2017年12月英语四级翻译题库：科幻小说

　　请将下面这段话翻译成英文：

　　由于现代科学的兴起，特别是天文学和物理学的巨大变革，科学幻想小说的出现才成为可能。真正的科幻小说始于19世纪末儒勒·凡尔纳的科学幻想浪漫故事，不过，凡尔纳的科学只是停留在发明的水平上。

　　参考翻译:

　　Science fiction was made possible only by the rise of modern science itself, notably the great revolutions in astronomy and physics, Science fiction proper began toward the end of the 19th century with the scientific romances of Jules Verne, whose science was rather on the level of invention.
