[00:03.44]Unit 7 The Sea Lesson 4 Sea Stories
[00:08.90]About three years ago,
[00:10.92]something terrible happened to me.
[00:13.84]Those six hours of terror
[00:15.77]have broken my body and soul.
[00:18.47]You think I am a very old man--but I am not.
[00:23.12]It took less than a single day
[00:24.83]to change my hair from black to white.
[00:28.78]One day, my two brothers
[00:31.10]and I were coming back from the islands,
[00:34.07]our boat full of fish.
[00:36.06]All at once, the sky was covered
[00:38.58]with dark clouds and in less than a minute
[00:42.02]we were in a terrible storm.
[00:44.65]An enormous wave covered our boat
[00:48.16]and my younger brother fell into the sea.
[00:50.85]Our boat survived,and I was trying to recover
[00:54.77]when my elder brother put his mouth close
[00:56.81]to my ear,
[00:58.44]and screamed out the terrifying word
[01:01.13]"Whirlpool!"
[01:03.49]With the wind and waves we were going
[01:06.06]in the direction of the whirlpool,
[01:08.38]and nothing could save us!
[01:11.74]It may seem strange,but at that moment,
[01:15.09]when we were on the edge of the whirlpool,
[01:17.75]I felt calmer than
[01:19.21]when we were moving towards it.
[01:21.59]We went round and round,
[01:23.83]nearer and nearer to ther horrible edge
[01:26.74]of the whirlpool.
[01:28.54]Suddenly, we went over ther edge.
[01:31.36]I thought my life was over.
[01:33.82]But moment after moment passed,
[01:36.11]and I was still safe.
[01:37.53]
