以用來表明船只同太陽和布滿天空的各種星星之間的相關位置。This gave the seamen the local time and allowed them to find their latitude at sea.這樣，海員們就可得知當地的時間，以及他們在海上的緯度。However, it was awkward to use as one of the points of reference was the moving ship itself.但是，它不容易使用，因為其參照點之一就是行駛中的船只本身。●The Quadrant象限儀

This was a more precise and simplified version of the astrolabe.這是一種比較精確而且比較簡單的星盤。It measured how high stars were above the horizon using a quarter circle rather than the full circle of the astrolabe.它利用星盤的1/4圓周而不是整個圓來測量星星在在水平線上的高度。It was easier to handle because it was more portable.它比較容易操作，因為它比較輕便。Its shortcoming was that it still used the moving ship as one of the fixed points of reference.缺點仍就是使用移動的船只作為一個固定的參照點。As the ship rose and plunged in the waves, it was extremely difficult to be accurate with any reading.因為船只在海浪中起伏不定，所以很難測出精確的讀數。●The sextant六分儀

The sextant was the updated version of the astrolabe and quadrant which reduced the tendency to make mistakes.六分儀是星盤和象限儀的改進版，它減少了出差錯的可能性。It proved to be the most accurate and reliable of these early navigational instruments.在這些早期的航海儀器中，它被證明是最精確和最為可靠的一種，It works by measuring the angle between two fixed objects outside the ship using two mirrors.它的工作方式是用兩塊鏡子來測量船外兩個固狀物體之間的角度，This made the calculations more precise and easier to do.這就使得計數更加精確，而且更加容易操作。

Zheng He:He led a large fleet to explore Southeast Asia, India and the Middle East in the Ming Dynasty.Altogether he made 7 voyages in the 15th century.He travelled more than 50,000 km and visited 30 countries new to China and developed many trade links.He is considered one of the earliest naval explorers in Chinese history.Marco Polo：He is the most famous westerner to travel the Silk Road and the only person to provide information about China to the outside world.In 1271 he set out to reach the Mongol Empire and then China.In 1295, he arrived back in Europe.Three years later he was imprisoned by the Genoese.While in prison, he told the story of his travels to a fellow prisoner who wrote his adventures down.When his book was published it became a best-seller.James Cook:James Cook was the greatest Britain navigator.Cook joined in the Royal Navy in 1755.In 1768 he was promoted and sent to the Pacific where he surveyed Tahiti, New Zealand, and Australia.On his famous second expedition(1772-1775)he explored Antarctica.In 1776 he undertook his third and final voyage in which he explored the West Coast of North America and tried to locate a passage between the Atlantic and Pacific oceans.On this voyage he discovered the Hawaiian Islands, and sailed up the coast of North America through the Bering Straits to the Arctic Ocean.On his return he was killed by Hawaiian islanders.He is regarded as one of the world’s greatest explores and navigators.
