阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中；选出最佳选项。

A person who likes to think about travel to faraway places, but who really prefers to stay at home, is known as an “armchair traveler”. Jules Verne, the world－famous writer, was such a man.

In his imagination, he traveled to places where nobody had ever been before. He went round the world in eighty days, which of course was impossible to do in the nineteenth century. He voyaged(航行) sixty thousand miles under the sea when there were no submarines(潜艇). He went even to the moon and explored(探测) the center of the earth.

Jules Verne was not only an “armchair traveler”, he was also an “armchair inventor”. Long before Marconi began his work with radio, Jules Verne had written about television. He had written about Helicopters(直升机) fifty years before the world's first plane flew. He wrote about these things so realistically(实际) that he encouraged people to try out, in real life, the things he had written about. When Richard Byrd returned from his flight across the North Pole in 1962, he said that Jules Verne had been his guide. Simon Lake, the developer of the modern submarine, wrote that Jules Verne had been the director of his life.
