READ THE STORY ABOUT TITANIC AND ANSWER THE QUESTIONS
READING ACTIVITY
What was there in the Titanic?
Have you seen the movie “Titanic”? Have you ever wondered what was actually there on it? We investigated and found that there were many lifeboats but there were 2000 passengers when it sailed from Southampton, so definitely there weren’t enough boats for everybody. Of course there was an enormous difference between the travelling conditions among the classes of passengers. For example, in first and second class there was a varied library, here there were many tables where passengers could write letters to their families, or sit comfortably to read or write on their diaries. For men, there was a nice barbershop; there was also a dark room with all the materials to develop photos, because photography was a very new hobby.

There was a gymnasium and a swimming pool with salt water too. If passengers wanted to relax, they could go to the deck, where there were a lot of chairs to lie down and rest. On board, there were hundreds of men who liked to gamble and of course there were a lot of them playing cards or board games. Maybe some of them would go and smoke a cigar since there was also a smoking room on the ship. There was even a newspaper on board “The Atlantic Daily Bulletin”. All the entertainment was there only for first and second class passengers, the ones in third class had to invent it by themselves. There were songs and some dancing. There were a lot of pets travelling with their owners. There were nine dogs, four hens and roosters, 30 cockerels, one yellow canary and the ship's cat named Jenny. Five of the dogs stayed with their owners in their cabins. After the Titanic went down, only three dogs and a canary survived the sinking.
