    “The sounds of people drowning are something that I cannot describe to you and neither can anyone else. It’s the most dreadful sound and there is a terrible silence that follows it.” Eva Hart quoted experiencing a dreadful memory as a seven year old Titanic survivor. The legendary RMS Titanic clearly was a devastating, fruitless project to the decadent ocean liner industry White Star Liner of the 20th century. The inadequate safety feature disgusted Thomas Andrew, and the crew who structured the Titanic. After the legendary sink of the Titanic, the loss of the decadent and capital was massive waste in investments. However the loss of so much prominent citizens was a huge loss.
    The loss of so many prominent citizens was preposterous definitely not justifiable to the world.”Ever man for itself” exclaimed Captain Edward John Smith at 2:30 pm. Losing one of the most prominent captains in the White Star Lines industry caused pain to one of the most luxurious ocean liners that ever sailed the oceans. Luxurious men were nothing but the opposite of trivial to the Titanic crew that sailed the seas during 1912. However when John James Aster died it was quite palpable that money in the Titanic went down massively considering John James Aster was the most wealthiest passenger in board. Furthermore Thomas Andrews were one of the most well known ship builders around that time in the 1900 century. Sadly being the ship builder she must have felt a lot of shame once he died during the ice berg attack.

    “Professionals built the Titanic amateur ark” quoted Frank Deeper. Money and decadent meant the world to the Titanic sadly when the ship crashed into the iceberg the hips investments were considered lost as a rich legend, and so the luxury on the ship. Swimming pools with heated ocean water costed at least more than a million dollars. On the other hand the ships foundation, like building the ship, buying the material, and putting all the luxury into the Titanic to make the ship the most luxurious ocean liner in the world costed about $7.5 million dollars, which was about $400 million today. Additionally the dinner was full of wealth, but just the cutlery must have costed a fortune considering the first class serving plates were golden rims and second class was delicate china.
    After the legendary Titanic sink, people questioned and thought the inadequate safety features caused the Titanic to sink. I feel that the little fracture of the hull steel contributed to the Titanic disaster. However the high sculpture content increases the brittleness of steel by disrupting the grain structure. On the other hand, people always pounder about the fact that the Titanic sink was caused by the trivial thought that the Titanic did not need so much life boats, and only then would be just enough because the Titanic was known for being “unsinkable”. Sadly also the Titanic was low on rivets, which could also be a possible theory on what lead to the Titanic sink.
    The RMS Titanic was a great disappointment, and was a very fruitless project. The safety features that caused the Titanic to sink were very preposterous, and the deaths of so many prominent citizens were not justifiable. However the decadent and capital loss on the Titanic was a big waste of investments after the RMS Titanic sunk. On the other hand, even though the Titanic was a huge disappointment to the White Star Line ocean liner industry, the Titanic will always be a beautiful, symbolic legend.

  24. Mr. Buxton said to put the thesis at the top of your writing.

    ReplyDelete
  25. And you need to color code your essay

  26. sentence fluency needs a lot of work Riya

    You are using the word decadant incorrectly. - you are alos using it too often ... 'financial loss' seems better

    -too long for one sentence-
    Money and decadent meant the world to the Titanic sadly when the ship crashed into the iceberg the hips investments were considered lost as a rich legend, and so the luxury on the ship. Swimming pools with heated ocean water costed at least more than a million dollars.

  33. Riya- Here's how you can fix it:
    Money and decadent meant the world to the Titanic. Sadly, when the ship crashed into the iceberg, the hips investments were considered lost as a rich legend and the luxury on the ship. Swimming pools with heated ocean water cost at least more than a million dollars.
