环球慢速英语 埃克森公司瓦尔德斯号油轮原油泄漏事故(3)

（单词翻译）

Voice 1: Captain Hazelwood turned the ship to travel a new path. The ship passed by the ice. Before he went to sleep, the captain told a crew¹ member to turn the ship back in the correct path. But the crew member turned the ship too quickly. This was not where Captain Hazelwood wanted to go. They were travelling towards Bligh Reef², a group of rocks under the water.

声音1：船长黑兹尔伍德将油轮转向新的路线继续行驶。这艘油轮与浮冰擦身而过。在睡觉之前，船长让船员将船转回正确的航线上。但是船员转向的速度太快了。那并不是船长黑兹尔伍德想走的路线。他们开始向布莱礁行驶，布莱礁是水下的岩石群。

Voice 2: At four minutes past twelve' o-clock on March 24 the ship's metal body hit Bligh Reef. The rocks of the reef broke open the side of the ship. The oil inside the ship began to flow out into the ocean. The thick black oil floated on the surface of the water.

声音2：3月24日12点04分，油轮的金属体撞上了布莱礁。礁石撞破了船身。船里的石油开始流向大海。粘稠的黑油在海水表面上漂浮。
