Treasure Island 《金銀島》
Chapter1 The old seaman Squire 第1章 老海員（4）
The captain swore softly, then said," Silence!"
老船長輕聲罵了一句，喊道：“安靜，聽見沒有？”
"Are you speaking to me, sir?"asked the doctor.
“你在對我說話嗎，先生？”大夫問。
"Yes,"the captain told him, swearing again.
“對，”老船長說，又夾著一句咒罵。
"I have only one thing to say to you, sir," replied the doctor."If you keep on drinking rum, the world will soon be free of a dirty scoundrel!"
“我只想對你講一句話，先生，”大夫說，“如果你還不戒酒，這世界上很快就會減少一個十足的混蛋！”
The captain jumped to his feet with a knife in his hand, but the doctor never moved. He spoke to the captain in a calm and clear voice so that others in the room could hear:
老船長跳起來，手裡拿著一把刀，但李甫西大夫紋絲未動。他用清晰、洪亮的聲音對老船長說話，以使屋裡的人都能聽清：
"If you don't put that knife away, I promise you shall die a criminal's death under the law."
“如果你不把刀收起來，我擔保你會被送上絞架的。”
Then followed a battle of looks between them, but the cap－tain soon put away his weapon and sat down like a beaten dog. Soon after Dr Livesey rode away on his horse. The captain was silent for the rest of the evening, and for many evenings after－wards.
他們的目光對峙了一會兒，老船長終於收起了刀子，像一條鬥敗的狗一樣坐在那裡。過了一會兒，李甫西大夫騎馬走了。這天晚上，老船長沒再吭聲，以後好幾個晚上他也挺老實。
