Without my noticing it?
我怎么一点都不觉得？
Without your noticing it. And if you aren't crushed by so much pressure, it's because the air penetrates 2 the interior of your body with equal pressure.
您一点不觉得。您所以不被这样大的压力压扁，是因为进人您身体中的空气也有相等的压力。
When the inside and outside pressures are in perfect balance, they neutralize 3 each other and allow you to tolerate them without discomfort 4.
因此，内部压力和外部压力能够达到平衡，内外压力抵消了，所以您可以顶着：不觉得辛苦。
But in the water it's another story.
但在水中便不同了。
Yes, I see, Ned replied, growing more interested. Because the water surrounds me but doesn't penetrate 1 me.
是的，我懂得了，尼德·兰回答我，也比较注意了,因为水在我周围，永不进入我身体。
Precisely 5, Ned. So at thirty-two feet beneath the surface of the sea, you'll undergo a pressure of 17,568 kilograms; at 320 feet, or ten times greater pressure, it's 175,680 kilograms; at 3,200 feet, or 100 times greater pressure, it's 1,756,800 kilograms; finally, at 32,000 feet, or 1,000 times greater pressure, it's 17,568,000 kilograms; in other words, you'd be squashed as flat as if you'd just been yanked from between the plates of a hydraulic 6 press!
对，尼德尸兰。所以，照这样推算.在海底下三十二英尺，您要受到一万七千五百六十八公斤的压力；在海底下三百二十英尺，受到十倍的压力，即十六万五千六百八十公斤的压力；在海底下三千二百英尺，受到百倍的压力，即一百七十五万六千八百公斤的压力；最后，在海底下三万二千英尺，受到千倍的压力，即一千七百五十六万八千公斤的压力；就是说，您要被压成薄片，压成像人们把您从水压机的铁板下拉出来似的！
