听力原文:Interviewer: In the studio this week we have Anna Stephens who returned last July after a non-stop voyage round the world alone. Anna, welcome to the programme. Tell me, how did you get interested in sailing?
Anna: Well, although I was a teacher of sports in a school for a while, it wasn't until I started working for a travel agency that I first went sailing. A colleague invited me and I loved it straightaway. After that I went on several sailing holidays with friends in the Mediterranean.
Interviewer: So, where did you get the idea to sail round the world alone?
Anna: Well, I read a book, 'High Adventure' was the title, which was about a woman sailing alone, and it really impressed me. I suddenly knew what I wanted to do with my life. So I gave up my job and talked a friend into lending me his boat. It was a bit old and rusty, but basically fine. I then spent the next few months mending the boat.
Interviewer: Did you take the boat out to sea to test it?
Anna: Well, that was the problem -- I had planned to spend three weeks seeing how the boat performed at sea, but after six days I had to return because it got damaged in bad weather. That was good really because if I'd had three weeks of good weather, I wouldn't have realised what problems I needed to sort out.
Interviewer: What did people say when you had to turn back?
Anna: Oh, some of them thought this proved I wasn't ready for the trip. I would have preferred to carry on with my preparations without telling anybody, but because I relied on money from a number of local companies, they all had to be kept informed of my progress.
Interviewer: Right. Once you finally set out and you were out there alone, did you never feel lonely?
Anna: Well, yes I did, but that wasn't my main problem. The trip was ruined for me by the boat making such slow progress that I got bored. I wanted to be doing something all the time. The only time I really felt busy was in the Southern Ocean, where there were enormous storms and I had plenty to think about all the time.
Interviewer: Were the storms really frightening?
Anna: No, they were the really exciting part. My main difficulty was when I got back home and people didn't believe I'd really done it.
Interviewer: Why did that happen?
Anna: Well, as soon as I returned, I got on the phone to the World Sailing Club to say that I had successfully completed the trip and what did I have to do to get my certificate. They told me to fill in all the forms, etc. Then, on television, people began to say that it was strange although I claimed to have sailed around the world, I had not been in touch with any ships along the way. That's what started it. After that the newspapers were saying I hadn't made the trip at alii
Interviewer: So how did you manage to convince people?
Anna: Well, I showed the sailing club my diaries, which I'd been very careful to keep up-to-date throughout the trip, and they checked them and gave me a certificate. I even got an apology from the newspapers in the end.
Interviewer: And what will your next challenge be?
Anna: I haven't got any firm plans as yet, but rm writing a book about the trip.
Interviewer: Well, thank you, Anna. We look forward to reading all about it ...
