文章大意：本文是一篇记叙文。文章介绍了葡萄牙航海家麦哲伦环球航行的历史。麦哲伦的环球航行为欧洲航海史做出了巨大贡献，他的环球航行还证明了中世纪关于地球的理论是错误的。

9 . In search of fame and fortune,the Portuguese explorer Ferdinand Magellan (1480—1521) set out from Spain in 1519 with a fleet of five ships to discover a western sea route to the Spice Islands. In route he discovered what is now known as the Strait of Magellan and became the first European to cross the Pacific Ocean. The voyage was long and dangerous,and only one ship returned home three years later. Although it was loaded with valuable spices(香料)from the East,only 18 of the fleet’s original crew of 270 returned with the ship. Magellan himself was killed in battle on the voyage, but his ambitious expedition proved that the globe could be circled by sea.

Magellan’s daring and ambitious voyage around the world provided the Europeans with far more than just spices. Although the trip westward from Europe to the east via the Strait of Magellan had been discovered and mapped, the journey was too long and dangerous to become a practical route to the Spice Islands. Nevertheless, European geographic knowledge was expanded immeasurably by Magellan’s expedition. He found not only a massive ocean,but he also discovered that the earth was much larger than previously thought. Finally, although it was no longer believed that the earth was flat at this stage in history, Magellan’s circumnavigation(环球航行)of the globe proved that the medieval theory about the globe was incorrect.

1. Why did Magellan set out on an unknown and dangerous exploration?

A．To test the medieval theory.

B．To find a new strait in route.

C．To obtain the fame and fortune.

D．To see how big the earth was.

B．It was flat.
