海底两万里 # 第8章 “Mobilis in Mobili”（6） 第8章 动中之动 ( 6 )

原文赏析：

A disciple of such character-judging anatomists as Gratiolet or Engel could have read this man's features like an open book.

Without hesitation, I identified his dominant qualities-self-confidence, since his head reared like a nobleman's above the arc formed by the lines of his shoulders, and his black eyes gazed with icy assurance; calmness, since his skin, pale rather than ruddy, indicated tranquility of blood; energy, shown by the swiftly knitting muscles of his brow; and finally courage, since his deep breathing denoted tremendous reserves of vitality.

I might add that this was a man of great pride, that his calm, firm gaze seemed to reflect thinking on an elevated plane, and that the harmony of his facial expressions and bodily movements resulted in an overall effect of unquestionable candor-according to the findings of physiognomists, those analysts of facial character.

中文译文：

格拉第奥列或恩格尔的门徒一看他的容貌，可能就知道他是怎样一个人。

用不着迟疑，我立刻看出这个人的主要特点：第一，自信，因为他的头高傲地昂在肩膀线条形成的弧线上，他的黑眼睛冰冷而自信地凝视着；第二，冷静，因为他的皮肤，苍白而不是红润，表示他血脉的安定；第三，强毅，这从他眼眶筋肉的迅速收缩看出来；最后是，勇敢，因为他的深呼吸就表明他的肺活力强。

我可能会补充说，这是一个非常骄傲的人，他平静，坚定的目光似乎反映出他高深的思艺。从他整体形态来看，他的面部表情和身体动作的和谐，不容置疑的，他是个直白坦率的人。——根据相面学家的发现，那些面部特征的分析师。
