导读:TheCanadianwasobviouslyattheendofhispatience.Hisvigorousnaturecouldn'tadapttothi...

The Canadian was obviously at the end of his patience. His vigorous nature couldn't adapt to this protracted im*ment. His facial appearance was changing by the day. His moods grew gloomier and gloomier. I had a sense of what he was suffering because I also was gripped by homesickness. Nearly seven months had gone by without our having any news from shore. Moreover, Captain Nemo's reclusiveness, his changed disposition, and especially his total silence since the battle with the devilfish all made me see things in a different light. I no longer felt the enthusiasm of our first days on board. You needed to be Flemish like Conseil to accept these circumstances, living in a habitat designed for cetaceans and other denizens of the deep. Truly, if that gallant lad had owned gills instead of lungs, I think he would have made an outstanding fish!

加拿大人显然忍耐到了最大的限度。他刚烈的天是不能适应这种遥遥无期的*生活。他一天天消瘦下去,格越来越忧郁。我感觉得到他忍受着怎么样的痛苦,因为我也一样,饱受着思乡病的折磨。差不多过去了七个月,而我们却得不到一点陆地上的消息。此外,尼摩船长的孤僻,特别自从与章鱼搏斗以来,他的情绪改变了,沉默寡言,所有这一切使我以不同的方式来看待事物。我再也感觉不到最初的那种热衷。只有像康塞尔这样的佛莱芒人才会接受这种专为鲸类动物和其他海中动物保留的环境。说真的,这个诚实的年轻人,如果没有肺,而是长着腮,我想他会是一条了不起的鱼的!

Well, sir? Ned Land went on, seeing that I hadn't replied.

“那该怎么办呢?”尼德·兰看到我不回答就问。

Well, Ned, you want me to ask Captain Nemo what he intends to do with us?

“好吧,尼德,您希望我问一问尼摩船长他对我们有什么打算吗?”

Yes, sir.

“是的,先生。”

Even though he has already made that clear?

“尽管他曾经说过,我们还要再问吗?”

Yes. I want it settled once and for all. Speak just for me, strictly on my behalf, if you want.

“是的。我想最后一次确认一下。如果您愿意的话,您只要替我说一说, 只以我的名义就行了。”

But I rarely encounter him. He positively avoids me.

“但我很少碰到他,他甚至在回避我。”

All the more reason you should go look him up.

“那就多了一个去看望他的理由了。”
