During all this time I never stopped thinking about escape. When I traveled across to the other side of the island (島嶼) ,I could see the other islands,and I said to myself, "Perhaps I can get there with a boat. Perhaps I can get back to England one day."
So I decided to make myself a boat. I cut down a big tree,and then began to make a long hole (洞) in it. It was hard work,but about six months later,I had a very fine canoe (獨木舟) .Next,I had to get it down to the sea. How silly I was!Why didn't I think before I began work? Of course,the canoe was too heavy. I couldn't move it!I pulled and pushed and tried everything,but it didn't move. I was very unhappy for a long time after that.
That happened in my fourth year on the island. In my sixth year I did make myself a smaller canoe,but I did not try to escape in it. The boat was too small for a long journey,and I did not want to die at sea. The island was my home now,not my prison,and I was just happy to be alive. A year or two later,I made myself a second canoe on the other side of the island. I also built myself a second house there,and so I had two homes.
My life was still busy from morning to night. There were always things to do or to make. I learnt to make new clothes for myself from the skins of dead animals. They looked very strange,it is true,but they kept me dry in the rain.
I kept food and tools (工具) at both my houses,and also wild goats (山羊) .There were many goats on the island,and I made fields with high fences to keep them in. They learnt to take food from me,and soon I had goats' milk to drink every day. I also worked hard in my corn (玉米) fields. And so many years went by.
