     At the age of sixty-seven, Shirley Yeats decided to take a trip.Everything was fine until one day the smoke
was coming out of another room on the ship. She phoned the captain (船长) from her room at once and told
him about the fire. Then she went out to see what she could do to help. Later on, she found that the fire
spread (蔓延) very quickly. The captain decided to get all the passengers (乘客) out as quickly as
possible when he saw that.       
     Many of the other passengers were very afraid of that, but Shirley didn't seem scared at all. To many
people's surprise, she didn't go to the lifeboats but help the other passengers instead.
     At last, all one thousand passengers were in the lifeboats and nobody died in the fire. Shirley was one of
the last people to leave. Later she told others, "I was very scared, but I always knew what I had to do. I think
all my years as a teacher helped—all the time telling people what to do and how to do it."
