Hence I could have answered you as early as our initial interview,

but first I wanted to make your acquaintance and then think things over.

Your four versions of the same
narrative3,
perfectly4 consistent by and large, established your personal identities for me.
你们把事实经过复述了四遍，内容完全相同，这使我肯定了你们的身份，
I now know that sheer chance has placed in my presence Professor Pierre Aronnax,
我现在知道，偶然的机会使得我碰见了负有出国作科学考察使命的巴黎博物馆生物学教授彼埃尔·阿龙纳斯先生，
specialist in natural history at the Paris Museum and
entrusted5 with a scientific mission abroad, his manservant Conseil, and Ned Land, a
harpooner6 of Canadian origin aboard the Abraham Lincoln, a
frigate7 in the national navy of the United States of America.
他的仆人康塞尔以及北美合众国海军部林肯号战舰上的鱼叉手、加拿大人尼德·兰。
I bowed in agreement. The commander hadn't put a question to me. So no answer was called for.
我点点头，表示同意。船长向我提的不是问题，我没有必要回答。
