19、uld do it, as he had lung cancer. But Chichester was determined to carry out his plan.”可知，奇切斯特得了肺癌，医生和朋友都认为他不适合环球航行，但他仍坚持独自环球航行，由此可知，他是一个勇敢且坚定的人，故B项正确。【2题详解】细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“Queen Elizabeth II knighted(授以爵位) him”可知，奇切斯特回到英国后，伊丽莎白女王二世她因表扬他而封他为爵士，故D项正确。【3题详解】推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Chichester covered 14100 miles
20、before stopping in Sydney, Australia. This was more than twice the distance anyone had previously sailed alone.”可知，奇切斯特航行了14100英里，最后于1966年12月12日停在了澳大利亚的悉尼，这是以往独自航行距离的两倍多，由此可知，1966年以前，独自航行的人只能航行不到7050英里，故A项正确。【点睛】推理判断题的难度在于根据文章已知信息进行合乎逻辑的推断，切不可凭借主观臆断。例如本篇第3题，根据第三段中的“Chichester covered 14100 miles bef
