TEST

I. Read and translate the text. Answer the questions.

There are very dangerous reefs near the northern coast of New Zealand. In the summer of 1871, a ship called the “Brindle” was moving slowly through a fog near the reefs. Some sailors on the ship suddenly saw a tremendous white dolphin in the water.

It swam towards them and then turned and swam in front of the ship. The dolphin seemed to lead the ship, and it swam on and on until the ship had passed the dangerous reefs. Then it swam away, and the ship, led by the dolphin into open water, continued on its way.

From that time the white dolphin met every ship that came to the reefs. Sailors in every port knew about the dolphin; thanks to its “work” not one ship was lost on the reefs. It continued to serve as a ships’ pilot until 1912. Of course, no one could be sure that it was the same dolphin, and no one has ever discovered what made the white dolphin (or dolphins) pilot ships past the reefs for forty years.
