Part II.

Read the text and do the following exercises:

My first sighting of the Titanic lasted less than two minutes, but the image of her huge hull lying on the ocean floor will remain in my memory forever. The search for the Titanic had dominated my life for 13 years, and now it was over. In my way I'm sorry we found her. She is no longer the graceful lady that sank in 1912 after hitting an iceberg. Her beauty has gone, destroyed by decades beneath the sea. She will never be raised, but the search for the Titanic, the most famous of ships, was the most exciting journey of my life.

Our first sighting of the ship took place from Alvin, a miniature submarine. As we began our two and a half hour descent to the ocean floor, we discovered our sonar wasn't working. Without that, we had to rely on our ship Atlantics, on the surface, to guide us to the Titanic's location. Then we discovered another problem. Salt water was entering the batteries which powered Alvin. Without them, we would have very little time at the bottom of the ocean, if any at all. To add to our problems, the tracking system from Atlantic wasn't working. The surface ship should have known where we were and where the Titanic was. Instead we were lost, with no way of knowing that we were and within yards of the ship. As more sea water was entering the batteries, we grew worried and decided to return to the surface. Then a voice suddenly came from Atlantis telling us that the Titanic was only 50 yards away. We slowly moved to the right until we were stopped by enormous piece of black steel rising from the bottom of the ocean. At last we reached our gold. The Titanic was only a few inches away. In that instant we became the first people to see the Titanic in her watery grave. After gazing for a few minutes in silent wonder, we were forced to return to the surface.

Most of the eleven dives that followed were more rewarding. They produced scenes which will also remain with me forever. We saw the head of a child's doll and a cup on top of one of the ship's steam boilers. On another dive, as we moved past the Titanic, the round windows seemed to me like rows of sightless eyes with great tears of rust.
