How about windsurfing into the heart of Africa! Whereas people had windsurfed up the Nile and the Amazon,
风帆冲浪到非洲的 心脏地带去!尽管有风帆冲浪者到过 尼罗河和亚马逊河,
No one had gone down the winding rivers of inner Africa. He whistled to himself it would be a weary experience, but he would do it.
但还没有人沿着非洲 内陆那些蜿蜒的 河流走过.他朝自个儿吹了声口哨 这样做肯定会很疲劳, 但他一定要做.
A good wholesome kid, Scotty Mays was a famous extreme sports star. He attracted a whopping level of attention in whatever he did.

As they began, Scotty weaved and whirled across the water whenever there was a good breeze.
开始的时候, 一遇到有合适的微风, 斯科蒂便会在水上迂回 前进并且做旋转动作.
When the wind was only a whisper they traveled by boat. Back on the water,
当风只是飒飒地吹时, 他们就乘船旅行.回到水上,
Scotty was surprised at a huge gust of wind That turned out to be from the whirring of several helicopters.
斯科蒂惊奇地发现 有一股强风, 原来那是几架直升 飞机的呼呼声造成的.
He tried to cross the width of the river back to the boat, But the helicopters whirled around, wedged him in place and took him.
他试着跨过河的 宽度回到船上, 但那些直升飞机围着 他旋转, 把他挤在一个 地方并且抓住了他.

Whilst this was occurring, Scottie was beaten and tortured. When his kidnappers realized the mess they were in,
与此同时, 斯科蒂 遭到毒打和折磨.当绑架他的人意识到 自己惹了麻烦,
They whereby released Scottie only a short way from a town. It was a weird, surreal experience, but Scottie was even more famous.

There was no need to finish the windsurfing trip. The zeal of the witnesses grew and it was a glorious evening!
