请阅读以下度假者的信息,然后匹配他或她适合的假期生活:
1. Glen has always shown his strong attraction to the sea. His father used to be a sailor and often tells him some interesting stories on wrecks. Glen wishes he would become a sailor just like his father and that he could take real water adventures some day. Perhaps he will have a chance to refloat those famous wrecks in history.
2. Melvin, a born “artist”, enjoys painting very much. His parents give him much support and encourage him to study hard so as to be successful as painter.

4.Boris is always dreaming of flying to the moon one day in the future. He always worships those who have ever had an adventure in space.
