本文改写自科幻小说《海底两万里》。小说是以刻画人物为中心,通过完整的故事情节和具体的环境描写反映社会生活的一种文学体裁,主要由三要素构成:人物形象、故事情节、典型环境。西方小说尤其注重通过人物的内心活动来塑造人物形象。如本文通过对阿龙纳斯内心活动的描写,描述了光怪陆离的海底世界。
小说主要是通过故事情节来展现人物性格、表现故事中心。小说情节一般分为开端、发展、高潮、结局四部分。读文时可先概括各自然段的段意,将概括的内容按开端、发展、高潮、结局切分,进而梳理出小说的情节。
小说的环境描写与人物形象的塑造和主题的表达都有极其重要的关系,包括自然环境描写和社会环境描写。本文的节选部分主要集中在自然环境描写。
(一)赏用词之妙
1.While attacking from the ship, Aronnax and Conseil, along with the whale hunter Ned Land, fall into the sea, and discover that the “creature” is actually a submarine.
赏析:本句中的attacking, fall into, discover描述了从“发起攻击”到“落海”到“发现真相”这一连串的动作,使描写具有画面感,使人物形象更立体。最后使用了actually突出真相,表示“事实上前面提到的可怕的海洋生物不是生物而是一艘潜水艇”。actually表示“实际上,事实上”,相当于really, in fact, as a matter of fact。
2.Beyond that the colours darkened into fine shades of deep blue, and gradually disappeared.
赏析:darken意为“(使)变暗”,fine shades此处指细微的色度变化,强调水下光线的细腻质感,gradually修饰disappeared,呈现了动态的渐变过程,增添了表达的生动性。

①In the forest, I fell_into_a_deep_cave.At first, I was at a loss but _gradually my eyes adapted to the darkness and then I began to look for the exit.At last, _I_discovered_it_ and managed to go out.
在森林里,我掉进了一个深深的洞穴里。起初,我不知所措,但渐渐地,我的眼睛适应了黑暗,然后我开始寻找洞口。最后,我发现了它并设法出去了。
②The sky darkened and a few drops of rain fell.
天变暗了,下了几滴雨。
(二)赏句式之高
1.Truly this water which surrounded me was but another air heavier than the Earth's atmosphere, but almost as clear.
赏析:本句描述了主人公对水的感受,在语言表达上运用了两种比较方式,前面用“形容词比较级+than”的结构,后面用“as+形容词+as”同级比较结构(省略了后一个as)。
2.Shall I be believed when I say that, at the depth of thirty feet, I could see as if I was in broad daylight?
赏析:本句运用了when引导的时间状语从句及as if引导的方式状语从句来描写主人公在海底的情形,as if从句中虚拟语气的使用描述了一种本不可能成真的现象。
[提能训练|完成句子]
①I feel much more_confident_now_than I felt this morning.我感觉现在比早上有信心多了。
②When_they_set_off for the countryside in the summer sunshine, I felt _as_if_I_were_still_
with_them.当他们在夏日的阳光下启程前往乡下时,我感觉仿佛自己仍和他们在一起。
(三)赏修辞之功
1.I no longer felt the weight of my clothes, or of my shoes, of my air supply, or my thick helmet, inside which my head shook like a nut in its shell.
赏析:本句中使用了like a nut in its shell来形象地比喻水下漫步时“我”头戴厚重的头盔的样子。like作为介词,表示“像”,经常用于比喻句中。此处运用了比喻中的明喻。明喻是直接在句子中使用like, as, as ...as ...等表示“像”的词语,来明确地比喻和描述。
2.This dazzling carpet, really a reflector, drove away the rays of the sun with wonderful intensity, which accounted for the vibration which passed through every atom of liquid.
赏析:本句是对海底光线变化的描述。作者运用了比喻中的隐喻的修辞手法,将水底沙床比作carpet (地毯),进而又将它比喻为reflector (反射物)。隐喻的修辞手法营造出强烈的画面感。
[提能训练|运用比喻修辞完成下列句子]
①Running_like_the_wind,_he had a sense of freedom.跑得快如风时,他有一种自由的感觉。
②His words became _a_compass for his life.
他的话成了他生活的指南针。
