Audiobook Dictation: “It seems to me as if…”

It seems to me as if my companions, the moment they touched me, would receive a severe shock like that from an electric eel.

我觉得，同伴们一碰到我，就会像碰到电鳗一样受到猛烈的电击。

At ten in the morning the symptoms of storm become aggravated.

上午十点，风暴的征兆愈发明显。

The wind never lulls but to acquire increased strength; the vast bank of heavy clouds is a huge reservoir of fearful windy gusts and rushing storms.

风稍一平息，便又积蓄更大的力量；那一大片沉重的云层，犹如一座装满可怕狂风与暴雨的巨大水库。

I am loth to believe these atmospheric menaces, and yet I cannot help muttering:

我不愿相信这些天象的威胁，却还是忍不住喃喃自语：

The Professor made no answer.

教授没有回答。

His temper is awful, to judge from the working of his features, as he sees this vast length of ocean unrolling before him to an indefinite extent.

看他面部肌肉抽动的样子，眼见这片辽阔的海洋在面前无边无际地铺展开去，他的脾气可想而知有多糟。

He can only spare time to shrug his shoulders viciously.

他只顾得上恶狠狠地耸一耸肩。

"There's a heavy storm coming on," I cried, pointing towards the horizon.

“一场大风暴要来了。”我指着地平线喊道。

"Those clouds seem as if they were going to crush the sea."

“那些云好像要把大海压垮似的。”

A deep silence falls on all around.

四周陷入一片死寂。
