任务三 阅读并回答问题
Ned wanted to go onto the island and catch some animals to eat. He was not happy with the sea food we had eaten for the last two months. Conseil agreed with him, and I asked Captain Nemo if he would put us on land for a short time. I thought he would refuse and was surprised when he agreed. We were allowed to use the boat. Captain Nemo did not come with us. We went alone. Ned was very excited.
“We are going to eat meat!” he said. Half an hour of rowing brought us to the island. It was wonderful to walk on land again. Ned found some coconuts at once. We drank the milk. Then, we walked into the forest and found some breadfruit trees. Ned cooked some of the breadfruit, which tasted just like real bread. We found fruits like bananas and mangoes. Ned still wanted some meat, but it was time to go back to the Nautilus. We brought the food that we had found back with us.
We returned to the island the next day and hunted birds. Ned shot two pigeons, which we cooked and ate for lunch. In the afternoon, he shot a wild pig and several smaller animals like rabbits. We sat near the boat to cook and eat them, but we were suddenly attacked. We all ran to the boat. About one hundred savages( 野人 ) followed us into the water as we rowed away, but they could not catch us.
Back on the Nautilus, I found Captain Nemo. He was playing his piano. I told him about the savages. “You should not be surprised that there are savages on land, Dr. Aronnax,” he said. “They may try to come onto the Nautilus,” I said.
“How many are there?”
“About one hundred.”
“We have nothing to fear,” he replied.
He turned back to his piano. I went back outside. It was dark, and I could see fires on the beach. The savages were still there.
