新概念英语第二册(英音新版) 第82课：是妖还是鱼？

Lesson 82 Monster or fish? 第八十二课 是妖还是鱼？

First listen and then answer the question. 听录音，然后回答以下问题。 What was the monster called? 怪兽被称为什么?

Fishermen and sailors sometimes claim to have seen monsters in the sea.

渔夫和水手们有时声称自己看到过海里的妖怪。

Though people have often laughed at stories told by seamen, 虽然人们常常对水手们讲的故事付诸一笑，

it is now known that many of these 'monsters' which have at times been sighted are simply strange fish.

但现在看来，人们有时看到的这些“妖怪”很多不过是些奇怪的鱼。 Occasionally, unusual creatures are washed to the shore, but they are rarely caught out at sea.

一些异常的生物偶尔会被冲到岸上来，但它们在海上却极少能被捕到。 Some time ago, however, a peculiar fish was caught near Madagascar.

不过不久前，在马达加斯加附近的海里却捕到了一条奇怪的鱼。


A small fishing boat was carried miles out to sea by the powerful fish as it pulled on the line.

一条小渔船被一条咬住钩的强壮的大鱼拖到了几英里以外的海面上。 Realizing that this was no ordinary fish, the fisherman made every effort not to damage it in any way.

那位渔民意识到这根本不是一条普通的鱼，于是千方百计不让它受到丝毫伤害。

When it was eventually brought to shore, it was found to be over thirteen feet long.

当终于把它弄上岸后，人们发现它身长超过了13英尺。

It had a head like a horse, big blue eyes, shining silver skin, and a bright red tail.

它长着一个像马一样的头，有着大的蓝眼睛和闪闪发光的银色皮肤，还有一条鲜红色的尾巴。

The fish, which has since been sent to a museum where it is being examined by a scientist, is called an oarfish. 此鱼叫桨鱼，被送进了博物馆，现正接受一位科学家的检查。 Such creatures have rarely been seen alive by man as they live at a depth of six hundred feet.

人们很少能看到活着的这类动物，因为它们生活在600英尺深的水下。
