As the proverb said, nothing ventured, nothing gained. Hooked by the caption’s advertisement, the writer gave up his cosy life and grasped the chance to secretly get aboard the ship, which was full of spider webs.正如諺語所說：“不入虎穴，焉得虎子”，作者被那船長的廣告給迷住了，毅然放棄了舒適的生活，偷偷地抓住機會爬上滿是蜘蛛網的船。Luckily, being tactful, he was liked by the captain and, later, became a chef of no rank after overcoming seasickness.幸運的是，船長喜歡他的言行得體，在克服了暈船后，他成為一名沒有銜職的廚師。

當船被冰擠碎時，情況相當緊急，根本沒有難過的時間。上帝保佑，乘務員們收集了足夠的爐子、食物和被褥。由于預見到難以忍受的艱難困苦，頑強的船長讓船員們發誓按他主張的那樣去做：保持愉快，永不向氣餒低頭讓步。他還為他們建立起公平的生活框架，以減少自私的行為、古怪的舉動、或者不公平的懲罰。他的堅持不懈我樂觀精神對增強船員生存的信念和士氣是至關重要的。接著，船長毫不遲延地挑選了 5 名忠實而又精力充沛的船員出發去尋求幫助，并許諾一定會回來救留下的人。

Living in this freezing circumstance needed special caution and endurance. 生活在這個嚴寒的環境里需要特別的小心和忍耐力。Booming blasts of wind, which the small huts couldn’t block out, made them breathless. 小棚屋阻擋不住發出轟隆聲的陣風，讓他們幾乎喘不過氣來。Everyone suffered from sun-blindness and blackened rotten toes. They were bored with seal meat and liver, their regular and unchangeable food, which made their stool rather hard. Burning seal fat gave off black smoke which caused everyone to have hoarse voices.人人都長了腐料變黑的腳趾，都煩透了海豹肉和海豹肝，這樣天天如此、一成不變的食物使他們便秘，而且燃燒海豹油散發出來的黑煙，使每個人的聲音都嘶啞不堪。

但是無論如何，所有人都幸存了下來，船長贏得了大家的欽佩和感激。Anyhow, they survived and was filled with gratitude for their admirable captain.(233word/62new)
