My Uncle
Excerpt from A Journey to the Center of the Earth
一个坚定果敢、具有献身精神的科学探险家同他的侄儿
和向导汉恩斯按照前人的指引，在地底经过整整三个月的艰
辛跋涉，进行科学探险。
Looking back to all that has occurred to① me since that eventful② day, I am scarcely③ able to believe in the reality of my adventures. They were truly so wonderful that④ even now I am bewildered⑤ when I think of them.
My uncle was a German, having married my mother's sister, an Englishwoman. Being⑥ very much attached to⑦ his fatherless nephew⑧， he invited me to study under him in his home. My uncle is a professor of philosophy⑨， chemistry⑩， geology ， mineralogy (矿物学), and many other ologies (学科).
One day, after passing some hours in the laboratory, I suddenly felt the necessity of eating, and was about to wake up our old French cook, when my uncle, Professor Von Hardwigg, suddenly opened the street door, and came rushing upstairs.
“Harry—Harry—Harry—”
I hastened to obey, but before I could reach his room, jumping three steps at a time, he was stamping his right foot upon the landing.
“Harry！” he cried, in a frantic (疯狂的) tone, “Are you coming up？”
To be frank ， at that moment I was far more interested in our dinner than in any problem of science. But my uncle was not a man to be kept waiting; so I presented myself before him.
He was a very learned man. My excellent uncle, Professor Hardwigg, he studied, he consumed the midnight oil (开夜车), he pored over heavy tomes (大部头书), and digested huge books.
There was a reason why my uncle objected to displaying his learning: he stammered ； and when intending to explain the phenomena of the heavens, he was in such a vague way that few were able to comprehend his meaning.
In sciences, there are many almost unpronounceable (拗口的) names—names very much resembling those of Welsh villages, which added to his difficulty. He would finally give up and swallow his frustration —in a glass of water.
I was bound to him by the double ties of affection and interest. I took deep interest in all his doings, and hoped some day to be almost as learned as him. It was a rare thing for me to be absent from his lectures. Like him, I preferred mineralogy to all the other sciences.
My uncle Hardwigg was once known to classify six hundred different geological specimens by their weight, hardness ， fusibility (可溶性), sound, taste, and smell.
He corresponded with all the great, learned, and scientific men of the age . I was, therefore, in constant communication with, Sir Humphry Davy, Captain Franklin, and other great men.
But before I state the subject on which my uncle wished to discuss with me, I must say a word about his personal appearance. My uncle was fifty years old; tall, thin, and wiry . Large spectacles hid, to a certain extent, his vast, round, and goggle (瞪住的) eyes, while his nose was irreverently (不逊地) compared to a thin file.
The truth being told, however, the only article really attracted to my uncle's nose was tobacco. Another peculiarity (特点) of his was, that he always stepped a yard and clenched his fists (握紧拳头) as if he were going to hit you.
It is further necessary to observe that he lived in a very nice house in that very nice street. Though lying in the center of a town, it was half wood, half bricks and with old-fashioned gables (山墙)—one of the few old houses spared by the great fire of 1842.
My uncle was rich; his house was his own property ， while he had a considerable private income. To my notion the best part of his possessions was his god-daughter, Gretchen. And the old cook, the young lady, the Professor and I were the sole inhabitants.
I loved mineralogy, I loved geology. And if my uncle had been in a little less of a fury ， we should have been the happiest of families. To prove the excellent Hardwigg's impatience, I solemnly declare that, for example, once when the flowers in the drawing-room pots began to grow, he rose every morning at four o'clock to make them grow quicker by pulling the leaves .,
