野性的呼喚

內(nèi)容概要

《野性的呼喚(插圖本)》講述了一只名叫巴克的狗的故事。巴克經(jīng)過文明的教化，一直生活在美國加州一個溫暖的山谷里，后被賣到北部寒冷偏遠(yuǎn)、盛產(chǎn)黃金的阿拉斯加，成了一只拉雪橇的狗。它目睹了人與人、狗與狗、強(qiáng)者與弱者之間的冷酷無情和生死爭斗，于是為了生存，它學(xué)會了只求活命、不顧道義的處世原則，變得兇悍、機(jī)智而狡詐。最后，在森林中狼群的呼喚下，巴克狼性復(fù)萌，逃入?yún)擦?，重歸荒野。在小說中，作者將充滿冒險(xiǎn)和野性的淘金生活以及在這種特殊環(huán)境中“優(yōu)勝劣汰、適者生存”的客觀現(xiàn)實(shí)表現(xiàn)得淋漓盡致。

章節(jié)摘錄

　　His father， Elmo， a huge St Bernard， had been the Judges inseparablecompanion， and Buck bid fair to follow in the way of his father. He wasnot so large， ——he weighed only one hundred and forty pounds， ——for hismother， Shep， had been a Scotch shepherd dog. Nevertheless， one hundredand forty pounds， to which was added the dignity that comes of good livingand universal respect， enabled him to carry himself in right royal fashion.During the four years since his puppyhood he had lived the life of a satedaristocrat; he had a fine pride in himself， was even a trifle egotistical， ascountry gentlemen sometimes become because of their insular situation.But he had saved himself by not becoming a mere pampered house-dog.Hunting and kindred outdoor delights had kept down the fat and hardenedhis muscles; and to him， as to the cold-tubbing races， the love of water hadbeen a tonic and a health preserver.　　And this was the manner of dog Buck was in the fall of 1897， whenthe Klondyke strike dragged men from all the world into the frozenNorth. But Buck did not read the newspapers， and he did not know thatManuel， one of the gardeners helpers， was an undesirable acquaintance.Manuel had one besetting sin. He loved to play Chinese lottery. Also， inhis gambling， he had one besetting weakness　faith in a system; and thismade his damnation certain. For to play a system requires money， whilethe wages of a gardeners helper do not lap over the needs of a wife andnumerous progeny.
