15、 Unluckily, the Nautilus hit a reef(暗礁) and stopped. It was not damaged, but it was stuck. Captain Nemo, however, was not worried. He looked at his charts. “ In four days, there will be a high tide（潮汐） that will lift the Nautilus off the reef,” he told me. “We will wait for it.”
Ned wanted to go onto the island and catch some animals to eat. To our surprise, Captain Nemo agreed to put us on land for a short time. We were allowed to use the dinghy. 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 and drank the milk at once. 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, a wild pig and several smaller animals like rabbits. We sat near the boat to cook and eat them, but we were suddenly attacked by about 100 savages. They followed us into the water as we rowed away, but they could not catch us. Back on the Nautilus, I found Captain Nemo who was playing the piano and 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. “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.
