美国州议员携两子荒岛生存挑战:这样度假才叫赞

作者:沪江英语    文章来源:buzzfeed    点击数:    更新时间:2013-6-18 【我来说两句

 

Senator Jeff Flake vacations like a boss.
参议员杰夫·弗莱克假期度得非常霸气。

Over Memorial Day weekend, Flake took a secret four-day trip to this deserted island named Biggarenn.
在美国阵亡将士纪念日假期里,弗莱克悄悄计划了一个四天之旅——在一座叫做Biggarenn的荒岛上!

The island is located in a part of the Pacific known generally for two things: shakes and death!
这个岛屿座落在大西洋之中,一向以两件事情出名——鲨鱼和死亡!

And guess how far away that is from his comfy office in Washington? Really freaking far.
猜猜这儿离他舒服的华盛顿办公室有多远?——真心非常远。

And guess what? He brought two of his youngest sons Tanner (15) and Dallin (13).
你猜怎么着?他还带上了自己两个小儿子!15岁的坦纳和13岁的达尔林。

And guess what? They brought NO FOOD OR WATER.
然后你猜怎么着?他们没带水没带粮食!

They only brought hammocks, a spear, snorkel gear, hatchet, magnifying glass to start fires, a desalinator and satellite phone at Flake’s wife’s insistence.
他们只带了吊床、一把鱼叉、换气面罩、斧头、用来生火的放大镜、一个海水淡化器和卫星电话,这还是弗莱克夫人坚持他们才带上的。

So how did this Senator and his kids eat on this deserted island?
那么这位参议员和孩子们在这荒岛上是怎么吃饭的呢?

Well first they would swim out into the ocean…
首先,他们要游到海里去……

…and then they would spear a fish.
……然后插一条鱼

Then swim with it back to shore through shark infested waters.
然后带着鱼游向海岸,穿过鲨鱼出没的海域。

Flake tells BuzzFeed that the most dangerous part of the trip was “Swimming with the sharks with a fish on the end our the spear.”
弗莱克告诉BuzzFeed记者,这趟旅程最危险的部分就是“手里拿着插着鱼的鱼叉,边上还有一只鲨鱼跟着你一起游泳。”

They would also spear little crabs.
他们偶尔也捉一些小螃蟹。

There were coconuts they could eat off the ground and they ate “lots of coconuts” according to Flake.
有很多掉在地上的椰子他们可以吃,根据弗莱克所说,他们吃了很多很多椰子。

They would cook all the food over a fire of brush they found and start it WITH A MAGNIFYING GLASS.
他们在一小丛火堆上烧饭,这堆火是他们用放大镜燃着的。

Fresh water? They would pump a desalinator for an hour every night to turn sea water into drinking water.
喝水怎么办?他们每天晚上会启动海水淡化器,每晚一小时,把海水净化成可以饮用的水。
