Ex. 21. Read the text and complete the sentences below using Type 3 Conditionals, as in the example.
The ‘Titanic’ was a British luxury passenger liner which sank during its maiden voyage from Southampton to New York in 79/2. On 14th April, the Titanic' hit an iceberg in the Atlantic Ocean. Distress signals were sent to the 'Californian', a ship 20 miles away, but their radio operator was off duty and the signals were not received. Some of the passengers got into lifeboats, but, although the ‘Titanic’ was luxurious, it did not have enough lifeboats for all the passengers on board. As a result, the loss of life was great. Many people died because the sea was very cold. Luckily, another ship, the ‘Carpathian’ rescued some of the passengers. As a result of this disaster, new rules were made to ensure that sea voyages would be safer in future. It is now believed that the Titanic' sank so quickly because it was too large.
If the ship had not hit an iceberg ...it wouldn't have sunk……………………
If the ‘Californiaris’ radio operator had been on duty, …….
