Article 1: The Mysterious Encounter with the Great Sea-Serpent

Deep in the vast ocean, where the waves crashed against the rocks, lived a magnificent creature known as the Great Sea-Serpent. This mythical creature was said to be the guardian of the sea, with its long, scaly body and sharp, gleaming teeth. Many sailors had claimed to have seen the Great Sea-Serpent, but few had lived to tell the tale.

One stormy night, as the waves roared and the lightning illuminated the dark sky, a brave sailor named James set sail on his ship, determined to find the legendary creature. Armed with his courage and a trusty telescope, James sailed into the heart of the ocean.

Days turned into weeks, and still, there was no sign of the elusive Sea-Serpent. The crew grew tired and disheartened, doubting the existence of the creature. But James remained steadfast, convinced that the Sea-Serpent was real.

One calm morning, as the sun peeked over the horizon, James spotted a shadowy figure in the distance. His heart raced with excitement as he realized it was the Great Sea-Serpent. The creature's immense size took his breath away, and he marveled at its majestic presence.

Drawing closer, James noticed the Sea-Serpent's mesmerizing scales, shimmering in shades of blue and green. Its eyes sparkled like precious gems, and its powerful tail gracefully swayed in the water. The sight was both awe-inspiring and terrifying.

As James observed the Sea-Serpent, he noticed a peculiar behavior. Contrary to its fierce reputation, the creature seemed docile and peaceful, gliding through the water with grace. It was as if the Sea-Serpent understood the sailor's intentions, sensing his respect and admiration.

Filled with a newfound sense of wonder, James decided not to disturb the Sea-Serpent. Instead, he watched in silence, grateful for the opportunity to witness such a magnificent creature in its natural habitat. He realized that some things in this world were meant to be admired from a distance.

With a final glance at the Great Sea-Serpent, James turned his ship back towards the shore, carrying with him a tale of wonder and awe. He knew that his encounter with the Sea-Serpent would forever be etched in his memory, a reminder of the magical and mysterious wonders that lie beneath the surface of the ocean.

安徒生童话英文版：The Great Sea—Serpent 海蟒 篇三

　　THERE was a l

ittle fish—a salt-water fish—of good family: I don’t recall the name—you will have to get that from the learned people. This little fish had eighteen hundred brothers and sisters all just as old as he; they did not know their father and mother, and were obliged to look out for themselves at the very beginning, and swim round, but that was great sport. They had water enough to drink, the entire ocean; they thought nothing about their food, it came when they wanted it. Each did as it pleased, each was to make out its own story—ay, rather none of them thought at all about that. The sun shone down on the water that was light about them, so clear was it. It was a world with the strangest creatures, and some very horrid and big, with great gaping mouths that could gulp down all the eighteen hundred brothers and sisters, but neither did they think of that, for none of them as yet had been swallowed. The small ones swam side by side close together, as herrings and mackerel swim. But as they were swimming their prettiest in the water and thinking of nothing, there sank with prodigious noise, from above, right down through them, a long heavy thing that looked as if it never would come to an end; it stretched out farther and farther, and every one of the little fishes that scampered off was either crushed or got a crack that it could not stand. All the little fishes, and the great ones with them, from the level of the sea to the bottom, were thrown into a panic. The great horrid thing sank deeper and deeper, and grew longer and longer, miles and miles long. The fishes and snails, everything that swims, or creeps, or is driven by the current, saw this fearful thing, this enormous incomprehensible sea-eel which had come down upon them in this fashion.

　　What was the thing, anyway? ah, we know; it was the great interminable telegraph cable that people were laying between Europe and America.

　　There was a confusion and commotion amongst all the rightful occupants of the sea where the cable was laid. The flying fishes shot up above the surface as high as they could fling themselves; the blow-fish took a leap an entire gunshot in length over the water, for it can do that; the other fish made for the bottom of the sea, and went down with such haste that they reached it long before the telegraph was seen or known about down there; they poured in on the cod and flounders that lived peaceably at the bottom of the sea and ate their neighbors. One or two of the sea-anemones were so agitated that they threw up their stomachs, but they lived after it just the same, for they can do that. A good many lobsters and crabs got out of their excellent shells, and were obliged to wait for their bones to grow back again.

　　In all this fright and confusion, the eighteen hundred brethren and sisters became separated, and never agan met, or ever knew each other after that; only some ten of them remain ed still in the same place, and so in a few hours they got over the first fright and began to be curious about the affair. They looked about them, they looked up and they looked down, and down in the depths they fancied they saw the fearful thing that had scared them—yes, had scared all, great and small, lying on the bottom of the sea, as far as their eyes could reach; it was quite thin, but they did not know how thick it might be able to make itself, or how strong it was; it lay very quiet, but then that might be a part of its cunning, they thought.

　　“Let it lie; it does not come near us!” said the most cautious of the little fishes; but the smallest one of all would not give up trying to find out what the thing could be. It had come down from above, so it was up above that one could best find out about it. So they swam up to the surface. It was perfectly still. They met a dolphin there. The dolphin is a sprightly fellow that can turn somersaults on the water, and it has eyes to see with, so iht must have seen this and known all about it. They asked him, but he had only been thinking about himself and his somersaults, he’d seen nothing, had no answer for them, and only looked high and mighty.

　　Then they turned to the seal, which was just plunging in; it was more civil, for all that it eats small fish; but to-day it had had enough. It knew little more than the dolphin.
