Extensive Reading Suggested Answer Key After swimming for hours, I started to lose hope. Our boat had sunk and all I remembered was diving into the cold sea. I felt like giving up when suddenly I thought I saw trees in the distance. I looked again and saw I was right! I started swimming as hard as I could. Half an hour later I felt the sand on my face. I lay there and I think I slept for hours. When I woke up, it was midday. I got up and looked around me. There was no one around. Just trees and wild flowers, the sea and the beach. I was hungry so I ate some berries from a strange-looking tree. They were very bitter, but I was so hungry that I ate lots and lots. Suddenly, my tummy started hurting. Soon I was in such pain that I fainted.
