Twenty.Thousand.Leagues.Under.the.Sea
The story started at 1866,Aronnax was French,and he was studying a large monster under the sea.At that time,this large monster's massager was traveling around the world.And after the reserch,he would return from abroad,and then he climbed up the chaser of America,to make the large monster die out.
By the hardship,the large monster wasn't being dying,but Aronnax and his servant,a whaler came the captive of the large monster.They stayed there not bad,but captain Nemo doesn't let them leave,they need to keep secret.And ten months later,they run away,and tell everyone the truth.
Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea is a classic science fiction novel by French writer Jules Verne (1828–1905),published in 1870 under the title Vingt mille lieues sous les mers.The original edition,published by Hetzel,contains a number of illustrations by Alphonse de Neuville and Edouard Riou.The novel is about the fictional Captain Nemo and his submarine,Nautilus,as seen by one of his passengers,Professor Pierre Aronnax.
The story was written before modern sea-going submarines were a reality.It is narrated by Professor Pierre Aronnax,a noted marine biologist,who is accompanied by his faithful assistant Conseil and by a Canadian harpooner named Ned Land.As the story begins,a mysterious "sea monster",theorized by some to be a giant narwhal,is sighted by ships of several nations; an ocean liner is also damaged by the creature.The United States government finally assembles an expedition to track down and destroy the menace.Since Aronnax happens to be in New York City at the time and is a recognized expert in his field,he is invited at the last minute to go along,and he accepts.Master harpoonist Land is also brought on board.
The expedition sets sail from Long Island aboard an American warship,the Abraham Lincoln,which travels down around the tip of South America and into the Pacific Ocean.After much fruitless searching,the monster is found,and the ship charges into battle.During the fight,the ship's steering is damaged,and the three protagonists are thrown overboard.They find themselves stranded on the "hide" of the creature,only to discover to their surprise that it is a large metal vessel.They are quickly captured and brought inside the vessel,where they meet its enigmatic creator and commander,Captain Nemo.("Nemo" means "no one" in Latin,and may have been inspired by a passage in Homer's Odyssey where Odysseus calls himself Ουτις,which is Greek for "nobody")
The rest of the story follows the adventures of the protagonists aboard the submarine,the Nautilus,which was built in secrecy and now roams the seas free of any land-based government.Captain Nemo's motivation is implied to be both a scientific thirst for knowledge,and a desire for revenge on,and self imposed exile from,civilization.Captain Nemo explains that the submarine is electrically powered,and equipped to carry out cutting edge marine biology research; he also tells his new passengers that while he appreciates having an expert such as Aronnax with whom to converse,they can never leave because he is afraid they will betray his existence to the world.Aronnax is enthralled by the vistas he is seeing,but Land constantly plots to escape.
Their travels take them to numerous points in the world's oceans,some of them which were known to Jules Verne from real travelers' descriptions and guesses,while others are completely fictional.Thus,the travelers witness the real corals of the Red Sea,the wrecks of the battle of Vigo Bay,the Antarctic ice shelves,and the fictional submerged Atlantis.Back in the Atlantic Ocean,a group of giant squid (cuttlefish in the usual English translation) attacks the Nautilus,and kills a crew member.Nemo is plunged into deep depression,and allows the submarine to wander into an encounter with the Moskstraumen whirlpool off the coast of Norway.This gives the three prisoners an opportunity to escape; they make it back to land alive,but the fate of Captain Nemo and his crew is not revealed.
Articles no less passionate than logical appeared on the question,for geography is one of the pet subjects of the English; and the columns devoted to Phileas Fogg's venture were eagerly devoured by all classes of readers.At first some rash individuals,principally of the gentler sex,espoused his cause,which became still more popular when the Illustrated London News came out with his portrait,copied from a photograph in the Reform Club.A few readers of the Daily Telegraph even dared to say,"Why not,after all?Stranger things have come to pass."
At last a long article appeared,on the 7th of October,in the bulletin of the Royal Geographical Society,which treated the question from every point of view,and demonstrated the utter folly of the enterprise.
Everything,it said,was against the travellers,every obstacle imposed alike by man and by nature.A miraculous agreement of the times of departure and arrival,which was impossible,was absolutely necessary to his success.He might,perhaps,reckon on the arrival of trains at the designated hours,in Europe,where the distances were relatively moderate; but when he calculated upon crossing India in three days,and the United States in seven,could he rely beyond misgiving upon accomplishing his task?There were accidents to machinery,the liability of trains to run off the line,collisions,bad weather,the blocking up by snow--were not all these against Phileas Fogg?Would he not find himself,when travelling by steamer in winter,at the mercy of the winds and fogs?Is it uncommon for the best ocean steamers to be two or three days behind time?But a single delay would suffice to fatally break the chain of communication; should Phileas Fogg once miss,even by an hour; a steamer,he would have to wait for the next,and that would irrevocably render his attempt vain.
This article made a great deal of noise,and,being copied into all the papers,seriously depressed the advocates of the rash tourist.
Everybody knows that England is the world of betting men,who are of a higher class than mere gamblers; to bet is in the English temperament.Not only the members of the Reform,but the general public,made heavy wagers for or against Phileas Fogg,who was set down in the betting books as if he were a race-horse.Bonds were issued,and made their appearance on 'Change; "Phileas Fogg bonds" were offered at par or at a premium,and a great business was done in them.But five days after the article in the bulletin of the Geographical Society appeared,the demand began to subside:"Phileas Fogg" declined.They were offered by packages,at first of five,then of ten,until at last nobody would take less than twenty,fifty,a hundred!
Lord Albemarle,an elderly paralytic gentleman,was now the only advocate of Phileas Fogg left.This noble lord,who was fastened to his chair,would have given his fortune to be able to make the tour of the world,if it took ten years; and he bet five thousand pounds on Phileas Fogg.When the folly as well as the uselessness of the adventure was pointed out to him,he contented himself with replying,"If the thing is feasible,the first to do it ought to be an Englishman."
The Fogg party dwindled more and more,everybody was going against him,and the bets stood a hundred and fifty and two hundred to one; and a week after his departure an incident occurred which deprived him of backers at any price.
