Our boat floated on, between walls of forest too thick to allow us a view of the land we were passing through, though we knew from the map that our river must from time to time be passing through chains of hills which crossed the jungle plains. Nowhere did we find a place where we could have landed: where the jungle did not actually spread right down into the river, banks of soft mud prevented us going ashore. In any case, what would we have sailed by landing? The country was full of snakes and other dangerous creatures, and the jungle was so thick that one would be able to advance only slowly, cutting one’s way with knives the whole way. So we stayed in the boat, hoping we reached the sea, a friendly fisherman would pick us up and take us to civilization.

We lived on fish, caught with home-made net of string(we had no hooks), and fruits and nuts we could pick up out of the water. As we had no fire, we had to eat everything, including the fish, raw I had never tasted raw fis

我们的船漂浮着,通过稠密的像墙一样的树林之中,虽然从地图上知道我们必须是一刻又一刻地通过一连串的山脉通过平原的密林地带.我们没有发现任何可以登陆的地方:事实上丛林没有延伸到河边,松软的泥土使我们不能上岸.用什么方法我们才能上岸?乡间到处都是蛇还有其他危险的生物.但是树林又过于稠密我们只能慢慢前进.所以我们呆在船上,希望到达海,一些友好的渔民会把我们送到文明社会.
我们靠捕鱼为食,用一个家用网和线(我们没有钩子).水果和坚果我们可以从水里拾取.我们没有火来煮熟,我们吃的所有东西,包括鱼,我从没吃过生鱼,我不得不说对此经历我一点都不享受.也许没有海鱼没有在泥土生长的鱼好吃.吃完生鱼后,我梦想着煮熟的鸡,米饭,还有冰淇淋.在这无止境的丛林中,吃冰淇淋是最频繁的也是最特别的梦想.
对于水,有一种选择:我们可以喝泥土混合的水,或者是渴死.我们像那些逃亡的人一样丢掉了由脏水引起的一点小疾病甚至致死的全部担忧来喝水.事实上,最后我们任何一个人都没有得病.
一天我们通过了另一个村庄,幸运的是没人看见我们.我们不希望第二次冒险被投毒:也许我们没有那么幸运摆脱又被偷船的厄运.
