LIMA. Peru―Nearly 60 years after Thor Heyerdahl's Pacific Ocean crossing aboard the balsa(白塞木) raft Kon-Tiki,a Norwegian team is in Peru putting final touches on a new boat to repeat the journey.
"I think we are mentally prepared and we are really,really anxious to put this raft in the ocean," said Olav Heyerdahl,28, the adventurer's grandson and one of the sixmember crew.
Behind him in a dry dock in Lima's port of Callao was the raft Tangaroa―named for the Polynesian god of the ocean―which is scheduled to set sail April 28.
The expedition had been set for last year,but was postponed after key sponsors shifted funds to help victims of the 2004 Southeast Asian tsunami.
In 1947,Thor Heyerdahl and his team sailed their simple raft 5 ,000 miles from Peru to Polynesia in 101 days to support Heyerdahl's theory that the South Sea Islands were settled by ancient mariners from South America. Heyerdahl,who died in 2002 at age 87,documented his voyage in the bestselling book Kon-Tiki and in an Oscarwinning documentary film.
The adventurer's 67-year-old son,Thor Heyerdahl Jr.,came to Peru to see the new boat and cheer on his own son. "Fm very happy for him that he gets this opportunity," he said.
The new 56-foot boat is larger than the Kon-Tiki,with eight crossbeams fastened to 11 balsa logs from Ecuador and covered by a bamboo deck.
The Kon-Tiki carried only the most basic equipment,even by 1947 standards. But the Tangaroa features abundant modern technology,including solar panels to produce electricity and satellite navigation and communications gear. "We have seen this project grow from just an idea,a dream,and then suddenly you are 10 days away from being on the raft on the sea”, said Swedish filmmaker Anders Berg,who will document the journey. " It's like pregnancy,I would say."
The Kon-Tiki was equipped with a simple sail and could not navigate against the wind. Its journey ended when it sank on a reef near Tahiti.
The expedition is a $800,000 venture backed by the Norwegian Environment Ministry,private businesses and Heyerdahl's hometown of Larvik,Norway.

While drunken driving may be on the decline,traffic safety experts remain puzzled over how to deal with another alcoholrelated danger:drunken pedestrians.
Pedestrians struck and killed by cars often are extremely drunk. In fact,they are drunken more frequently―and with higher bloodalcohol levels―than drunken drivers who are killed in accidents,various studies have shown. Forty percent of adult pedestrians involved in fatal crashes have a bloodalcohol level of at least 0. 10―which by law in most states signifies intoxication (醉酒) 一compared to only 25 percent of drivers in deadly accidents,according to recent federal data.
Some types of pedestrian accidents have been declining nationally,especially those involving children,but the number of adult pedestrians who are drunk when killed in traffic has remained relatively steady at 2 ,500 a year. The total number of pedestrians killed annually in US traffic accidents is at least 7 ,000,or one of every seven highway accidents resulting in death.
"We're dealing here,we think,with a very severe drinking problem that leads to a severe highway safety problem”,said Richard Blomberg,president of Dunlap and Associates Inc.,in Norwalk,Coon.
Blomberg,whose consulting company found a very high rate of alcohol involvement in a controlled study of pedestrian accidents in New Orleans,was among several researchers who spoke on the topic at the annual meeting of the Research Council's Transportation Research Board (TRE) in Washington in January.
Pedestrian accidents have not received enough attention in the past,according to Kay Colpitts,who chairs the board's committee on pedestrians. Few methods exist to monitor walking habits,she said,and researchers have been puzzled about how to prevent disasters.

A. Traffic Safety.

A. long delays in traffic signals causing pedestrians to lose patience
B. taking too much alcohol and then hanging along the roads
C. a lack of adult keeping eyes on many children involved in accidents
D. former drunken drivers whose licenses are not allowed to use for a time
( ) 7. According to recent federal data,drunken drivers with an over 0. 10 bloodalcohol level in deadly accidents .
A. are 15 percent less than drunken adult walkers
B. are relatively steady at 2 ,500 a year
C. are at least 7 ,000 in US traffic accidents
D. make up oneseventh of highway accidents
( ) 8. From the passage we know that Blomberg is .
A. a researcher
