The Reward For Perseverance
The Reward For Perseverance
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 happsen to them What if they were delayed We felt 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象岛。很容易想象出他们要面临的危险。他们会回来找到我们吗 他们会发生什么呢 如果他们耽搁了怎么办 我们感到如此的孤独和绝望。不过，这种情绪并没有持续太久。没有什么比一顿丰盛的晚餐和一点音乐更能使我们振作起来的了。
The Reward For Perseverance
Life fell into a regular pattern. Staying alive took all our time and energy. For example we needed waater, 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.
生活陷入了有规律的模式。为了活下去，我们花费了所有的时间和精力。例如，我们需要水，而象岛没有。我们发现可以把海上的冰融化成水，然后饮用。可是我们怎么生火呢 南极没有树木，也没有石油，所以我们唯一能使用的燃料就是动物脂肪。它会释放出油乎乎的黑烟，但它即使在强风中也能保持燃烧。
The Reward For Perseverance
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 l tried to vary the meals in whatever way I could. But it was difficult.
食物也是个问题，因为我们在岛上找不到任何蔬菜或水果。我们团队的成员之一莱昂内尔·格林斯特里特在日记中写下了他对这些饭菜感的厌恶程度:“现在的食物基本上都是海洋生物的肉。”如果没有海洋动物，我们都会饿死。作为一名厨师，做饭是我的职责，所以我尽量用各种方法改变三餐。但是，这也太难了。
The Reward For Perseverance
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.
我们必须十分小心，避免过于频繁地外出，因为不断变化的温度可能会使我们生病。因为穿太多衣服而变得太热和因为穿太少而变得太冷几乎一样危险。汗水会迅速结冰。我们中的许多人也因为生火用的动物脂肪产生的黑烟而生病。这种黑烟损害了我们的眼睛，烧伤了我们的肺。
The Reward For Perseverance
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 1 would never forget.
我们二十二个人就这样在冰天雪地中度过了四个月。我们的纪律和团队精神让我们保持乐观，并帮助我们积极、成功地方式应对恐惧感。生日、节日甚至捕获海洋动物之时，我们都会庆祝一番。这是我一生中永远不会忘记的一段经历。
The Reward For Perseverance
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 had 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，我们如释重负、喜不自禁，许多人都难掩泪水。我们终于自由了，终于可以回家了，回归温暖的被窝，享受美味的食物，还有家人和朋友的照顾。我们的乐观和对沙克尔顿的信任让我们顽强地活了下来。而他则用他的承诺回报了我们——把我们从缓慢而痛苦的死亡线上拯救回来。
