Gullivers Travels
My father had a small house in Nottinghamshire. I was the third of five sons. When I was seventeen years old, I was sent to Mr. James Bates, a well-known doctor in London, with whom I worked and studied for four years.
When I left Mr. Bates, I began to work as a ship doctor on the Swallow.
(6)______ After that I decided to stay in London. I bought a part of a small house and married Miss Mary Burton. But life in London was not easy. (7)______. I spoke to my wife and some of my friends, and decided to become a ship doctor again.
I agreed to go with Captain William Prichard, who was making a voyage to the South Seas on board the Antelope. We started from Bristol on the 4th of May, 1699. (8)_____. But when we were sailing across the Indian Ocean, a terrible storm began which carried our ship to the east for many days. Twelve of our sailors died of hard work and bad food, the others were ill. On the 5th of November which was the beginning of summer in those parts, our ship struck a rock. (9)______ I cannot tell what became of my companions, and of those sailors who remained on the ship and on the rock, but I think that they were all drowned. I swam where the wind and the waves carried me.
