What inference can be made from the text "R. M.S. Titanic"? Part A A lack of preparation and adequate safety measures caused chaos following the collision.

Larger lifeboats would have been able to save more people following the collision.

The wreck was located so far from other ships that rescuers could not arrive in time.

Most of the people who fell overboard died instantly.

Which evidence from the text best supports the answer to Part A?

"The boats were swung out—slowly, for the deckhands were late in reaching their stations; there had been no boat drill, and many of the crew did not know to what boats they were assigned."

"The foredeck is under water; the fo’c’sle head almost awash; the great stern is lifted high toward the bright stars; and still the band plays."

"The women hang back; they want no boat ride on an ice-strewn sea; the Titanic is unsinkable. The men encourage them, explain that this is just a precautionary measure..."

"One of the collapsible boats, which had floated off the top of the officers’ quarters when the Titanic sank, was an icy haven for thirty or forty men."
