What is the topic sentence of this story My most vivid memory from childhood is traveling to the top of the Zugspitze mountain i

n Germany. The day we went up the Zugspitze is the day that I learned that there can be a surprising difference in temperature between the ground and the top of a mountain. It was warm on the ground that day, but it got colder and colder the higher up the mountain that we went. On the ground everything was green, but the mountaintop was covered with snow. When it was time to go back down the mountain we rode in a cable car. I remember thinking at the time that it was as though we had travelled down from winter back into spring.

Some researchers believe that First officer William Murdoch could’ve prevented the Titanic from sinking
nirvana33 [79]

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.
