Titanic was a travelling ship. It crashed against the iceberg(冰山). Soon, it fell down into the sea with all of people. Everyone was frightened and wanted someone to help them. But it was difficult to search for everyone, they were tiny. People managed to save themselves. So did Jack and Rose. They continued swimming. Luckily, they found a board, but unluckily the board wasn’t big enough. So Jack lifted Rose onto the board without thinking. He tied Rose to the board. He was tired out, he couldn’t move any more. At last, he died.
