  Four days after setting out, while the “Titanic” was sailing across the ocean (海洋) ,a very large iceberg (冰山) was suddenly seen. The great ship turned quickly on time, but before long there was a sudden sound from below. and the captain(船長(zhǎng)) went down to see what was the matter. The noise was so low that no one thought that the ship had been broken. To the captain's great surprise, the “Titanic” was sinking fast as five of her sixteen compartments had already broken!
