英語聽書《白鯨記》第614期
yet is there no conceivable time or occasion when you will find them in such countless numbers, and in gayer or more jovial spirits, than around a dead sperm whale, moored by night to a whaleship at sea. If you have never seen that sight, then suspend your decision about the propriety of devil-worship, and the expediency of conciliating the devil.
然而，你就想象不到有一個(gè)時(shí)間或場合，在數(shù)目的眾多上，在神情的奕奕上，可以跟它們在那天夜里的海上的捕鯨船邊，圍著一條死抹香鯨的情況相比擬。如果你從來沒有見到過那種場面，那么，請你對于應(yīng)不應(yīng)該崇拜魔鬼，對于安撫魔鬼的利害得失的問題，還是暫緩作出決定為妙。
But, as yet, Stubb heeded not the mumblings of the banquet that was going on so nigh him, no more than the sharks heeded the smacking of his own epicurean lips.
可是，直到現(xiàn)在，斯塔布對于近在身旁的、正在進(jìn)行著的筵席的囁嚅聲，還是一點(diǎn)也沒有注意到，同樣地，那些鯊魚也沒有留意到斯塔布這個(gè)老饕的嘴巴的巴嗒聲。
Cook, cook!—where's that old Fleece? he CRIed at length, widening his legs still further, as if to form a more secure base for his supper; and, at the same time darting his fork into the dish, as if stabbing with his lance; "cook, you cook!— sail this way, cook!"

這個(gè)黑人老頭打廚房里踉踉蹌蹌地踱出來，可是，因?yàn)閯傇谧畈幌嘁说臅r(shí)分讓人家從暖烘烘的吊鋪里吵醒，神色并不顯得很高興。如象許多黑人老頭一樣，他的膝蓋骨也有點(diǎn)兒毛病，所以不能象他其它那些關(guān)節(jié)一樣運(yùn)轉(zhuǎn)自如。這個(gè)人家管他叫弗里斯老頭的人，撐著火鉗（這種粗具火鉗形式的東西，是用兩根敲直了的鐵箍做成的），慢吞吞地一瘸一瘸地走過來。這個(gè)黑檀色的人掙著走了過來，為了表示聽候吩咐，在斯塔布的食具架對面死板板地停了下來；
