Full name: .......................................................................

A long time ago the ship of Robinson Crusoe was wrecked in a tempest near an island. The sailors all died, and when he landed he found himself alone on an island that was unscripted at any map.

He had no food, and no weapon to defend himself against wild and dangerous animals. All he had was his pocket knife,his pipe and a little tobacco. When the night came, he climbed up a tree and quickly fell asleep.

The next days, he tried to make life possible for him. He built a small hut and made weapons to hunt animals to eat.He hunted animals and fed on them. He planted crops to feed himself. He made
tools in order to handle his needs. He fished using arrows he made from tree branches. He succeeded to recuperate books, knives and many other useful items from sinking boats. He made everything himself. He was his own tailor,shoemaker, baker, joiner and so on. He spent more than 20 years in total solitude and one day a passing ship of pirates had mercy on him and took him back to his home.

Site Reviewer

That's a very interesting text and evaluation paper in general. Just a little addition. How about "Friday" (Crusoe's companion) ?
