Question 3:Read the reading passage and then choose the best answer a, b, c or d.

http://ductam_tp.violet.vn/ In an effort to produce the largest, fastest, and most luxurious ship afloat, the British built the S.S Titanic. It was so superior to anything else on the seas that it was dubbed unsinkable. So sure of this were the owners that they provided only twenty lifeboats and rafts, less than one half the number needed for 2.227 passengers on board. Many passengers were abroad the night it rammed an iceberg, only two days at sea and more than halfway between England and its New York destination. Because the luxury liner was travelling so fast, it was impossible to avoid the ghostly looking iceberg. Panic increased the number of casualties as people jumped into the icy water or fought to be among the few to broad the lifeboats. Four hours after the mishap, another ship, the Carpathina, rescured the 705 survivors. The infamous S.S Titanic had enjoyed only two days of sailing glory on its maiden voyage in 1912 before plunging into 12,000 feet of water near the coast of Newfoundland,where it lies today. 1, All the following are true Except a-only a third of those aboard penshed. b-the Carpathia rescued the survivors c-the S.S Titanic sank near Newfoundland. d- the S.S Titanic was the fastest ship afloat in 1912. 2, All of the following contributed to the large death toll Except a-panic b-fire c-speed d-the Carpathia 3,How many days was the S.S Titanic at sea before sinking? a-2 b-4 c-6 d-12 4, In line 10, the word maiden is closest in meaning to a-inaugural b-most elegant c-longest d-final 5, The word dubbed in line 2 is closest in meaning to a-called b-initiated c-christened d-listed 6, What is the main idea of this passage? a- The S.S Titanic proved itself the most seaworthy vessel in 1912. b-Attempts to rescue the S.S Titanics survivors were not successful. c-Overconfidence by builders and owners was greatly responsible for the sinking of the vessel. d-A fire and panic were the only causes for the sinking of the ship.
