Ruth Becker was twelve years old in March 1912 when she travelled from India to England with her little brother, Richard, aged one, her sister, Marion, aged four, and their mother.

They were on their way home to the USA.

After travelling by boat through the Suez Canal and across the Mediterranean Sea, they arrived in England.

They planned to cross the Atlantic Ocean to the USA in a famous new ship, the Titanic.

The Titanic was the biggest and most modern ship in the world, and this was its first voyage.

It was as long as three football fields and eleven storeys high.

The newspapers said the Titanic was like a palace.

They also said it could not sink.

When the Titanic left England, the weather was good.

For the first four days, the passengers enjoyed life on the ship.

Then, on Sunday, April 14, the weather turned cold.

The northern part of the Atlantic is near the Arctic Circle, so there were icebergs in the water.

At 11.

40 p.

M. a lookout saw a big iceberg 500 metres ahead.

An officer tried to turn the ship, but it was going too fast, and the Titanic hit the iceberg.

At first, nobody was worried, just after midnight, Ruth and her mother woke up.

There was a strange silence because the ship’s engines had stopped.

Ruth’s mother got up and spoke to a steward outside her cabin.

He said, “Don’t worry.

It’s only a small problem”.

She went back to bed, but some time later a steward knocked on their door and said, “Put your life jackets on and go up to the lifeboat deck”.

“Do we have time to dress?

” she asked.

“No, Madam, you have time for nothing.

The ship is sinking”.

Ruth and her mother woke the two younger children.

They put coats over their nightclothes and ran up the stairs to the lifeboats.

There were not enough lifeboats, so the captain said, “Women and children first”.

Men had to say goodbye to their families and stay on the ship.

It was very cold, so Mrs.

Becker sent Ruth back to their cabin for warm blankets.

When Ruth returned, officers were putting her little brother and sister into a lifeboat.

Ruth’s mother got into the boat with them, but an officer stopped Ruth and said, “Sorry.

It’s full”.

He lowered the boat into the sea, and Ruth was left on the ship.

Ruth’s mother shouted, “Ruth!

Get in the next lifeboat!

” A few minutes later, Ruth was in another lifeboat.

But more than 1, 500 people were still on the ship.

Then the great ship broke into two halves.

The front half sank below the water, and two minutes later the other half sank.

Hundreds of people were in the water, crying for help.

But nobody could help them because the lifeboats were already dangerously full.

About three hours later, Ruth saw a light from another ship.

When the ship got to them, Ruth was so cold that she could not move.

Men pulled her onto the ship and gave her a hot drink.

Then Ruth ran all over the ship, looking for her mother and her brother and sister.

She watched as other lifeboats came in.

Hours later, she found them.

All three of them were safe.

In the end, 705 people were saved.

But many were not as lucky as Ruth.

More than 1, 500 people died in the freezing water.

And Ruth Becker?

She lived a long life.

She finished school and went to university, became a teacher, had three children, and lived to the age of 90.

Рут

Беккер было двенадцать лет в марте 1912 года, когда она путешествовала из Индии

в Англию со своим младшим братом Ричардом в возрасте одного года, ее сестрой

Мэрион в возрасте четырех лет и их матерью.

Они были на пути домой в США.

После

поездки на лодке по Суэцкому каналу и через Средиземное море они прибыли в

Англию.

Они планировали пересечь Атлантический океан в США на знаменитом новом

корабле «Титаник».

«Титаник» был самым большим и самым современным судном в

мире, и это был его первый рейс.

Он был в длину как три футбольных поля и

одиннадцать этажей в высоту.

В газетах говорилось, что «Титаник» был как дворец.

Они также говорили, что он не может утонуть.

Когда «Титаник» покинул Англию,

погода была хорошей.

Первые четыре дня пассажиры наслаждались жизнью на

корабле.

Затем, в воскресенье, 14 апреля, погода стала холодной.

Северная часть

Атлантического океана расположена близко к Полярному круга, поэтому в воде были

айсберги.

В 11.

40 вечера наблюдатель увидел большой айсберг в 500 метрах

впереди.

Офицер попытался повернуть корабль, но он шел слишком быстро, и

«Титаник» врезался в айсберг.

Сначала, никто не волновался, только после полуночи,

Рут и ее мать проснулись.

Была странная тишина, потому что корабельные

двигатели остановились.

Мать Рут встала и поговорила с стюардом возле своей

каюты.

Он сказал : «Не беспокойся.

Это небольшая проблема».

Она вернулась в

постель, но через некоторое время в стюард постучал в дверь и сказал : «Наденьте

спасательные жилеты и поднимитесь на палубу спасательной шлюпки».

«У нас есть

время, чтобы одеться?

» - спросила она.

«Нет, мадам, у вас ни на что нет

времени.

Корабль тонет».

Рут и ее мать разбудили двух младших детей.

Они надели

пальто поверх своих ночных рубашек и побежали вверх по лестнице к спасательным

шлюпкам.

Не хватало спасательных шлюпок, поэтому капитан сказал : «Сначала

женщины и дети».

Мужчины пришлось попрощаться со своими семьями и остаться на

корабле.

Было очень холодно, поэтому миссис Беккер отправила Рут обратно в каюту

за теплыми одеялами.

Когда Рут вернулась, офицеры усаживали ее маленького брата

и сестру в спасательную шлюпку.

Мать Рут села в лодку вместе с ними, но офицер

остановил Рут и сказал : «Извините.

Лодка заполнена".

Он опустил лодку в

море, и Рут осталась на корабле.

Мать Рут закричала : «Рут!

Садись в следующую

шлюпку!

» Спустя несколько минут Рут была в другой спасательной шлюпке.

Но более

1500 человек все еще были на корабле.

Тогда великий корабль разломился на две

половины.

Передняя половина опустилась ниже воды, и через две минуты другая

половина утонула.

Сотни людей были в воде, прося о помощи.

Но никто не мог им

помочь, потому что спасательные шлюпки были уже опасно переполнены (заполнены).

Примерно три часа спустя Рут увидела свет с другого корабля.

Когда корабль

добрался до них, Рут настолько замерзла, что не могла двигаться.

Мужчины

вытащили ее на корабль и дали горячий напиток.

Затем Рут пробежала по всему

кораблю, разыскивая свою мать и ее брата, и сестру.

Она смотрела, как прибыли

другие спасательные шлюпки.

Через несколько часов она их нашла.

Все трое были в

безопасности.

В итоге были спасены 705 человек.

Но многим не повезло так, как

Рут.

Более 1500 человек погибли в ледяной воде.

А Рут Беккер?

Она прожила

долгую жизнь.

Закончила школу, поступила в университет, стала учительницей,

родила троих детей и прожила до 90 лет.

1 What happened at the beginning of the flight?

2 Why were the passengers nervous and upset then?

3 What was the last news?

Was the news tragic?

4What were all the passengers afraid of?

5 How did the story end?

The plane had taken off from the air - field in London, and the journey to South Africa, to Johannesburg to be exact, had started.

It was just after the war, and it was not a jet, as is the case nowadays, but it was a big plane with four engines, and four propellers, of course.

When a few minutes later we were crossing the Channel, one of the engines went wrong, but the stewardess left and the passengers were quite safe.

However, when the plane reached the Mediterranean Sea, the second engine broke down, but the stewardess told us there was nothing to worry about because two engines were quite enough to keep us in the air.

As we got near to the shores of Africa, the rumour spread that only one propeller was working.

The stewardess kept her mouth shut, this time, but we came to the conclusion the plane must have developed engine trouble and so it had.

Presently we were flying over the jungle in Central Africa and my fellow travellers were terribly upset.

Women were holding their children tighter and tighter and men were drinking more and more heavily… There was also a person there who was saying a prayer in a loud voice.

I too was terribly frustrated, and as I looked down at the bush, I could not help thinking of cannibalism, death and other pleasant things.

At that moment, the loud - speaker was switched on, and the captain's voice was heard : "Ladies and gentlemen, I have tragic news for you".

The faces of all the passengers turned pale.

Some burst into tears, and the prayer stifled in the parson's mouth.

My heart sank into my boots.

The captain continued in a gloomy voice : "It is my sad duty to inform you that England has lost her last football match against Scotland!
