解析 文意总结题 这是一道根据短文内容判断归纳内容是否正确的题目。让我们来依次看一下答案：
    1．正确阐述了快速帆船承载货物空间虽然狭小，但是在运送保质时间短、易腐烂的货物方面很有优势，因此是正确的。
    2．本句只提到快速帆船的最高速度，不是概括性句子，因此不正确。
    3．海盗及走私犯等不法分子利用快速帆船的快速躲避管理当局的视线，本句进行了正确概括，因此是正确的。
    4．私掠船指的是有权利攻击其他船只的船，而不是被政府雇用来扰乱敌国贸易，因此该陈述是不正确的。
    5．蒸汽船因为具有快速帆船所没有的几个长处，所以很快就代替了快速帆船，此句概括是正确的。
    6．文章提到了苏伊士运河，但是是为了说明蒸汽船的优点，比较片面，而且没有涉及加利福尼亚，因此是不正确的。
