英语翻译
On November 18th,1980,three men went up in a balloon (气球).They started early in London.The headman was Auguste Gaudron,and the other two men were Tannar and Maitland.They had a big balloon,and they were ready for a long way.
Soon they saw the sea below them.They were carrying the usual rope (绳子),and it was hanging down from the basket of the balloon.At the end of the rope they had tied a metal (金属) box.This could hold water,or it could be empty.So they were able to change its weight (重量).It was for use over the sea.They were also carrying some bags of sand.
After the sun rose,the balloon went higher.It went up to 3,000 metres,and the air was very cold.The water in the balloon became ice.Snow fell past the men's basket,and they could see more snow on the ground.There was also some snow on the balloon,and that made it very heavy.It began to go down towards the ground.The men tried to throw out some sand,but it was hard.They tried to break the icy sand with their knives,but it was not easy.The work was slow and they were still falling,so they had to drop some whole bags of sand.One of them fell on an icy lake below and made a black hole in the ice.
At last they pulled the box into the basket.It was still snowing；so cold that they decided to land.They came down in Poland heavily but safely.They had travelled 1,797 kilometres from London!

1980年11月18日,三个男人走进了一个气球.他们早开始于伦敦.带头的是Auguste Gaudron,其他两个是Tannar 和Maitland.他们有一个大气球,已经为一次长征做好了准备.
很快他们看到下面的海.他们带着平常的绳子,他从气球的筐里悬挂下来.在绳子的尾部他们系了一个金属盒.这样可以盛水,或也可以是空的.所以他们可以改变他的重量.这是用于在海里.他们也带了许多沙袋.
太阳升起后,气球更高了.并且升到3000米.空气很冷.水在气球里变成了冰.雪盖在他们的篮子上,他们可以看到更多地面上的雪.还有许多雪在气球上,这使气球很重.气球开始下降.他们试着扔掉一些沙子,但还是很重.他们试着用刀子弄破冰沙,但并不容易.这工作很慢而且他们仍然在下降.所以他们不得不把所有的沙袋全部扔掉.他们其中的一个感到一个冰湖在下面,又在冰里成了一个黑色的洞.
最后他们把盒子拉进篮子.它仍然全是雪,太冷了所以他们决定着陆.他们很安全的到达波兰.而且他们已经从伦敦旅行了1797千米.
