His crew built the three vessels slowly. As soon as they finished, they gathered all the equip- ment quickly and left the Port. Columbus treated his crew rudely because they were erimi- nals, so they behaved violently. After some time, they had neither food nor water and no land was in sight. So they wanted to kill him desperately, when Rodrigo de Triana shouted unexpectedly and happily, “Land ahoy’. They landed on a strange island. The natives there looked at them fearfully. The strangers brougth animals and weapons and they spoke a strange language they never heard or spoke before. Columbus and his crew thanked God for arriving at that place safely. That is why they named this island San Salvador. Exercise I Change the following sentences to use adverbs of manner.
