Story synopsis of "Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea"
In 1866, in different parts of the sea, some ships discovered a shiny monster that was hundreds of meters long and occasionally surfaced. . After many ships were attacked and sunk by this monster, the U.S. government sent the frigate "Lincoln" to track and pursue it. French biologist Aronas was invited to participate. This professor at the Paris Natural History Museum had written an article about this marine monster, thinking it was a huge narwhal.
The "Lincoln" cruised in the ocean for three weeks, but found nothing. One night, the professor was admiring the night view on the deck when he suddenly noticed a red light flashing in the dark water, and then a huge thing emerged. The professor rushed back to the cabin to report to the captain, and the frigate immediately sailed towards the monster. As he approached, Canadian harpooner Ned Land threw the sharp harpoon with all his strength. There was only a "ding" sound, as if it hit the steel plate, with no effect. The frigate opened fire, but the bombs were all ejected from the monster's tail, causing a splash. The monster seemed to be enraged. It sprayed two jets of water from its head and struck hard at the starboard side of the frigate. With a loud bang, the professor, his servant Conseil and the whale harpooner were thrown into the water. The professor soon lost consciousness.
When the professor woke up, he found himself lying in an iron room with Conseil and Ned Land sitting next to him. He was puzzled. Two strangers came in to greet them, but the professor tried several languages, but they couldn't understand them. When they were in trouble, their master appeared. He was a tall man with bright eyes and introduced himself in French. His name was Nemo, and he claimed to have severed ties with all humankind. He said that although they were his prisoners, they were still free. Just to keep it secret, he would not release them and demanded that they obey his orders.
Although the professor felt sad about losing his freedom, he was still attracted by the mysterious submarine and the mysteries of the seabed. At Nemo's invitation, the three of them visited the "Nautilus" that he personally designed and built. Although its parts are pieced together, the hull is strong, the structure is reasonable, and it can withstand the impact and high pressure of sea water. The boat has a beautiful living room, comfortable sleeping cabin, library and entertainment area. The submarine's power and oxygen are extracted from sea water and can stay on the seabed for a long time. Food is also taken from the ocean, and there are some delicious fish that the professor has never tasted. The cloth is woven from marine fibers and the tobacco leaves come from seaweed. Nemo also showed them the guns for hunting marine animals and the equipment for walking on the seabed.
The "Nautilus" is sneaking in the Pacific Ocean. Through the glass window, the professor watched the bizarre underwater scenes and colorful deep-sea creatures. When passing by Crispo Island, Nemo sent a note inviting the three of them to hunt in the underwater forest. So they put on diving suits, carried oxygen bottles on their backs, held special shotguns, passed through the pressure changing chamber, and walked on the submarine plain. Nemo shot a sea otter with his gun, and then killed two dolphin-like animals, returning home with a full load.
When the submarine arrived near Kalimantan, it ran out of food. The three of them decided to go ashore in search of vegetables and game. At first, they were lucky, killing a few wild boars and picking a lot of fruits. Just as they were setting up a bonfire on the beach to prepare a barbecue, they were suddenly attacked by the indigenous people. They hurriedly fled into the boat and headed towards the submarine anchored in the sea. But the natives boarded the raft and were reluctant to leave. Even though the professor climbed onto the submarine and got off the bottom, the natives still surrounded the submarine and refused to disperse. Early the next morning, when the submarine opened the cabin for ventilation, the indigenous people really climbed on board one after another. But as soon as their hands touched the railing, they screamed and shrank back. It turned out that the metal railings were all electrified.
The submarine sailed into the Indian Ocean. Near Sri Lanka, Nemo invited the professor to visit the pearl quarry on the bottom of the sea. Pearls are abundant here, and the largest ones are worth up to two million US dollars. The professor watched with great interest the Indians fishing for pearls on the seabed. Suddenly, a giant shark opened its mouth and attacked the Indians. Nemo immediately stepped forward to fight the shark with a short knife in his hand. Ned Land raised his fork to help, hitting the shark's heart. Nemo immediately lifted the pearl diver out of the water and took out a few pearls from his pocket to give to him. The professor admired Nemo from the bottom of his heart for his spirit of sacrificing himself to save others, and from this he knew that Nemo had actually not severed contact with human beings.
It took the "Nautilus" less than 20 minutes to enter the Mediterranean from the Red Sea. It sneaked through the undersea passage discovered by Nemo. There was no Suez Canal at that time.
Along the way, the professor discovered many surprising things. When the ship arrived at Candy Island, Nemo took out a lot of gold from the cabinet and sent someone to send it out in a small boat. Later, when the submarine sailed into the Atlantic Ocean and anchored at the bottom of Vito Bay, Nemo sent his crew to dive and bring up boxes filled with gold and silver treasures from the sunken ship. It turns out that Nemo used the treasures salvaged from sunken ships to relieve the poor and engage in scientific exploration. At the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean, Nemo accompanied the professor to visit Atlantis, a long-sunk continent. They watched the spectacle of sulfurous slurry spitting out from the vents of underwater volcanoes, and also inspected the ruins of Pompeii.
The submarine headed for the Antarctic again, passing through groups of whales. When the pointed whale attacks the fin whale, Nemo, out of sympathy for the weak, directs the crew to attack the pointed whale.
During the subsequent voyage, they experienced many hardships. Sometimes they were blocked by icebergs, sometimes they were besieged by octopuses, and sometimes they were attacked by enemy ships. With amazing perseverance and wisdom, Nemo commanded the entire crew and defeated everything.
After sailing around the world for 20,000 miles under the sea, the submarine encountered a terrifying whirlpool on the west coast of Norway. The professor had no way of knowing what happened to the submarine after it was involved in the maelstrom, because he and his companions narrowly escaped on a small island in Norway after being thrown into the water by the whirlpool, and the submarine was no longer traceable.
In 1866, in different parts of the sea, some ships discovered a shiny monster hundreds of meters long that occasionally surfaced. After many ships were attacked and sunk by this monster, the U.S. government sent the frigate "Lincoln" to track and pursue it. French biologist Aronas was invited to participate.

A strange submarine carried a group of mysterious people after traveling around all the oceans of the world. Got out, saved, that's the end of it. In fact, the fate of this boat can be predicted from the tragic character of its owner, Captain Nemo.
As an excellent science fiction novel, its plot is tortuous, adventurous in nature, rich in knowledge, and the inner conflicts of the characters are deeply revealed. These are its characteristics and attractions; but the most important thing is that The description of the underwater scenery and the dialogue between the characters can be used as an entry point for appreciating this novel. However, this novel also expresses many profound thoughts. When I read it, I was often shocked by its crazy desires and cries of humanity. This must be my inner trajectory of recognition and criticism of certain ideas!
1. Introduction to the story
The story takes place in 1866. Ships from many countries encountered "monsters" at sea. They were either destroyed by collision or were hit and sunk; Regarding this matter, the United States of America sent the Lincoln to chase this "monster", hoping to capture it. However, during the fight with it, the Lincoln was also destroyed. Unfortunately, the three people fell into the water and were captured by the "monster". They are the three protagonists in the book: Canadian harpooner Ned Land, French biologist Mr. Aronas and his follower Conseil.
It turns out that the monster is a submarine named "Nautilus". When they met for the first time, the three of them gained "freedom" because Nemo, the captain of the boat, and Mr. Aronnax reached a consensus on a certain issue. Then they were invited to travel the sea, but when they got along with Captain Nemo, they always felt that there was a shadow that separated them from each other...
2. The spirit of free exploration
Nemo The captain's submarine sails in the sea water, and is not subject to the jurisdiction of the sea and national boundaries. It can go wherever it wants to go. It is already quite free.
One of the outstanding characteristics of Captain Nemo is his yearning for freedom and the spirit of exploration. He has always pursued freedom and persistent exploration: hunting on the submarine plains of Crispoline, two days of living on land when stranded in the Torres Strait, searching for the Arabian submarine tunnels, the landscape of Sandorin volcano, Atlantic Ocean In the plots such as the fossil forest and seabed mineral deposits, it can be shown that he is very eager to return to nature, yearns for the mystery of the sea, and hopes to understand the living habits and structural conditions of seabed animals and plants. This is because he has a strong desire to explore deep in his heart. Reason; However, this blind and greedy desire for exploration gradually evolved into personal heroism and extreme adventurism: in the Sargas Sea of ??the Atlantic Ocean, "the Nautilus dived to a depth of 16,000 meters (that is, every square centimeter is affected by 1,600 kilograms of pressure). In this case, the steel plate and thick glass of the boat were all bent, but he still insisted on exploring; another example was when he drove the boat to the Antarctic and was in danger in the ice channel layer. They thought of many ways It took a lot of manpower to escape successfully; in addition, in the section of the Atlantic Current, Captain Nemo stood on the platform and let the violent storm hit him without flinching, which symbolically illustrates his personal heroism. On the one hand; from the above fragments, we can see the persistent personality of Captain Nemo. In the end, the "Nautilus" finally sank in a whirlpool in the Arctic Ocean, which allows us to see a layer of tragedy in his character: No matter how powerful he is, he can't compete with nature and fate! Captain Nemo's own words can summarize his own life: People can offend man-made rules, but they cannot resist natural rules. From here we can. We can see the logic of his character, innermost thoughts and actions
3. Praise and criticism of human nature
In the terrifying coral cemetery, he died. The companion is buried at the bottom of the calm coral bush to avoid being bitten by marine life. From here we can see that he is a very emotional person; although he is very emotional, his emotion is based on the interests of the small group. The reason why it is not fraternity is related to his experience.
The fate of the pearl divers in Ceylon was very bitter. He once risked his life and sharks for a pearl diver. Fighting and escorting the pearl diver to the ship; after discovering hundreds of millions of taels of gold at the bottom of Vigo Bay, he fished them all up and prepared to distribute them to the poor; but for those ships that intended to attack his submarine, " "Nautilus" will mercilessly ram them and sink them; from the above plot, we learn from Captain Nemo's pity and help for the poor victims and his counterattack against the tyrannical and unreasonable attacks by the military and government. It can be seen that he has a clear class consciousness of love and hate, which is commendable.
However, the peace-loving side was gradually annihilated in Captain Nemo's hateful psychology, and he began to go crazy. As a result, his image in Mr. Aronas's heart plummeted, which was contradictory to his previous "goodness", thus showing that everyone's "goodness" is relative. When it offends his interests or When something is secret, the other side of human nature is exposed.
Captain Nemo is still a very selfish and stubborn person. For example, in the section "People in the Water", Captain Nemo said to Mr. Aronnax: "You come to my boat." Knowing my secret, it is the secret of my life! Do you think I will send you back to the land? That will never be possible! The reason why I want to keep you here is not for you, but for me. Myself!" This is a portrayal of one aspect of his character. In addition, Captain Nemo does not pay attention to the feelings of others, but only thinks about his own plans, which also reflects his purely selfish side.
From some plots in the article, Captain Nemo's role gradually changed from the oppressed to the conqueror. He has indeed become a strong man at sea. This transformation process can be said to be Captain Nemo has a strong self-awareness and will to survive. This is another aspect of the nature of his thoughts, which makes him deeper. This is worth affirming and recalling.
Ending
The dialogue between Captain Nemo and Mr. Aronnax in this novel gave me a lot of life inspiration and made me understand many truths. ; I hope that the flame of Captain Nemo’s spirit of exploration will burn in my heart forever, forever...
Appreciation of the wonderful clips of Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea
1. Aronas hopes: "If Captain Nemo always lives in the ocean of his choice, may all hatred be calmed in this stubborn heart! ... May he, a brilliant scholar, continue to do peaceful exploration work!" ”
The submarine sailed through the warm Atlantic current known as the King of Storms and came to the site where a French patriotic battleship sank. Nemo told the history of the "Vengeance" battleship with passion.
This attracted the attention of Aronas, and sealing Captain Nemo and his companions in the hull of the Nautilus was not an ordinary cynicism, but a very noble hatred. Didn't it attack some ships that night in the Indian Ocean? Wasn't the man buried in the Coral Cemetery a victim of the conflict caused by the Nautilus? And on all the seas, people are chasing this terrible machine of destruction!
2. When the Nautilus slowly returned to the sea, there was an explosion: a battleship was launching an attack on the Nautilus. Captain Nemo was determined to sink it. Aronas tried to dissuade him, but the captain said: "I am oppressed. Look, that is the oppressor! Because of him, everything I have loved and respected, everything I have loved and respected, my motherland , parents, lovers, children, they are all dead! Everything I hate is right there!" The captain did not want the wreckage of this battleship to be mixed with the glorious wreckage of the "Revenge", so he steered the battleship east. The next day, the terrible blow began! The Nautilus deliberately allowed the enemy to approach, and then, with the powerful push of its thrusters, it used its powerful angle of attack to aim at the weak spot below the battleship's buoy line and pass across it! In an instant, the hull of the battleship cracked, exploded, and sank rapidly. Its masts were crowded with victims. Then, the huge black body submerged into the water, and together with it, all the dead bodies were swept away by the extremely powerful whirlpool...
3. When the Nautilus arrived at the South Pole, it planned to surface for air. Unexpectedly, their path was frozen and they could not breathe. Although the Nautilus was very advanced, it still could not produce its own oxygen. Without oxygen, it could not survive. They hit the ice with a corner and used a pickaxe to cut the ice, but while they were cutting the ice, the ice layer continued to thicken. Later, they used a high-pressure water gun to spray hot water to melt the ice layer and escaped.
4. .. "Help! Help!" I shouted, rowing with both hands as hard as I could and swimming towards the Lincoln. The clothes I'm wearing are in the way
. My clothes were wet and stuck to my body, making my movements difficult. I'm going to sink! I can't breathe! ..."Help!"
This is my last cry. My mouth was full of sea water. I struggled hard, and I was about to be swept into the abyss... Suddenly my clothes were pulled by a strong hand, and I felt myself being lifted out of the water. I heard, I did hear this voice ringing in my ears: "If you don't mind the inconvenience and are willing to lean on my shoulder, you can be more...
5. But hope is always deep-rooted in people's hearts! And we are two people. Finally, I want to be sure - this seems impossible - even if I want to. Break all the illusions in my heart,
Even if I want to "desperate", I can't do it now! The time when the battleship collided with the whale was around eleven o'clock at night.
We still have to swim for eight hours until the sun rises. We can swim for eight hours alternately. The sea is quite calm and we won't be too tired. My eyes wanted to see through the deep darkness, but I couldn't see anything, only the waves stirred up by our swimming movements showed a little sparkle, broken under my hands, dotted with mirror-like<. /p>
The glittering water rises like pieces of blue-gray metal
Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea" was written in 1870. This famous book is Verne's narration of the French biologist A. What Ronnus saw and heard while traveling in the ocean!
This happened in 1866, when people at sea discovered a huge monster called a narwhal. He (Aronas) accepted it. He accepted the invitation and participated in the capture operation, but unfortunately fell into the water with his servant (Consell) during the capture process, and accidentally swam onto the back of the monster. Later, it was learned that the alarming narwhal turned out to be a ship. A wonderfully constructed diving boat. This diving boat was secretly built by Captain Nemo on a desert island in the ocean. Starting from the Pacific Ocean, it passed through coral islands, the Indian Ocean, the Red Sea, the Mediterranean Sea, and then entered the Atlantic Ocean, seeing many rare marine plants and strange scenes in the water. Finally, when the diving boat arrived at the coast of Norway, Aronas left without saying goodbye and told him everything he knew. The secrets of the seabed are revealed to the world.
The protagonist, Captain Nemo, is a romantic and mysterious person. He used his knowledge to carefully research, design and build this narwhal. Monster - the diving ship (Nautilus), he and the diving ship conduct large-scale scientific research on the seabed, but it seems that this is not the only purpose of his lonely life. He avoids his enemies and persecutors and searches on the seabed. He was free and sad about his lonely life. In this lonely life, he happened to meet Aaron Nass and experienced scenes of thrilling and exciting events with him.
Among them. There are a few places that I find more fascinating: Part 1, Chapter 20, Torres Strait: The "Nautilus" encountered difficulties for the first time and hit the rocks in the strait and was forced to stop. However, this pair of Aronas and his servant Kang. Serge and harpooner Ned Land were a good thing.
Because they were able to stay on the nearby island for two days, this is such a generous treatment from God for a person who used to live on land but stayed at sea for 2 to 3 months for some reason! However, when he just wanted to enjoy the spoils, he was besieged by the natives. It ended with Captain Nemo calmly dealing with the siege of the natives.
The third chapter of the second part is a pearl worth ten million francs: This chapter describes Captain Nemo, Ronas, his servant Conseil and the harpooner Ned Land collecting pearls. It was discovered that an Indian pearl diver was attacked by a black shark. Fortunately, Captain Nemo, with his unparalleled bravery and Ned Land's familiarity with the shark's body structure, stabbed the shark's heart with a harpoon and ended his life. end. In the details, we can see that Captain Nemo, as one of the representatives of the human race who escaped to the bottom of the sea, showed selfless dedication to mankind. No matter what he usually says, this strange man's kind heart has not been completely wiped out yet.
This book also writes about iceberg road closures, octopus attacks and many other dangerous situations. The plots of these stories are very twists and turns, confusing and ever-changing characters' fates, rich and detailed scientific knowledge and wonderful fantasy with realistic details.
The author also has originality and clever layout. During the long journey, he sometimes pushed me into a dangerous environment full of dangers, and sometimes brought me into a wonderful realm of poetry and painting; the depiction of magnificent scenes and the meticulous depiction alternated. . The reading is fascinating and hard to put down. This is indeed a good book worth reading
My thoughts after reading "Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea"
Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea is a book by Jules Verne, the "father of science fiction" A masterpiece. The stories in the book are full of twists and turns, thrilling and exciting. Undersea forest, coral kingdom, going to the South Pole, killing octopus groups...
The origin of the story is that a monster appears in the oceans around the world, bigger than a whale. Some people think it is a "unicorn" whale". Therefore, the American cruiser "Lincoln" went specially to hunt down this "narwhal". Mr. Tuaronnas, a well-known figure in the oceanographic community, was invited to participate. Also traveling with him were Aronnax's servant Conor and the Canadian whaling expert Ned Land.
During the pursuit, Aronas, Conor, and Ned Land unfortunately fell into the water and were rescued by the "narwhal". Only then did they discover that the monster that appeared in the ocean "Narwhal" is a submarine with sophisticated structure. Nemo, the captain of the "Nautilus" (the name of the submarine), invited them to make another underwater trip together. They overcame many difficulties and saved themselves from danger many times, but in the end they still fell into the whirlpool, with their life and death uncertain and their whereabouts unknown. Aronas, Conor, and Ned Land escaped in a small boat preparing to escape, and announced to the world what they knew about the underwater world.
The characterization of the characters in the book is successful. Aronas was a man who was brave enough to explore knowledge and was never satisfied. When Ned persuaded him to escape, he hesitated because he did not want to let go of this golden opportunity. He carefully observed all kinds of strange discoveries on the seabed and took notes. Conor, a young man loyal to his master, classified the animals like the back of his hand. Just know the name of any animal. You can tell what category it belongs to, which branch it belongs to... very detailed. Netherlands, he is a hot-tempered person, but he is also very kind. He once saved Captain Nemo's life and was very brave. Captain Nemo, this is a mysterious character, his temper is abnormal and unpredictable, good and bad sometimes, and he doesn't know what hatred he has for the land. This is a complete mystery. Even he himself is a mystery.
The imagination in the book is reasonable and bold. Many of the things in the book have already been realized by us now. Such as submarines, electricity, diving suits, searchlights, etc. Many ideas have been very successful.
After reading this book, I have a certain understanding of the plot, characters and underwater world. I’m not bragging, this book is really good. I hope everyone will read this book when you have time. Its thrilling story will definitely attract you deeply.
Introduction: French biologist Aronas received an invitation from the U.S. Navy Department and boarded the destroyer USS Lincoln to participate in the activity of "exploding sea monsters."
After all the hardships, the "monster" was not eliminated, and the destroyer was severely damaged by the "monster". The biologist and his servant Conseil were specially invited to the destroyer to eliminate the "monster". Netherlands, one of the whalers, became a prisoner of the "monster"! It turns out that the "monster" is a submarine not yet known to the world - the "Nautilus".
The submarine did treat the prisoners preferentially; however, in order to keep their secrets, the submarine captain Nemo would never allow them to leave. Aronas and his party had no choice but to travel around the oceans with the submarine.
Fragment: The temperature and color of its water in this bay are not very strong yet, but it has begun to form. It flows south, along equatorial Africa, and is warmed by the sunshine in the tropics. Crossing the Atlantic Ocean, it reaches San Roquero on the coast of Brazil, and then divides into two tributaries, one of which flows into Brazil. Try to absorb as much warm water as possible from the Lesbos sea. At this time, the Atlantic warm current is responsible for restoring the balance of sea temperatures and mixing tropical water with Arctic water to begin its balancing role. In the Gulf of Mexico, it is sunburned to white heat and runs north along the coast of North America as far as Newfoundland.
Then, pushed by the cold current in the Davis Strait, it turns westward, flows into the Atlantic Ocean, and flows along an oblique navigation curve on a large circle in this part of the world. At 43 degrees north latitude, the warm current divides into two branches. One of them is helped by the northeast monsoon and returns to the Gulf of Gascony and the Athol Islands. The other branch warms the coasts of Ireland and Norway and flows directly to Sibo. In the area around Spezburg, its temperature drops to four degrees, creating an arctic free-flowing sea.
At this time, the Nautilus was sailing on this river in the Atlantic Ocean. Coming out of the Bahamashui crossing, at a place fourteen miles wide and three hundred and fifty meters deep, the warm current moves at a speed of eight kilometers per hour. This speed becomes slower as you go northward; this regularity is necessary because it has been pointed out that if the speed and direction of the warm current change, the climate in Europe will be unpredictable.
His face has fixed characteristics and will be forever engraved in human memory. There are two slightly curved wrinkles on the broad forehead, the white eyebrows are unusually thick, and the beard of a loyal elder reminds people of the Moses statue in Dijon. The old face became calm and gentle, leaving traces of illness, sadness and kindness. How much he has changed from being rough and bold when he was twenty, to being rigid and serious when he was in the army in Sevastopol, to what he is now! But his bright eyes were still sharp and deep, appearing frank and forthright, without any pretensions but knowing everything. ”——"The Biography of Tolstoy"
I cry, I am in pain, I just want the truth——Leo Tolstoy
Leo Tolstoy The situation is completely different. He is from a noble family, has a superior status, and has no worries about food and clothing. He is in good health, happily married, and has a wife and children whom he loves deeply. He has a high literary talent, and every one of his works has received rave reviews. , he is a towering literary peak. He not only shows readers a broad picture of Russia's modern history, but also brilliantly writes the soul of the Russian nation. He creates vivid characters, each of which makes people click. The leader said: “Yes, that’s what Russians are like. "In short, he is a person who seems to ordinary people to lack nothing, but his pain arises precisely from this. He is kind-hearted and compassionate by nature. He feels calm about the miserable situation of the urban poor, and feels numb for the poverty of farmers' lives. And suffering, he feels guilty because of his material wealth and comfortable life, and is distressed because he cannot bear to get rid of the fetters of his family and live an ascetic life... In short, his philanthropic spirit makes him unable to endure the suffering of others. He longs for the unity of the world and the prosperity of the people. He wanted everyone to live a happy and peaceful life.
In order to realize his ideal, he first changed his living conditions and allowed himself to live and work with farmers. He implemented reforms in his manor, liberated serfs, and distributed land to tenants. He promoted the "religion of love" and advocated "Don't resist evil with violence", and even said, "If the enemy wants to slap you on the left cheek, stick out the right cheek as well." In his later years, his ideas became more serious. He even planned to donate all his property, but his idea was criticized. After being rejected by his family, he ran away from home at the age of eighty-two, and finally died alone on the way
