THE REWARD FOR PERSEVERANCE
锲而不舍的回报
We watched as Shackleton and the boat sailed away from Elephant Island. It was easy to imagine the danger ahead of them. Would they ever return to find us? What might happen to them? What if they were delayed? We fell so alone and desperate. But it was not for long. There was nothing like a good dinner and some music to cheer us up.
我们看着沙克尔顿和小船驶离大象岛。很容易想象他们将面临的危险。他们会回来找我们吗?他们可能会发生什么?如果他们被耽搁了怎么办?我们感到如此孤独和绝望。不过,这并没有持续很长时间。没有什么比得上一顿好饭和一点儿音乐能让我们振作起来了。
Life fell into a regular pattern. Staying alive took all our time and energy. For example, we needed water, and Elephant Island had none. We found that we could melt ice from the ocean and drink the water from it. But how could we make fire? There were no trees growing on Antarctica and no oil, so the only fuel we could use was animal fat. This gave off oily, black smoke, but it stayed burning even in strong winds.
生活转入了常规。活下去耗费了我们所有的时间和精力。例如:我们需要水,而大象岛没有水。我们发现我们可以融化海洋中的冰块并饮用其中的水。但我们怎么生火呢?南极地区不长树,也没有油料,所以唯一可供我们用作燃料的便是动物脂肪。燃烧脂肪会产生油膩的黑烟,但它即使在强风中也能燃烧。
Food was also a problem, as we did not find any vegetables or fruit on the island. One of our group members, Lionel Greenstreet, noted in his diary about how bored he was with the meals: "The food now is pretty well all meat of sea creatures. If it weren’t for sea animals, we would all starve. As a chef. it was my duty to cook, so I tried to vary the meals in whatever way I could. But it was difficult.
食物也是个问题,因为我们在岛上没有找到蔬菜和水果。我们小组的一员,菜昂内尔・格林斯特里特在日记中提到他对菜是何其厌烦:“现在食物全是海洋生物的肉。”如果不是海洋动物,我们都会挨。作为厨师,做饭是我的职责,所以我想方设法去变化伙食的花样。但这可真不容易。
We had to be careful not to go outside too often, as the changing temperatures could make us ill. It was almost as dangerous to become too hot from wearing too many clothes as to become too cold from wearing too few. The sweat could freeze very quickly. Many of us also became ill from the black smoke of the animal fat we burnt for our fires. It damaged our eyes and burnt our lungs.
我们必须小心,不要经常出门,因为变幻的温度可能会使我们生病。穿衣服太多而太热同穿得太少而变冷差不多一样危险。汗水可能很快就会结成冰。我们中的许多人还因为燃烧动物脂肪产生的黑烟而生病。它伤了我们的眼睛,烧伤了我们的肺。
The twenty-two of us lived like this in the cold for four months. Our discipline and team spirit kept us optimistic and helped us deal with our fears in a positive and successful way. We also celebrated our birthdays, festivals, and even the times when we caught a sea animal. This was an episode in my life that I would never forget.
我们22个人就这样在寒冷中生活了四个月。我们的纪律和团队合作精神使我们保持乐观,并帮助我们以积极的态度成功地克服了恐惧。我们还庆祝生日、庆祝节日,甚至捕获到一只海洋动物也庆祝一番。这是我一生中永远不会忘记的一段经历。
When we were finally rescued, we felt such relief and joy that many of us could not hide our tears. We were at last free to go home to warm beds, good food and the care of our family and friends. Our optimism and faith in Shackleton lad helped us persevere in staying alive. And he paid us back by his commitment to save us from a slow but painful death.
当我们最终获救时,我们长长得松了口气,欣喜不已,许多人忍不住流下了眼泪。我们终于可以自由地回家,躺在温暖的床上,品尝可口的食物,享受家庭和朋友的关爱了。乐观和对沙克尔顿的信任帮助我们坚持顽强地活了下来。他给我们的回报则是承诺返回岛上,并且把我们从缓慢而又痛苦的死亡中解救出来。

We found that we could melt ice from the ocean and drink the water from it. But how could we make fire? There were no trees growing on Antarctica and no oil, so the only fuel we could use was animal fat. This gave off oily, black smoke, but it stayed burning even in strong winds.
生活转入了常规。活下去耗费了我们所有的时间和精力。例如:我们需要水,而大象岛没有水。我们发现我们可以融化海洋中的冰块并饮用其中的水。但我们怎么生火呢?南极地区不长树,也没有油料,所以唯一可供我们用作燃料的便是动物脂肪。燃烧脂肪会产生油膩的黑烟,但它即使在强风中也能燃烧。
Food was also a problem, as we did not find any vegetables or fruit on the island. One of our group members, Lionel Greenstreet, noted in his diary about how bored he was with the meals: "The food now is pretty well all meat of sea creatures. If it weren’t for sea animals, we would all starve. As a chef. it was my duty to cook, so I tried to vary the meals in whatever way I could. But it was difficult.
食物也是个问题,因为我们在岛上没有找到蔬菜和水果。我们小组的一员,菜昂内尔・格林斯特里特在日记中提到他对菜是何其厌烦:“现在食物全是海洋生物的肉。”如果不是海洋动物,我们都会挨。作为厨师,做饭是我的职责,所以我想方设法去变化伙食的花样。但这可真不容易。
We had to be careful not to go outside too often, as the changing temperatures could make us ill. It was almost as dangerous to become too hot from wearing too many clothes as to become too cold from wearing too few. The sweat could freeze very quickly. Many of us also became ill from the black smoke of the animal fat we burnt for our fires. It damaged our eyes and burnt our lungs.
我们必须小心,不要经常出门,因为变幻的温度可能会使我们生病。穿衣服太多而太热同穿得太少而变冷差不多一样危险。汗水可能很快就会结成冰。我们中的许多人还因为燃烧动物脂肪产生的黑烟而生病。它伤了我们的眼睛,烧伤了我们的肺。
The twenty-two of us lived like this in the cold for four months. Our discipline and team spirit kept us optimistic and helped us deal with our fears in a positive and successful way. We also celebrated our birthdays, festivals, and even the times when we caught a sea animal. This was an episode in my life that I would never forget.
我们22个人就这样在寒冷中生活了四个月。我们的纪律和团队合作精神使我们保持乐观,并帮助我们以积极的态度成功地克服了恐惧。我们还庆祝生日、庆祝节日,甚至捕获到一只海洋动物也庆祝一番。这是我一生中永远不会忘记的一段经历。
When we were finally rescued, we felt such relief and joy that many of us could not hide our tears. We were at last free to go home to warm beds, good food and the care of our family and friends. Our optimism and faith in Shackleton lad helped us persevere in staying alive. And he paid us back by his commitment to save us from a slow but painful death.
当我们最终获救时,我们长长得松了口气,欣喜不已,许多人忍不住流下了眼泪。我们终于可以自由地回家,躺在温暖的床上,品尝可口的食物,享受家庭和朋友的关爱了。乐观和对沙克尔顿的信任帮助我们坚持顽强地活了下来。他给我们的回报则是承诺返回岛上,并且把我们从缓慢而又痛苦的死亡中解救出来。
