Final answer:

The best inference from the text "R.M.S. Titanic", based on common knowledge of the event, would be that crew communication issues led to inadequate passenger information about the collision.option c is correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

An inference that can be made from the text "R.M.S. Titanic" doesn't directly relate to the information provided in the references about the R.M.S. Lusitania. However, if we evaluate the choices based on general knowledge of the Titanic disaster, option C could be a plausible inference as it is well-documented that the crew faced communication issues during the disaster, and not all passengers were informed in time or properly about the collision.

Regarding information on the sinking of the RMS Lusitania, Germany sank the ship because it was carrying war materials, and this act was seen by many, especially in the United States, as an act of unprovoked aggression.

The sinking shifted international sentiment and affected American neutrality in World War I. The details provided in the references illustrate that the Lusitania was a British liner, sunk by a German U-boat in 1915, and the loss of American lives aboard the ship played a role in swaying public opinion.
