Location : one of the largest islands in the caribbean sea ( only cuba and hispaniola are larger ) , jamaica lies 145 km . south of cuba and 160 km . southwest of haiti 自然地理：为加勒比海第三大岛屿（仅次于古巴和伊斯帕尼奥拉岛） ，牙买加位于古巴以南145公里、海地西南160公里处。属热带雨林气候，年平均气温27度。
Up i got , was welcomed almost instantly by another cloud of spray , but this time stuck to my purpose ; and set myself , with all my strength and caution , to paddle after the unsteered hispaniola 我刚坐起来，几乎立刻又被溅得一身水，但这次我下定决心，竭尽全力地同时又极其谨慎地朝着无人驾驶的伊斯班袅拉号划去。
What a supper i had of it that night , with all my friends around me ; and what a meal it was , with ben gunn s salted goat , and some delicacies and a bottle of old wine from the hispaniola 这天晚上，我和朋友们一起吃的晚饭，可香着哪！本葛恩的腌羊肉，加上其他好饭菜，还有从伊斯班袅拉号上拿来的一瓶陈年葡萄酒，味道妙极了。
So we proceeded without pausing to take breath , till the whole cargo was bestowed , when the two servants took up their position in the block house , and i , with all my power , sculled back to the hispaniola 我们就这样不歇气地搬运着，直到把全部物资都安置妥当。两个仆人留守在木屋里，我拼尽全力划着双桨又返回了伊斯班袅拉号。
They go the length of declaring that this honest creature would do anything for money , that the hispaniola belonged to him , and that he sold it me absurdly high - the most transparent calumnies 他们说得太离谱了，说这个诚实的人为了钱可以做任何事情，说那艘伊斯班袅拉号是属于他的，而他以荒唐的高价卖给了我，这是最明显的诽谤。
For , though we had a good enough place of it in the cabin of the hispaniola , with plenty of arms and ammunition , and things to eat , and excellent wines , there had been one thing overlooked - we had no water 因为，虽然我们在伊斯班袅拉号的特舱里住得相当舒服，还备有充足的武器和弹药，还有吃有喝，但是我们忽略了一件事我们没有淡水。
The water scarcely reached my waist ; the sand was firm and covered with ripple marks , and i waded ashore in great spirits , leaving the hispaniola on her side , with her mainsail trailing wide upon the surface of the bay 水深仅及腰部，沙地坚实，有起伏的波浪。我神采奕奕地登上岸，撇下在海湾水面上张着主帆歪倒向一旁的伊斯班袅拉号。
