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. 这段旅程并不轻松。我们快到南极洲时，“坚忍”号卡在了冰里。冰把我们周围都冻住了，我们彻底被卡住了！我们看到船被冰压坏了。船沉的时候，我们的心也跟着沉了下去。 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。现在还不是恐慌的时候。我们不
14、被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。但令我们惊讶的是，他让赫西保留了他的班卓琴，赫西经常谈琴来振奋我们的精神。 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。1.

If Shackleton fails, will we have any hope of rescue? No. No navy in the worldever stops at Elephant Island, and
18、no one else knows that we are here. I feel low. Its cold and windy. The island has no plants. Sometimes we are able to catch a seal or a penguin to eat. 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 mothers face

However, these happy memories are soon interrupted by a sudden cold rush of air. 我们已经挣扎了好几天了，但是象岛上的情况越来越糟。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。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。如果沙克尔顿失败了，我们还有获救的希望吗？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。 我情绪很低落。天气又冷风又大，岛上没有植物。有时我们能抓到一只海豹或企鹅
