导读:Nearoneo'clock,CaptainNemoga一vethesignaltohalt.Speakingformyself,Iwasgladtooblig...

Near one o'clock, Captain Nemo gave the signal to halt. Speaking for myself, I was glad to oblige, and we stretched out beneath an arbor of winged kelp, whose long thin tendrils stood up like arrows.

到一点钟左右,尼摩船长发出暂时休息的信号。在我来说,我很高兴能休息一下,我们于是在一个海草华盖下面躺下来,这海草的细长枝条像箭一般直插着。

This short break was a delight.

这一刻的休息我觉得很舒服,

It lacked only the charm of conversation. But it was impossible to speak, impossible to reply.

美中不足的是我们不能彼此交谈。没有法子说话,当然也没有法子回答。

I simply nudged my big copper headpiece against Conseil's headpiece.

我仅仅把我粗大的铜头挨近康塞尔的铜头。

I saw a happy gleam in the gallant lad's eyes, and to communicate his pleasure, he jiggled around inside his carapace in the world's silliest way.

我看见了这老实人的眼睛闪出兴奋的亮光,又为表示满意起见,他在铜壳子里面乱摇乱摆,作最滑稽可笑的怪样子。

After four hours of strolling, I was quite astonished not to feel any intense hunger. What kept my stomach in such a good mood I'm unable to say.

虽然走了四小时的路,我并不感到有吃东西的需要,心里很为惊异。为什么会这样,我说不出来。

But, in exchange, I experienced that irresistible desire for sleep that comes over every per.

但另一方面,像所有潜水人一样,我感到很想睡觉,没有法子克制。

Accordingly, my eyes soon closed behind their heavy glass windows and I fell into an uncontrollable doze, which until then I had been able to fight off only through the movements of our walking.

所以我的眼睛也就在很厚的玻璃后面闭起来,我立即掉到无法克制的昏睡中,这昏睡,刚才也只是靠向前的走动才暂时制止了它。

Captain Nemo and his muscular companion were already stretched out in this clear crystal, setting us a fine naptime example.

尼摩船长和他的壮健同伴,早就躺在清澈的水晶体中,先给我们作出睡眠的榜样了。

How long I was sunk in this torpor I cannot estimate; but when I awoke, it seemed as if the sun were settling toward the horizon.

我沉迷在这种昏睡中有多少时候,那我不能估计;但当我醒来的时候,看看太已经向西边低下去了。

Captain Nemo was already up, and I had started to stretch my limbs, when an unexpected apparition brought me sharply to my feet.

尼摩船长已经站起来,我也开始伸展我的四肢,就在这个时候,出现一件意外的东西,我立即站起两脚。
