/ðə/ /lɒs/ /ɒv/ /taɪˈtænɪk/

The great ship, Titanic,sailed for New York from

/ðə/ /greɪt/ /ʃɪp,/ /taɪˈtænɪk,/ /seɪld/ /fɔː/ /njuː/ /jɔːk/ /frɒm/

Southampton on April 10th,1912. She was carrying 1,316

/saʊθˈhæmptən/ /ɒn/ /ˈeɪprəl/ /10th，1912./ /ʃiː/ /wɒz/ /ˈkæriɪŋ/ /1,316/

passengers and crew of 891.

/ˈpæsɪnʤəz/ /ænd/ /kruː/ /ɒv/ /891./

Even by modern standards, the 46,000 ton Titanic was a

/ˈiːvən/ /baɪ/ /ˈmɒdən/ /ˈstændədz,/ /ðiː/ /46，000/ /tʌn/ /taɪˈtænɪk/ /wɒz/ /eɪ/

colossal ship. At the time，however，she was not only the

/kəˈlɒsl/ /ʃɪp./ /æt/ /ðə/ /taɪm，haʊˈɛvə，ʃiː/ /wɒz/ /nɒt/ /ˈəʊnli/ /ðiː/

largest ship that had ever been built, but was regarded as

/ˈlɑːʤɪst/ /ʃɪp/ /ðæt/ /hæd/ /ˈɛvə/ /biːn/ /bɪlt,/ /bʌt/ /wɒz/ /rɪˈgɑːdɪd/ /æz/

unsinkable, for she had sixteen watertight compartments.

/ˌʌnˈsɪŋkəbl,/ /fɔː/ /ʃiː/ /hæd/ /ˈsɪksˈtiːn/ /ˈwɔːtətaɪt/ /kəmˈpɑːtmənts./

Even if two of these were flooded, she would still be able to

/ˈiːvən/ /ɪf/ /tuː/ /ɒv/ /ðiːz/ /wɜː/ /ˈflʌdɪd,/ /ʃiː/ /wʊd/ /stɪl/ /biː/ /ˈeɪbl/ /tuː/

float. The tragic sinkingof this great liner will always be

/fləʊt./ /ðə/ /ˈtræʤɪk/ /ˈsɪŋkɪŋ/ /ɒv/ /ðɪs/ /greɪt/ /ˈlaɪnə/ /wɪl/ /ˈɔːlweɪz/ /biː/

remembered, for she went down on her first voyage with

/rɪˈmɛmbəd,/ /fɔː/ /ʃiː/ /wɛnt/ /daʊn/ /ɒn/ /hɜː/ /fɜːst/ /ˈvɔɪɪʤ/ /wɪð/

heavy loss of life.

/ˈhɛvi/ /lɒs/ /ɒv/ /laɪf./

Four days after setting out, while the Titanic wassailing

/fɔː/ /deɪz/ /ˈɑːftə/ /ˈsɛtɪŋ/ /aʊt,/ /waɪl/ /ðə/ /taɪˈtænɪk/ /wɒz/ /ˈseɪlɪŋ/

across the icy water of the North Atlantic, huge iceberg was
