We live on Earth. It's our home. But how much do you know about it? Let me tell you something about our Earth.
The Earth is like a huge ball. Like the other seven planets, the Earth is running around the sun. It's the third nearest one to the sun. It takes the Earth about 365 days to run around the sun. At the same time, the Earth is going around itself. If you are in space, you can see lots of white clouds over the surface of the Earth. Through the clouds, you can see the blue colour of the oceans, and the brown colour of the land. About 70% of the Earth is covered with water.

It was on April 10th, 1912, the Titanic sailed for New York. She was carrying more than 2,200 people.
At that time, she was the biggest and finest of all the ships, for she had sixteen compartments（密封仓）. When four of them were broken she would still be able to stay on the water.
Four days later, while the Titanic was sailing across the sea, the watcher suddenly saw a very large iceberg, 100 feet tall. After a few minutes there was a sudden sound from below. The noise was so low that no one knew what happened. But soon it was clear that the Titanic was sinking(沉没). The captain sent a SOS to any ships near them, but the nearest one was too far away to help in time. The Titanic was going down fast.
