(4) After you read the text, you are expected to study your roles (according to the list we arranged in the class). You need to defeat your position because others will criticize your point of view, mistakes, and decisions. Similarly, you will also need to criticize the attitude of the others by using "Third Conditional". 

For instance, you can criticize the captain of Titanic by saying "You should not have set out on freezing weather. It was quite risky."
