   All these wonders I glimpsed in the space of a quarter of a mile, barely pausing, following Captain Nemo whose gestures kept beckoning 1 me onward 2.  约在四分之一海里的空间内,我没有停步,几乎不断地看到这些珍品。尼摩船长向我招手,我跟着他走。


  Soon the nature of the seafloor changed.  不久,脚下的土壤变了性质。
  The plains of sand were followed by a bed of that viscous 3 slime Americans call ooze,which is composed exclusively of seashells rich in limestone 4 or silica. 接连细沙平原的是一片胶粘的泥地,单独由硅土或石灰贝壳构成,美国人管它叫“乌兹”。
  Then we crossed a prairie of algae 5, open-sea plants that the waters hadn't yet torn loose, whose vegetation grew in wild profusion 6.  接昔我们跑过一段海藻地,它们是未经海水冲走的海产植物,繁殖力很强。
  Soft to the foot, these densely 7 textured 8 lawns would have rivaled the most luxuriant carpets woven by the hand of man.  这种纤维紧密的草坪,踩在脚下软绵绵的,刁”以和人工织出的最柔软的地毯媲美。
  But while this greenery was sprawling 9 under our steps, it didn't neglect us overhead.  但是,不只我们脚下是绿草如茵,连我们头上也是一片翠绿。
  The surface of the water was crisscrossed by a floating arbor 10 of marine 11 plants belonging to that superabundant algae family that numbers more than 2,000 known species. 水面上轻飘飘地浮着一层海产植物,全部是取之不尽的海藻类,这类植物,我们已经知道的,至少有二千多种。
  I saw long ribbons of fucus drifting above me, some globular, others tubular:  我看见水中浮着很长的海带(有些作球形,有些作管状)、红花藻、
  Laurencia, Cladostephus with the slenderest foliage 12, Rhodymenia palmata resembling the fan shapes of cactus 13. 叶子很纤细的薛苔、很像仙人掌的蔷薇藻。
  I observed that green-colored plants kept closer to the surface of the sea, while reds occupied a medium depth,  我注意到较近海面的一层是青绿色的海草,在更深一些的地方是红色的海草,
  which left blacks and browns in charge of designing gardens and flowerbeds in the ocean's lower strata 14. 黑色或赭色。的水草就在最深处,形成海底花园和草地。
