五、阅读下面短文,用英语回答短文后的问题。〔人与社会——名著阅读〕
We began our hunt for the treasure. I was tied with rope and held by Silver. The other pirates (海盗) carried picks and shovels.
Suddenly, one man shouted. We ran towards him and saw a skeleton (骨架) lying near a pine tree. With a compass (罗盘), we knew it pointed in the direction of Skeleton Island, where the treasure was. It reminded the pirates of the Captain Flint's story and they started discussing his death.
When we rested, we heard a voice singing from the trees, similar to Flint's. The pirates were all frightened. "Someone is playing a trick on us," said Silver. The men started to feel better. However, the voice called out again, which made pirates look around in fear. Silver said, "I was never afraid of Flint when he was alive, and neither I am now. I won't turn back." With this, the men's spirits returned. They picked up things and we continued walking. Along the way, I was worried about Silver. I believed he could kill everyone to keep the treasure for himself.
One pirate shouted and the others started running but stopped at a great big hole. All the signs clearly showed treasure was not there. A fight was about to happen, but Silver acted faster. When Silver and I were prepared for the attack, the doctor, Gray and Ben Gunn came out and joined us.
As we walked to boats, the doctor told the story. "Two months ago, Ben found treasure and carried it to a cave. When we arrived, I met Gunn," continued the doctor. "Then when I couldn't see the ship, I visited Silver and gave him the useless map. I thought Jim was sure to be taken to the empty treasure pit (坑). So I left the squire and the captain guarding the cave, and arrived at the pit in time. Gunn went before me, as he could move faster and worked on the pirates' fears by singing and calling out, with great success."
— Adapted from *Treasure Island*
