Guided by his skillful hands, the Nautilus passed by all these different masses of ice, which are classified by size and shape with a precision that enraptured 1 Conseil: 诺第留斯号由这只妙手指挥，就这样走过了所有这些大冰块：按照冰块的式样大小，康塞尔可以很高兴地正确把它们分类，那就是：
icebergs 2, or mountains; ice fields, or smooth, limitless tracts 3; drift ice, or floating floes; packs, or broken tracts, called patches when they're circular and streams when they form long strips. 像山的冰山，冰田或无边际的平坦田场，浮冰或漂流的冰，层冰或碎裂的冰田，圆形环弯的称为冰圈，拉长一块一块的称为冰流。温度表放在外面，指着零下二度至三度。但我们穿着皮的衣服。
The temperature was fairly low. 温度相当的低，
Exposed to the outside air, the thermometer marked -2 degrees to-3 degrees centigrade. 温度表放在外面，指着零下二度至三度。
But we were warmly dressed in furs, for which seals and aquatic 4 bears had paid the price. 但我们穿着皮的衣服。很暖和。这些皮是海豹和海熊供应我们的。
Evenly heated by all its electric equipment, the Nautilus's interior defied the most intense cold. 诺第留斯号内部经常有电气机发热，不怕严寒；
Moreover, to find a bearable temperature, the ship had only to sink just a few meters beneath the waves. 并且，要得到使人可以受得住的温度，到达不太寒不太热的所在，那它只需潜下水底几米深就成了。
Two months earlier we would have enjoyed perpetual daylight in this latitude 5; but night already fell for three or four hours, and later it would cast six months of shadow over these circumpolar regions. 早两个月，在这纬度内，可能永远是白天，但现在已经有三至四小时的黑夜了，再迟一些，黑夜就要长到六个月。把它的阴影遮盖这些环极圈地方。
On March 15 we passed beyond the latitude of the South Shetland and South Orkney Islands. 3月15日，南设德兰群岛和南奥克内群岛的纬度走过了。
The captain told me that many tribes of seals used to inhabit these shores; 8月16日早晨八点，诺第留斯号沿着西经55度行驶。
but English and American whalers, in a frenzy 6 of destruction, slaughtered 7 all the adults, including pregnant females, and where life and activity once existed, those fishermen left behind only silence and death. 过南极圈驶去。这里处处都是冰块围绕着我们，四边封起，无路可通。
