197. The sea sculptor 2海洋雕刻家 screw-secrete 3
There was a sculptor who specialized 4 in artwork of the sea. He would make seasonal 5 visits to the sea to find sculptural inspiration for his sculpture. On one visit to the sea, he chose a secluded 7 seaport 8, and headed directly for the seashore. After renting some scuba 9 gear, he scrupulously 11 scrutinized 13 it. He found that one of the screws was loose, so he tightened 14 it with a screwdriver 15. He found that a seam in his rubber diving suit was torn, so he seared it closed with a hot iron. He then rented a boat and hired a crew and sailed out to deep waters, where he asked the seamen 16 to stop and let him dive. He then dove in. After clearing his way through the seaweed on the surface, he swam down a few meters to the seabed, where he spied a seamount covered with a great number of sea cucumbers. These little animals were secreting 17 a certain secretion 18 that the sculptor found very pleasing to the eye. So, using his underwater camera, he took pictures of them with scrupulous 10 care. Knowing that sea cucumber was good eating, especially with a little seasoning 19, he considered taking up a few. However, being a man of scruples 21 and knowing that it was illegal to fish without a license 22, he thought it best not to take anything. However, he had a secondary thought. He knew that he was in seclusion 23 and that no one would see him take a few tiny sea cucumbers, so be shoved a few in his sack and headed for the surface. When he got home, he put the sea cucumber in his fish tank and began to sculpt 1.
