Voice 1: One hundred and fifty years ago the Sultan leader of Istanbul, Turkey had an idea. Istanbul is a city divided by water. One side is on the Asian continent. And the other side is on the European continent. The water of the Bosphorus Straights flows between the two sides. The Sultan wanted to connect the two sides with an underwater tunnel. But, he never completed the project.
聲音1：150年前，土耳其伊斯坦布爾蘇丹想出了個主意。伊斯坦布爾這座城市被水域隔開。一邊屬于亞洲大陸。另一邊屬于歐洲大陸。博斯普魯斯海峽的水在兩邊之間流動。蘇丹希望用地下隧道將兩邊連接起來。但是，他未能完成這項工程。
Voice 2: Today, one hundred and fifty years later, a group of people want to complete the tunnel the Sultan started. They have named this project the Marmaray project. They believe that an underwater tunnel will solve many problems for the city of Istanbul. It is a busy city. There is a lot of traffic. And there are already three bridges that cross the Bosphorus Straights. The engineers want to use the tunnel for a train. The train would help traffic flow better. People can take the train between the two parts of the city instead of using their cars.
聲音2：在150年后的今天，一群人希望完成蘇丹啟動的這個隧道。他們將這項工程命名為馬爾馬雷計劃。他們相信地下隧道將解決伊斯坦布爾市的許多問題。伊斯坦布爾是一座繁忙的城市。交通流量很大。目前已經有三座橫跨博斯普魯斯海峽的橋梁。工程師想讓列車從地下隧道通過。列車能幫助緩解交通流量。人們可以乘坐列車在城市兩邊活動，不用開車。
