On April 23, 1912, the luxury steamship Titanic hit an iceberg, and the “unsinkable” ship     1     (sink) in the Atlantic Ocean. The world was     2     great shock.

Now, people can learn about their history through a documentary called The Six: The Untold Story of RMS Titanic’s Chinese Passengers, which     3    (release)on April 16, 2021.

“The historical materials keep records of who they are, where they come from, the families of the survivors except the six” Arthur Jones,     4     documentary’s director, told China Newsweek magazine. It was in 2015     5     Jones heard the six people’s story from his friend Steven Schwankert for the first time. They then decided to cooperate to reveal the buried history. Among the limited records, they came upon the Titanic’s passenger list,     6     had eight Chinese names on it.     7     (collect) more information, the production team spent five years     8     (travel) 20 cities in different countries as well as reading 100 documented works.

Rumor (谣言) has it that these Chinese survivors dressed as women to fight for     9     (spot) on lifeboats, but they found it untrue. Jones hopes the movie will reach a wide     10     (globe) audience, and perhaps even more people who secretly suspect they have a connection with the Titanic story.
