The RMS Titanic slipped out of the harbor in Southampton,England, on April 10, 1912.It was the first voyage of this huge luxury liner said to be the largest and safest vessel on the seas.(1) ___________________________________________.Another ship was pulled from its anchoring and came dangerously close to hitting the Titanic.
You might say this was an indication of events to come.Two of the ship’s builders were on board to make sure that no problems were found.(2) _______________________________________,for it had been constructed to withstand what they believed would be the worst possible disaster the ship would face.Even if four of its watertight compartments were compromised,it would stay afloat as usual.The builders were so sure of its quality that they were not prepared for the disaster the ship would encounter.
On Sunday, April 14, 1912,the Titanic was sailing peacefully through the northern Atlantic Ocean.At two different times during the day,radio messages were sent to the Titanic warning of large icebergs floating directly in the path of the large ship.For some unknown reason,neither of these messages reached the captain.At 11∶40 p.m., two lookouts spotted a large iceberg straight ahead.The first officer was in charge.(3) __________________________________________________.Engineers now believe that if the ship had been allowed to hit the iceberg head on,some damage would have been done,but nothing fatal. As it was,the ship hit the iceberg on its side and it sank eventually.
