这是篇讲台风的小说
Suddenly he remembered the labourers' boxes:
"突然他想起那些工人们的箱子"
labourers'这是不是少了一个s 应该是labourers's boxes
now they all in pieces, and the money that was once inside
them was falling all over the hold. It was like a great storm
inside the ship, but a stormy sea of arms, legs, and terrified
faces - not of wind and waves. And so it was that the sea took them!
Forgetting the lights, which were why he went on his journey
to the hold in the first place, the boatswain hurried out of
the room and closed the heavy door behind him quickly.
He had to tell the captain this! Crossing the deck, which
had the sea water all over it, he though the number of the
times that the ship was sinking. There was no ladders up to the bridge now,
but he half rode the waves and half climbed up to the wheelhouse.
这是说"他半乘着浪,半爬著到了舵手室"吗
Outside he found the second mate, lying by the door.
'Where's the captain?' asked the boatswain.
'Overboard, like the first mate, and like we'll all be soon,'
"在overboard,像大副而且很快就像我们一样"?
不太清楚like the first mate? 大概是大副也很惨 像他一样躺在门边这样?
said the second mate, laughing strangely.
On his hands and knees, the boatswain moved along the
这是说"second mate 手脚跪在地上"吗?
bridge away from the man, and it was then that he found
Jukes and the captain.

labourers是labourer的复数形。名词复数是单数名词+s的情况时,这复数名词的所有格直接在尾端补上 ' 。你的书没错。http://tinyurl.com/zn9j4vd"这是说"他半乘着浪..." -> 你要这样说也行。波浪起伏->船,船上的人当然也是跟着起伏。浪很大,站不稳,只能用爬的http://www.ldoceonline.com/dictionary/overboard比如被海浪(从船上)冲入海里(或是起伏摇晃剧烈掉入海里)你没给前文,也许前文有交待,比如他看到the first mate被巨浪冲到海里了,所以他想说/他以为 the captain和thefirst mate 一样掉入海里了
