About The Author ——Jules Verne
Jules Verne (1828-1905) was a French author who is considered as the “Father of Science Fiction ”. He is best known for his novels Twenty Thousand Leagues under the Sea (1869–1870), Around the World in Eighty Days (1873) and so on. When Verne was young, he would often row a boat around his hometown Nantes, a busy harbor city, where he found the sight of all the ships very exciting. This stirred his imagination, and he would later write inventions in his science fiction stories that were uncannily accurate in their predictions of future transportation and technology.
Chapter 1 – 6
I, as a naturalist, joined an expedition on sea together with Conseil and Ned. However, later we were held captive by Nemo, the captain of a ship called Nautilus, which kept sailing under the sea and attacking ships on the sea. While learning the wonderful world beneath the oceans, I experienced a lot—I saw Nemo killing orcas, escaped from the Papuans, walked under water, and fought against a shark with the others.

Writing Background
20,000 Leagues under the Sea is a classic science fiction published in 1869. The book is based on the end of the nineteenth century when many explorers were discovering new species and ideas. It was also a time when science and technology inspired the writing of popular science fictions. The story is also set in the background that the powerful countries at that time, for example the Great Britain, were busy colonizing countries in Africa, Asia, and so on.
