... Well, it so happened that one morning I bought a newspaper and read the advertisement about the Antarctic expedition. 嗯，碰巧有天早上我买了份报纸，看到了有关南极探险的广告。 An expedition to the South Pole with the great Sir Ernest Shackleton—this is the adventure that I have been dreaming of. 与伟大的欧内斯特·沙克尔顿爵士一起去南极探险，这是我一直梦寐以求的探险。And I was ready for it. 我已经做好了准备。At the age of 19, I am fit and full of vigour. 我19岁，身体健康，精力充沛。 However, when I applied to join the expedition, Shackleton turned me down because he thought I was too young and wasn’t qualified. 然而，当我申请加入探险队时，沙克尔顿拒绝了我，因为他认为我太年轻，没有资格。 But I was so enthusiastic about the idea of going along with them that I secretly went aboard his ship, the Endurance, and hid in a small cupboard. 但我对和他们一起去探险的想法是如此热情，于是我偷偷上了他的船“坚忍号”，并且藏在了一个小碗柜里。Unfortunately, three days after we set off I was discovered. Shackleton did not want to turn back so he offered me a job, but only after he promised me, “If anyone has to be eaten, then you will be the first!” 不幸的是，我们出发三天后，我就被发现了。沙克尔顿不想返航（把我送回），所以他给了我一份工作，但他还向我保证，“如果有人必须被吃掉，那么你将是第一个！”He assigned me to be a steward, and I now serve meals for twenty-eight men, three times a day.他派我去当服务员，我现在为二十八个人做一日三餐。 How everyone will envy me when I come back and tell them about the amazing places I have been to! 当我回来告诉大家我去过的那些神奇地方时，大家会多么羡慕我啊！ 21 Nov, 1915 1915年11月21日 知识点：
The journey has not been easy. 这段旅程并不轻松。Endurance became stuck in the ice as we approached Antarctica. 我们快到南极洲时，“坚忍”号卡在了冰里。The ice froze around us and we were well and truly stuck! 冰把我们周围都冻住了，我们彻底被卡住了！We saw the ship get crushed by the ice. 我们看到船被冰压坏了。And when the ship sank, our hearts sank with it.船沉的时候，我们的心也跟着沉了下去。 知识点：
Before we abandoned the ship, Shackleton calmly called us together and told us to rescue our most essential supplies—the small boats, our food, the cook stove, candles, clothes, and blankets. 在我们弃船之前，沙克尔顿平静地把我们召集在一起，告诉我们要抢救我们最基本的必需品：小船、食物、炉子、蜡烛、衣服和毯子。This was no time to panic. We were not allowed to take most of our personal belongings, and Shackleton himself threw away all his gold. 现在还不是恐慌的时候。我们不允许拿走大部分私人物品，而且沙克尔顿自己把他所有的金子都扔掉了。But to our surprise, he allowed Hussey to keep his banjo, Hussey often plays it to keep our spirits up. 但令我们惊讶的是，他让赫西保留了他的班卓琴，赫西经常弹琴来振奋我们的精神。 We are now camped on the ice and we have been managing to survive, but spring is coming, and the ice will soon begin to melt. 我们现在在冰上扎营，我们一直在设法生存下去，但是春天来了，冰很快就会融化的。 20 May, 1916 1916年5月20日 知识点：
We have been struggling for days, but things on Elephant Island are going from bad to worse. 我们已经挣扎了好几天了，但是象岛上的情况越来越糟。We are now crowded together under one of our boats on the rocky shore of this miserable place. 我们现在挤在这个可怜的地方，在岩石岸上，我们的一只小船下面。Soon after we arrived, Shackleton left us to find help on South Georgia Island, 1,320 kilometres away—the voyage was too dangerous and difficult for all of us to make it in our small boats. 我们到达这里后不久，沙克尔顿就离开我们去1320千米外的南乔治亚岛寻求帮助——这次航行对我们所有人来说太危险、太艰难，以至于我们乘坐小船不能实现目标。If Shackleton fails, will we have any hope of rescue? 如果沙克尔顿失败了，我们还有获救的希望吗？No. No navy in the world ever stops at Elephant Island, and no one else knows that we are here. 不。世界上没有海军在象岛停留过，也没有其他人知道我们在这里。 知识点：
I feel low. It’s cold and windy. The island has no plants. 我情绪很低落。天气又冷风又大，岛上没有植物。Sometimes we are able to catch a seal or a penguin to eat. 有时我们能抓到一只海豹或企鹅吃掉，否则，就没有食物了。Otherwise, there is no food. I try to think of happier things: decent food, warm and dry clothes, a cosy bedroom, sunny days, and my mother’s face ... 我努力去想更快乐的事情：像样的食物，温暖干燥的衣服，舒适的卧室，阳光明媚的日子，还有我妈妈的脸……However, these happy memories are soon interrupted by a sudden cold rush of air.然而这些快乐的回忆很快就被突如其来的冷空气打断了。 I shouted, “Shut the door!” 我大喊道：“关门！” “Hold on now, Perce. Don’t you go turning into another Tom,” came the reply. “We’ve caught another penguin, so it’s penguin soup tonight!” 传来一声回答：“要坚持住啊，珀西，你可不要变成另一个汤姆。我们又捉到了一只企鹅，今晚喝企鹅汤！” Bless Frank Wild, the kindest man there is after our leader, Ernest Shackleton. How could I become as selfish and bad-tempered as Thomas Orde-Lees! 上帝保佑弗克兰·怀尔德，他是仅次于我们的领袖欧内斯特·沙克尔顿的最善良的人，我怎么能变得像托马斯·奥德利斯那样自私和爱发脾气呢！ Without Frank and Ernest, we’d all be dead by now. Their genuine concern for others, their perseverance, and their resolve fill me with hope. 如果没有弗兰克和欧内斯特，我们现在都已经死了。他们真正关心他人，他们的毅力和决心使我充满希望。 Perhaps there is a chance we will return home, after all. 毕竟，也许我们还是有机会回家的。 知识点：
