作者簡介
作者:(英國)傑克·倫敦(Jack London)
傑克·倫敦(1876-1916年)，美國20世紀著名的現實主義作家，是美國文學史上最重要的作家之一。出生於美國加利福尼亞舊金山的一個破產農民家庭。從1900年起，他連續發表了許多中短篇小說，因其作品大都帶有濃厚的社會主義色彩，因此有人認為他是宣揚社會主義的作家，但也有人認為他是表現個人主義與民眾哲學的自然主義作家。他的作品不僅在美國本土廣為流傳，而且受到世界各國人民的歡迎，是最受中國讀者歡迎的外國作家之一。傑克·倫敦一生著述頗豐，其中最著名的有《馬丁·伊登》、《野性的呼喚》、《雪虎》、《熱愛生命》等。

文摘
men and the woman. They did not know how to do anything, and asthe days went by it became apparent that they could not learn. Theywere slack in all things, without order or discipline. It took them halfthe night to pitch a slovenly camp, and half the morning to break thatcamp and get the sled loaded in fashion so slovenly that for the restof the day they were occupied in stopping and rearranging the load.Some days they did not make ten miles. On other days they wereunable to get started at all. And on no day did they succeed in makingmore than half the distance used by the men as a basis in their dog-food computation. It was inevitable that they should go short on dog-food. But theyhastened it by over-feeding, bringing the day nearer when under-feeding would commence. The Outside dogs, whose digestions hadnot been trained by chronic famine to make the most of little, hadvoracious appetites. And when, in addition to this, the worn-outhuskies pulled weakly, Hal decided that the orthodox ration was toosmall. He doubled it. And to cap it all, when Mercedes, with tears inher pretty eyes and a quaver in her throat, could not cajole him intogiving the dogs still more, she stole from the fish-sacks and fed themslyly. But is was not food that Buck and the huskies needed, but rest.And though they were making poor time, the heavy load they draggedsapped their strength severely.
