nyway,Thanks spidey! hope u defeat Dr.Octopus(IGCSE) :D

extracts frm Bear Island by Alistair McLean: (the last one is the best)
"The Morning Rose(a ship), then, was far gone beyond the superannuation watershed; she was slow, creaking,
unstable, and coming apart at the seams. So were Captain Imrie and Mr. Stokes. The Morning Rose
consumed a great deal of fuel in relation to the foot-pounds of energy produced. So did Captain Imrie
and Mr. Stokes, malt whisky for Captain Imrie, Jamaican rum for Mr. Stokes. And that was what they
were doing now, stoking up on their respective fuels with the steadfast dedication of those who haven't
attained septuagenarian status through sheer happenstance."


"Three hundred miles north of the Arctic Circle, where we at the present moment had the debatable fortune to be, the weather conditions
can be as beautifully peaceful as any on earth, with mirror-smooth, milky-white seas stretching from
horizon to horizon under a canopy of either washed-out blue or stars that are less stars than little chips of
frozen fire in a black, black sky. But those days are rare and, usually, to be found only in that brief
period that passes for summer in those high latitudes."

"For the interest in the food was not all-absorbing: frequently, but very, very briefly, a pair of eyes would
break off their rapt communion with the stew and beans, glance swiftly around the cabin, then return in
an oddly guilty defensiveness to the food as if the person had hoped in that one lightning ocular sortie to discover some unmistakable telltale signs that would infallibly identify the traitor in our midst. There
were, needless to say, no such overt indications of self-betrayal on display, and the problem of
identification was deepened and confused by the fact that most of those present exhibited a measure of
abnormality in their behaviour that would ordinarily have given rise to more than a modicum of
suspicion anyway. for it is an odd characteristic of human nature that even the most innocent person who
knows himself or herself to be under suspicion tends to overreact with an unnatural degree of casual
indifference and insouciant unconcern that serves only to heighten the original suspicion."
