FOUR WHEELS GOOD

The growth of the car industry parallels the development of modern capitalism It began in
France and Germany, but took off in the United States. The There Henry Ford adapted the
moving production line from the Chicago meat industry to motor manufacturing, thus inventing
mass production. In the 1920s Alfred Sloan's management theories helped General Motors to
become the world's dominant car company. After the Second World War the car makers
focused on the styling of their products to encourage more frequent model changes From the
1970s there was criticism of the industry due to the inefficiency of most vehicles, which used
petrol wastefully. At the same time, trades unions became increasingly militant in defence of
their members' jobs Today the industry owns some of the most famous brands in the world.
However, many car makers are currently threatened by increased competition and saturated
markets.

THE PAST BELOW THE WAVES

More than three million shipwrecks are believed to lie on the seabed, the result of storms and
accidents during thousands of years of sea-borne trading. These wrecks offer marine
archeeologists valuable information about the culhure, technology and trade patterns of ancient
civilisations, but the vast majority has been too deep to research Scuba divers can only operate
down to 50 metres, which limits operations to wrecks near the coast, which have often been
damaged by storms or plant growth. A few deep sea siteps (such as the Titanic) have been
explored by manned submarines, but this kind of equipment has been too expensive for less
famous subjects However, this situation has been changed by the introduction of a new kind
of mini submarine the automatic underwater vehicle(AUV) This cheap, small craft is free
moving and does not need an expensive mother-ship to control it. Now a team of American
archacologists are planning to use an AUV to explore an area of sea north of Egypt which was
the approach to a major trading port 4,000 years ago.

TITANIC
Beginning with treasure hunter Brock Lovett (Bill Paxton) searching the Titanic wreck
for the fabled necklace named the Heart of the Ocean, the Titanic movie features actual footage
of the wreckage. After recovering a safe that was thought to belong to first class passenger
Caledon ‘Cal’ Hockley, played by Billy Zane, Lovett hopes to find the Heart of the Ocean
contained within. He finds nothing but soggy bank statements and a sketch of a naked woman
wearing the necklace, and Lovett believes that he has hit a dead end.

A woman by the name of Rose Calvert (Gloria Stuart) sees Lovett on the news and
contacts him. Lovett is uninterested in what she has to say at first, but becomes intrigued when
she tells him that she is the woman in the drawing. After being flown in to tell her story, we
learn that Rose Calvert was once Rose DeWitt Bukater and was a first class passenger on the
Titanic. She beings telling her experience on the doomed vessel.

The movie begins with drifter Jack Dawson (Leonardo DiCaprio) winning third class
tickets for the Titanic in a poker game. Him and his friend Fabrizio catch the ship just as it is
leaving. It also shows first class passenger Rose DeWitt Bukater (Kate Winslett), her mother
Ruth (Frances Fisher) and her fiance Cal Hockley. Rose is on the way to Philadelphia to marry
Hockley, an arrangement made by her mother to protect her status of wealth. Unhappy with this
decision, Rose attempts to commit suicide by throwing herself from the Titanic.

She is confronted by Dawson who convinces her to come up from the railing. Rose
invites Jack to dinner as a thanks, and after Jack spirits her away to a third class evening of
dancing. Rose decides to decide her own future and asks Jack, who is an acclaimed artist to
draw her nude wearing only the Heart of the Ocean.

The two then find their way to the cargo hold and find a rich man’s car waiting for them.
They proceed to make love in the back seat before the ship hits an iceberg.

As people begin boarding lifeboats, Jack is arrested and locked in the master at arms’
office. Instead of boarding a lifeboat, Rose goes back to help Jack and the two must fight for
survival. Jack and Rose’s fiancé Cal finally convince her to board a lifeboat, and Cal assures
her that he has made arrangements to get both men off of the boat safely.

Cal double cross Jack and Rose decides to go back for him yet again despite her being
urged to stay on the lifeboat. Rose finds Jack and Cal chases them into the flooded first-class
dining room with a pistol. Once they escape Cal, he returns to the deck and boards a lifeboat
after pretending to look after an abandoned child.

Rose and Jack go down with the ship and Jack helps her onto a door that can support
the weight of one person. While Jack is in the freezing water, they exchange loving words, and
Jack dies of hypothermia. Once aboard the Carpathia, Rose gives her name as Rose Dawson.
She sees Cal one more time frantically looking for her but hides her face in a blanket just as he
looks in her direction. Rose then proceeds to do everything that her and Jack promised to do
together, and lives her life.

Back on Lovett’s ship, Rose walks to the side, produces the Heart of the Ocean and
tosses it overboard. In the last scene, Rose is met by Jack on the grand staircase of the Titanic,
they kiss and are applauded by those who were lost in the disaster. It isn’t known whether or
not she is dreaming or if she dies (Jack told her she would die in her bed as an old woman), and
James Cameron leaves this up to the viewer to decide.

Summarize

Two people fall in love on a boat. It sinks and she did not love him enough to share her plank
of wood.
