(RMS Titanic) Select two sentences from paragraph 7 that best support the author's view that the Titanic failed to provide adequate safety for its passengers.
The Titanic was equipped to carry sixty-four lifeboats, but she only had twenty when she set sail.
Only twenty-eight people boarded the first lifeboat, when it could have held sixty-five people.
Animals were also on board the ship.
It was recorded that two dogs did survive the sinking.
Strangely enough, it was considered lucky to bring cats on board a vessel going to sea, but the Titanic carried none.
