it was as far away as it had been when he had first sighted it. Then it broke top of the water. Jonsai gasped (喘气).
It was a turtle.
Jonsai rubbed (揉) his eyes, thinking that the sun had weakened then. It was not unusual to find turtles feeding near the edge of the reef (暗礁).
But this was not an ordinary turtle. Nor was it a mirage (海市蜃楼). It stayed there on the surface, as white as foam or bone or sun－dried coral, and shining like an oyster (牡蛎) shell.
The creature stayed still for some time. So did the boy. Leaning forward, he stared without moving, disbelief giving way to a small fear. His heart flopped against his ribs like a dying fish.
There was no such thing as a white turtle!
His mind moved first. Tonight the men would return from the pit hunt. Samu and Aesake would be at the feast (盛筵) with the men. He, Jonsai, would have to sit with the women and children. But what would happen if, at the height of the feasting, Jonsai brought forward a gift for Chief Vueti, something he had never seen before, a present that would make him the envy of every chief on the islands?

5. In the last paragraph, Jonsai feels _______. A. determined but sad B. unsure but excited C. jealous and unsure D. worried and upset.

I don’t think there is anything wrong with your blood. The key to your problem is that long nap (打盹；小睡) after dinner. If you didn’t sleep for hours during the early part of the evening, you would be more ready to sleep at bedtime. If you didn’t nap after dinner, you would not want to stay up so late, and you would not feel the need to take a sleeping pill. The pill is still working in your system when you get up in the morning. This helps account for the fact that you feel tired all day.
