（单词翻译）

 The experiment proves that a rogue1 wave could have theoretically sunk the S.S.Poet. But Graber has spent 20 years studying this oceanic phenomenon. He knows there is no evidence to suggest that rouge2 waves occur more often in the Triangle than any other ocean in the world.

 
“There is nothing special about the Bermuda Triangle with respect to rouge waves, the peculiarity3 of the Bermuda Triangle is more folklore4 rather than reality.”
 
Greg and Lora Little believed they’ve discovered a DC3 airliner5 that disappeared in 1948. In Lincolnshire England, Royal Air Force’s technicians try to pinpoint6 the exact type of the aircraft that’s been found. Keith Brenchley and Andy Bell take a closer look at the Littles’ findings.
 
“First, inklings. It did show a large aeroplane.”
 
One clue--a corroded7 hydraulic8 jet system.
 
“It's a really large, flat jet thread, for an aeroplane. So, this could be in the DC3 solar sides.
 
Initial check suggests that it could be the missing 1948 airliner.
 
“Till this matches there. Yeah, it's been lay up there.” 
 
In fact the RAF team owns a military version of a DC-3 known as a C-47. If the Littles’ parts match those on this nearly 70-year-old aircraft, then the sunken wreckage9 could be either a C-47 or a DC-3.
 
“Well, it's certainly similar to that trend.”
 
A rusty10 wire recovered from the wreckage seems to match a part below the aircraft’s cockpit. 
 
All right. So that pin drops into that hole.
 
But they need confirmation11. A series of numbers has found on the logger system.
 
“The number is 2005322. Break linkage12 and talk tube”.
 
“Should be up here somewhere.”
 
A small part finally gives them the answer they have been searching for.
 
“And there is a part number on one of the levers which is 2005322-2. It definitely it.”
 
It’s a match. The plane on the floor of the Bermuda Triangle is either a civilian13 DC-3 or its military cousin.
