Nobody Had Believed It Was Possible

In 1912, the Titanic (hit) an iceberg on its first trip across the Atlantic, and it (sink) four hours later. At that time, the Titanic (be) the largest ship that ever (travel) on the sea. It was carrying 2207 people, but it had taken on enough lifeboats for only 1178

66

people. When the passengers (try) to leave the ship, only 651 of them were able to get into lifeboats.

The Carpathia (be) 58 miles away when the Titanic (call) on its radio for help. It (arrive) two hours after the great ship (go) down, and it (save) 705 people. Some of the survivors (be) in the icy water for hours when they were saved. Most of the passengers hadn't lived long; 1502 people (lose) their lives.

Through the whole tragedy, the Californian (be) only ten miles away. Its officers were close enough to see the Titanic, but they (negative, understand) the situation. They never received the Titanic's call for help, and they didn't come to the rescue until too late.

Why (be) there such a great loss of life? Why (be) there so few survivors? Why the Californian (negative, come) to help?

First of all, nobody (prepare) for such a tragedy. Nobody (believe) that the Titanic could sink. The steamship company (think) that its ship would be completely safe in all situations. They (follow) an old rule for the number of lifeboats, so they (supply) lifeboats for only half the people. The passengers had not yet received their lifeboat numbers, nor had they practised lifeboat drill before the accident. Many of them (negative, dress) even warmly, for the ship had hit the iceberg late at night, and they (negative, believe) they (be) in danger.

The ship already (receive) six ice warnings on its radio when it struck the iceberg. Nevertheless, it (negative change) its direction or its speed. It (be) impossible to change direction quickly enough when the iceberg came in sight. When the Titanic (hit) the iceberg, the radio officer on the Californian just (go) to bed. He (try) to warn the officers on the Titanic about the ice before he'd gone to bed, but the officers hadn't listened.

After this accident, ocean travel changed. Now there (be) always enough lifeboats for everybody. Ships (negative, go) so far north in winter, and they watch carefully for ice. Radio officers (work) 24 hours a day. A tragedy like the sinking of the Titanic should never happen again.

Lead-in

1. Read the information to get to know what Kyivites think about Kyiv and get ready to present your own opinion. The questions below may be helpful.

A.Kyiv is a city where you can be truly alone, where you can be creative, where you can be a philosopher and a wanderer.

C.I regard Kyiv as a phenomenon of a planetary importance --- when in Kyiv, I feel as though I were in the centre of the world. Kyiv is a symbol of Ukraine in which there is a harmony between the mind and the spirit.

1.What were your first impressions of this city?

2.What is your favourite place in Kyiv? Why?

3.What places would you advise a foreigner to visit in Kyiv?

2. Read the text below and decide on the author’s attitude to Kyiv.

Welcome to Kyiv

Kyiv, ancient and yet ever young, is beautiful in all seasons of the year. In summer, when its streets and parks stretching alongside the sloppy banks of the Dniepro are buried in luxuriant verdure, Kyiv leaves an unforgettable impression. It is a city within a park. The clear days of golden autumn here are content with subtle lyricism, when the yellow leaves flooded by sunlight flat gently down to the ground. The city is also charming in its fluffy winter attire – which seems to give anemphasis to the slenderness of its majestic skyline.

But in spring, this season of grand awakening, Kyiv is incomparable. The city’s attraction for everybody is undoubtedly the enchanting scene of blossoming chestnut trees whose delicate “candles” seem to be intermingling colours with the tiles of white stone buildings. On such days you can spend hours taking in the fascinating beauty of Khreshchatik Street, the wide panorama of Rusanivka, the buildings of which, if seen from the heights of the Dniepro slopes, look like ocean liners at dock, numerous monumental structures in Pechersk and the dreamy reverie of the quiet streets in Lukyanivka. The hemispherical contours of the ancient cupolas and tall unique structures – the new TV tower, broad silhouettes of modern buildings made of concrete, glass and aluminium – have organically blended with the city ensemble.

Until recently, Kyiv was almost entirely situated on the right bank of the Slavutych (ancient name of the Dnipro). But in postwar years the city has quickly spread along the left bank. New residential districts sprung up on former wastelands and sand heaps. A speedy line of blue subway trains connected the farthest districts of the city. Year in and year out the city is growing wider and higher.
