Story of the Titanic Goodreads
DK Children 2012 - 2
The true story of the world’s most famous ship is retold in this beautiful book with stunning visuals and a gripping narrative.<br /><br />One fateful night in 1912 the so-called Ship of Dreams turned into a nightmare in the Atlantic Ocean after hitting an iceberg and sinking on its maiden voyage.

<br /><br />The tragedy of the Titanic is shown in dramatic original illustrations by award-winning artist Steve Noon. This luxurious liner still has the power to capture public imagination more than any other vessel in history and more than a century later. From being built and setting sail to sinking fast and saving lives, the Titanic is explored and explained in fascinating detail with intricate cutaway scenes and cross-sections. 

<br /><br />Meet the captain, crew, and passengers from all walks of life who lost their lives or survived the sinking. Discover exactly what happened on the disastrous voyage, the reasons why Titanic sank, and what lessons were learned for the future. Watch the drama unfold as ordinary people became unsung heroes and the supposedly unsinkable ship became an underwater wreck.

<br /><br />Whether you’re a history buff or simply seeking help for a school project, this is the ultimate tribute to Titanic.

购于上海书展,DK 出品;收获不是很大,印象深刻的也就只有一些了:煤工和音乐家一直工作到最后,跟船一起沉了;遇难者的记录不是很清晰,Caption Smith 的目击记录就有好几个;美国为此成立了 International Ice Patrol,到今天还在运作。

2020-05-20~2020-05-30,第一阶段,先往 Anki 加了 826 卡片;相对于英语在用系列优点太多了,没有 old-fashioned 词,全彩印刷,会区分 ame/bre;更可贵的是还提供了大量有用且地道的 phrase;单词以主题划分,可以以优先级安排想背的单词,就目前来说并不绝对普遍的的琐碎物品单词用处很小,有些单词必背,比如 restroom,你总不能在内急时还要先翻单词书吧;可惜动词不够全,还有很多小说高频动词并没有列出来;也有些错误,比如看电影并不是 watch a movie 而是 see a movie,除非是在家用屏幕上看。
