[00:05.840] | --- Listen to the tape then answer the question below. |
[00:11.360] | --- What would have happened if only two of the sixteen water-tight compartments had been flooded? |
[00:19.720] | The great ship, Titanic, sailed for New York from Southampton on April 10th, |
[00:29.040] | She was carrying 1,316 passengers and a crew of 891 |
[00:37.360] | Even by modern standards, the 46,000 ton Titanic was a colossal ship. 。 |
[00:44.560] | At that time, however, she was not only the largest ship that had ever been built, |
[00:50.240] | but was regarded as unsinkable, for she had sixteen watertight compartments. |
[00:57.280] | Even if two of these were flooded, she would still be able to float. |
[01:02.640] | The tragic sinking of this great liner will always be remembered, for she went down on her first voyage with heavy loss of life. |
[01:13.080] | Four days after setting out, while the Titanic was sailing across the icy waters of the North Atlantic,^“ |
[01:20.480] | a huge iceberg was suddenly spotted by a lookout. |
[01:25.320] | After the alarm had been given, the great ship turned sharply to avoid a direct collision. |
[01:33.040] | The Titanic turned just in time, narrowly missing the immense wall of ice which rose over 100 feet out of the water beside her.^“ |
[01:44.040] | Suddenly, there was a slight trembling sound from below, and the captain went down to see what had happened. |
[01:52.280] | The noise had been so faint that no one thought that the ship had been damaged. |
[01:58.080] | Below, the captain realized to his horror that the Titanic was sinking rapidly, |
[02:04.200] | for five of her sixteen watertight compartments had already been flooded!^16 |
[02:10.120] | The order to abandon ship was given and hundreds of people plunged into the icy water. |
[02:15.960] | As there were not enough lifeboats for everybody, 1,500 lives were lost.^ |

[00:01.040] | 泰坦尼克”号的沉没 |
[00:05.840] | ^听录音,然后回答以下问题。 |
[00:11.360] | |
[00:19.720] | ^巨轮“泰坦尼克”号1912年4月10日从南安普敦起锚驶向纽约。 |
[00:29.040] | ^船上载有1,316名乘客与891名船员。 |
[00:37.360] | ^即便用现代标准来衡量,45,000 吨的“泰坦尼克”号也算得上一艘巨轮了。 |
[00:44.560] | ^当时,这艘轮船不仅是造船史上建造的最大的一艘船, |
[00:50.240] | ^而且也被认为是不会沉没的。因为船由16个密封舱组成, |
[00:57.280] | ^即使有两个舱进水,仍可漂浮在水面上。 |
[01:02.640] | ^然而,这艘巨轮首航就下沉,造成大批人员死亡。人们将永远记着这艘巨轮的沉没惨剧。 |
[01:13.080] | 泰坦尼克”起航后的第4天,它正行驶在北大西洋冰冷的海面上。 |
[01:20.480] | ^突然,瞭望员发现一座冰山。 |
[01:25.320] | ^警报响过不久,巨轮急转弯,以避免与冰山正面相撞。 |
[01:33.040] | 泰坦尼克”这个弯拐得及时,紧贴着高出海面100英尺的巨大的冰墙擦过去。 |
[01:44.040] | ^突然,从船舱下部传来一声轻微的颤音,船长走下船舱去查看究竟。 |
[01:52.280] | ^由于这个声音非常轻,没人会想到船身已遭损坏。 |
[01:58.080] | ^在下面,船长惊恐地发现“泰坦尼克”号正在急速下沉, |
[02:04.200] | 个密封舱已有5个进水。 |
[02:10.120] | ^于是,他发出了弃船的命令,几百人跳进了冰冷刺骨的海水里。 |
[02:15.960] | ^由于没有足够的救生艇运载所有乘客,结果,1,500 人丧生。 |
