Researchers believed that First officer William Murdoch could’ve prevented the Titanic from sinking if he had acted early before the ship struck an iceberg.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Titanic was a liner (cruise) on board with 2,223 people from Southampton to New York. That hit on an iceberg while traveling in the sea and sunk in the North Atlantic Ocean. William Murdoch was the First Officer of the ship.
When the officer-in-charge warned him about the iceberg that has been spotted in the ship's path. And William waited for 30 seconds before changing the ship's direction.
Researchers had found that the iceberg was sighted at the distance of 1500 ft from the ship from the investigation of evidence. And the collision happened after 7 seconds of William's order to change the course.
If he didn't hesitate for that 30 seconds to give order then the ship could have saved as well as the people.

“How did Faulkner pull it off?” is a question many a fledgling writer has asked themselves while struggling through a period of apprenticeship like that novelist John Barth describes in his 1999 talk "My Faulkner." Barth “reorchestrated” his literary heroes, he says, “in search of my writerly self... downloading my innumerable predecessors as only an insatiable green apprentice can.” Surely a great many writers can relate when Barth says, “it was Faulkner at his most involuted and incantatory who most enchanted me.” For many a writer, the Faulknerian sentence is an irresistible labyrinth. His syntax has a way of weaving itself into the unconscious, emerging as fair to middling imitation.
While studying at Johns Hopkins University, Barth found himself writing about his native Eastern Shore Maryland in a pastiche style of “middle Faulkner and late Joyce.” He may have won some praise from a visiting young William Styron, “but the finished opus didn’t fly—for one thing, because Faulkner intimately knew his Snopses and Compsons and Sartorises, as I did not know my made-up denizens of the Maryland marsh.” The advice to write only what you know may not be worth much as a universal commandment. But studying the way that Faulkner wrote when he turned to the subjects he knew best provides an object lesson on how powerful a literary resource intimacy can be

- meaning of the word
- context (example of a sentence in which that particular word is used)
- picture that will remind you of the word meaning (if you are a visual learner)
