However, his summer course included ancient history, which Papa felt our schools neglected, and navigation, in which we first had a formal examination in the dinning room, part of which consisted of trying several knots(绳结) in a given time limit, then we were each separately sent on what was grandly referred to as a cruise(巡航) in my father's 18-foot-knack about spending the night on board, and loaded down, according to my mother, which have enough food for a week. I remember that on my cruise I was required to formally plot(绘图) out course, using the tide table, even though our goal was an island I could see quite clearly across the water in the distance.
