めざせ 1 級! 英語上級者への道 ~Listen and Speak Ⅱ~ 第 7 回 モールス信号 Script ■Dialogue for Introduction E: Hello, Tets. Thanks for posting so many photos of your wonderful journey to Europe on Facebook. I felt as if I were traveling with you on the continent. T: Yes, with social networks we now have almost instant communication. That’s a far cry from the days of snail mail. E: Indeed it is. But you know, Tets, there were some important interim communication technologies along the way. For example, do you know the origin of the acronym “SOS”? T: Ah! Dot dot dot /dash dash dash/ dot dot dot! That is one of the most famous acronyms represented by the telegraph code system developed by Samuel Morse in 1836. That system was also implemented later in radio broadcasting. “Save Oh Save” or perhaps “Save Our Souls”…there is some debate as to the original meaning! There was, however, Edward, an earlier version of this call for distress! Did you know that, my friend? E: Indeed I do! The original code was CQD! It may have meant “Come quickly: Distress!” But the dots and dashes used to indicate it were too long and… T: Stop! We will have to send a real distress call if we spill the beans about our lesson too soon! Let’s give our listeners a chance to experience this article for themselves. E: A fine idea! Let’s signal the start of this month’s study! T&E: Pip-pip-pip…pip-pip. ■Listen to the passage and answer the questions that follow. -

StarKnight Productions. [email protected] SILENT UNIVERSE: MISSION 256 2. About the Silent Universe … The Silent Universe purposely breaks many of the molds of popular SciFi series, like Star Trek, turning the concept of a utopian future on it's ear. In the world of the Silent Universe , war and apathy have continued far into the future, leaving humanity shattered and still fighting against itself, even in space. In this dystopian vision, the modern specters of genocide, racism, xenophobia and chaos still exist. Amidst such a dim world, there are still heroes and people who believe that humanity can aspire to something better, but it is a bitter and difficult battle for those who fight for good ideals .

Morse Code and the Information Age Morse Code, Invented by Samuel F. B. Morse in the 1830S, Is a Method of Transmitting Textual
Morse Code and the Information Age Morse code, invented by Samuel F. B. Morse in the 1830s, is a method of transmitting textual information as a series of on-off tones, lights, or clicks that can be directly understood by a skilled listener or observer without special equipment. The International Morse Code encodes the Roman alphabet, the Arabic numerals and a small set of punctuation and procedural signals. The original telegraph system had an apparatus on the receiving end that spat out a string of paper with indentations on it. Short indentations were called “dots” or “dits,” and the longer ones “dashes” or “dahs.” Because many non-English natural languages use more than the 26 Roman letters, extensions to the Morse alphabet exist for those languages. Morse code has been in use for more than 160 years—longer than any other electrical coding system. What is called Morse code today is actually somewhat different from what was originally developed. The Modern International Morse code, or continental code, was created by Friedrich Clemens Gerke in 1848 and initially used for telegraphy between Hamburg and Cuxhaven in Germany. Gerke changed nearly half of the alphabet and all of the numerals resulting substantially in the modern form of the code. After some minor changes, International Morse Code was standardized at the International Telegraphy Congress in 1865 in Paris, and was later made the standard by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU). Samuel Morse's original code specification, largely limited to use in the United States and Canada, became known as American Morse code or railroad code. -

“R.M.S. Titanic” Hanson W
“R.M.S. Titanic” Hanson W. Baldwin I The White Star liner Titanic, largest ship the world had ever known, sailed from Southampton on her maiden voyage to New York on April 10, 1912. The paint on her strakes was fair and bright; she was fresh from Harland and Wolff’s Belfast yards, strong in the strength of her forty-six thousand tons of steel, bent, hammered, shaped, and riveted through the three years of her slow birth. There was little fuss and fanfare at her sailing; her sister ship, the Olympic—slightly smaller than the Titanic— had been in service for some months and to her had gone the thunder of the cheers. But the Titanic needed no whistling steamers or shouting crowds to call attention to her superlative qualities. Her bulk dwarfed the ships near her as longshoremen singled up her mooring lines and cast off the turns of heavy rope from the dock bollards. She was not only the largest ship afloat, but was believed to be the safest. Carlisle, her builder, had given her double bottoms and had divided her hull into sixteen watertight compartments, which made her, men thought, unsinkable. She had been built to be and had been described as a gigantic lifeboat. Her designers’ dreams of a triple-screw giant, a luxurious, floating hotel, which could speed to New York at twenty-three knots, had been carefully translated from blueprints and mold loft lines at the Belfast yards into a living reality. The Titanic’s sailing from Southampton, though quiet, was not wholly uneventful.
