   It's the heartland of the blacks who occupy all Malaysia, Mr.de Rienzi has said;  雷恩兹说过:巴布亚是占据全部马来亚的黑人的集中地。


  and I hadn't the foggiest inkling that sailors' luck was about to bring me face to face with these daunting 1 Andaman aborigines. 我很相信,这次航行的偶然机会,已经把我拉到可怕的安达孟尼人面前来了。
  So the Nautilus hove before the entrance to the world's most dangerous strait, a passageway that even the boldest navigators hesitated to clear:  诺第留斯号于是驶到地球上最危险的海峡口上来了,这海峡,就是很大胆的航海家也差点儿不敢冒险通过,
  the strait that Luis Vaez de Torres faced on returning from the South Seas in Melanesia,  路易·已兹·德·托列斯从南方海上回到美拉尼西亚群岛时,曾经冒险穿过,
  the strait in which sloops 2 of war under Captain Dumont d'Urville ran aground in 1840 and nearly miscarried with all hands.  1840年,杜蒙·居维尔的几艘船搁浅在那里,几乎全部都要沉没了。
  And even the Nautilus, rising superior to every danger in the sea, was about to become intimate with its coral reefs. 诺第留斯号虽然可以超越海中所有的危险,现在也要来试试这珊瑚礁石群的厉害了。
  The Torres Strait is about thirty-four leagues wide, but it's obstructed 3 by an incalculable number of islands, islets, breakers,  托列斯海峡约有三十四里宽,但有无数的小岛、岛屿、
  and rocks that make it nearly impossible to navigate 4.  暗礁和岩石堵在里面,给航行带来很多困难,几乎没法前进。
  Consequently, Captain Nemo took every desired precaution in crossing it.  因此,尼摩船长为了安全通过这海峡,采取了必要的措施。
  Floating flush with the water, the Nautilus moved ahead at a moderate pace.  诺第留斯号浮在水而上前进,
  Like a cetacean's tail, its propeller 5 churned the waves slowly. 它的推进器像鲸鱼类的尾巴一般,慢慢地冲开海浪。
  Taking advantage of this situation, my two companions and I found seats on the ever-deserted platform.  乘这个机会,我的两个伺伴和我都走上总是没有人的平台上来。
  In front of us stood the pilothouse, and unless I'm extremely mistaken, Captain Nemo must have been inside, steering 6 his Nautilus himself. 在我们面前是领航人的笼间,如果我没有搞错,那是尼摩船长本人在里面,他亲自指挥诺第留斯号。
