You may think that sailing is a difficult sport, but it is really not hard to learn it. You do not need to be strong．But you need to be quick. And you need to understand a few basic rules about the wind. 你可能认为帆船是一项很难的运动，但学起来并不难。你不需要身体强壮，但要反应快速，同时你需要了解一些关于风的基本规则。 First, you must ask yourself, “Where is the wind coming from? Is it coming from ahead or behind or from the side?” You must think about this all the time on the boat．The wind direction tells you what to do with the sail. 首先，你得问自己，“风是从哪里来？前，后，还是侧面？” 在船上你必须时刻关注，风向指导你如何处理船帆。 Let's start with the wind blowing from the behind. This means the wind and the boat are going in the same direction. Then you must always keep the sail outside the boat. It should be at a 90° angle to the boat. Then it will catch the wind best. 我们从后面吹来的风开始，这意味着船是顺风前进。你必须始终让船帆位于船外，和船成90°，这样就能最好地借助风力。 If the wind is blowing from the side, it is blowing across the boat. In this case, you must keep the sail half way outside the boat. It should be at a 45° angle to the boat. It needs to be out far enough to catch the wind, but it shouldn't flap. It shouldn't look like on a flagpole. If it is flapping, it is probably out too far, and the boat will slow down. 如果风从侧面吹来，它会掠过船。这种情况下，你必须将船帆的一半位于船外，与船成45度角。它需要够远才能兜住风，但不能抖动，看起来不像是在旗杆上。如果抖动，可能会飞得太远，船会减速。 Sailing into the wind is not possible. If you try, the sail will flap and the boat will stop. You may want to go in that direction. It is possible, but you can't go in a straight line. You must go first in one direction and then in another. This is called tacking. When you are tacking, you must always keep the sail inside the boat. 在风中航行是不可能的。如果你这样做，船帆会抖动，船会停下来。你可能想朝某个方向航行，这是可行的，但你不能沿着直线航行。你必须先朝一个方向航行，然后再换另一个方向，这称作戗风行驶。戗风行驶时，你必须始终让船帆始终保持在船内。
