A block hold loading condition refers to the stowage of cargo in a block of two or more adjoining cargo hold s with the cargo hold s adjacent to the block of loaded cargo hold s empty. In many cases, block gold loading is adopted when the ship is partly loaded. Part loaded and block hold loading conditions are not usually described in the ship?s loading manual unless they are specially requested to be considered in the design of the ship. When adopting a part loaded condition, to avoid over-stressing of the hull structure, careful consideration needs to be given to the amount of cargo carried in each cargo hold and the anticipated sailing draft. When a ship is partly loaded, the cargo transported is less than the full cargo carrying capacity of the ship. Hence, the sailing draft of the ship is likely to be less
41
than its maximum design draft.
The weight of cargo in each hold must be adequately supported by the buoyancy upthrust on the bottom shell to counteract the downward force exerted by the cargo in the hold. Therefore, when a ship is partly loaded with a reduced draft, it may be necessary to reduce the amount of cargo carried in any hold.
To enable cargoes to be carried in blocks, the cross deck and double bottom structure needs to be specially designed and reinforced.
83. The adoption of part loaded condition or block hold loading condition is to _____. A. avoid over-stressing of the hull structure
B. achieve less than the full cargo carrying capacity or have a smaller draft of the vessel
C. reduce the amount of cargo carried in any hold
D. none of the above
84. When part loaded condition or block hold loading condition is adopted, careful consideration should be given to the amount of cargo carried in each cargo hold because____.
A. the cargo gravity force is acting downward in the hold B. the buoyancy upthrust is acting on the bottom shell C. over-stress of the hull structure is not likely to occur D. they are not usually described in the ship?s loading manual 85. It can be inferred that block hold loading will ____.
A. leave some hold s to be empty B. make the vessel have a larger draft than the maximum draft
C. carry more cargo than at full load D, reduce, in general , the stresses and shears in
42
structure of the ship
86. ____ is not the author?s opinion.
A. to specially design and reinforce the cross deck and double bottom structure is unnecessary when cargoes are to be carried in blocks B. block loading results in higher stresses in the structure
C. the weight of cargo that can be carried in the block of the cargo hold s needs to be specially considered
D. in general, the cargo load that can be carried in blocks is much less than the sum of the full cargo capacity of the individual hold s at the maximum draft condition 第二组：
The harbourmaster has responsibility for the movement of ships on the waters of the port. He closely involved with any emergencies which occur in his jurisdiction, and normally takes charge such incidents. Contingency planning for such emergencies, whether it is the aftermath of a collision, grounding, fire or a pollution incident, is an important part of his job as the people in the port?s marine department rehearse with the local emergency services.
They responsibility in the harbourmaster?s department is the security of the port, to prevent criminal acts or terrorism taking place. The harbourmaster is required to draft security plans and ensure that the port is physically secure, with proper gates, control of people and vehicles entering, and surveillance of craft on the port waters. Smaller ports may well see the harbour master doubling up in a commercial role, or undertaking the pilotage of bigger ships if there is no separate pilot. The “customers” of a port may be big merchant ships, but may also be fishing and
43
leisure craft and tourist boats and the harbourmaster will have to adjust his policies for the customer base, and reconcile their various needs. 87.Which of the following statement is not correct?
A. harbourmasters are mainly responsible for the safety of ships and ports
B. harbourmasters in large ports play definitely more functions than those working in small ports
C. the marine department of the port co-operates with local emergency services for emergency drills
D. the harbourmaster co-works with the marine department of the port and the local emergency services for emergency drills 88. what would be best suitable title for this passage?
A. the role of the harbourmasters B. the qualification of the harbourmasters
C. the challenges to the harbourmasters D. redefinition for marine harbourmasters
89. According to the passage, to fulfill the functions assigned to him, the harbourmaster would be most appropriately a _____. A. self-employee C. part time employee
B. commercial company staff D. governmental organization staff
90. What would be the most appropriate background for the job of harbourmaster according tothe passage?
A. a person with competency of Engineering officer B. a person with competency of Security officer
44
C. a person with competency of shipmaster D. a person with competency of Pilot 第三组：
M.V. “GLORIA” Shanghai, December 2002 The Harbour Master, Shanghai. Dear sir,
Accident Abreast No.15 Mooring Buoy
“GLORIA” left Kao Yang-Lu Wharf at 0001, 3rd December Capt. Chang was pilot on board. She proceeded to Upper Garden Bend Reach and swung. At 0035 she proceeded down stream with ebb tide estimated at 1/2 to 1 knot.
At 0048 ship was stopped to clear long tow of lighters. At 0053 she resumed her passage down stream when clear of tow. At 0105 dead slow ahead. A small light was sighted ahead, ship sounded warning long blasts on whistle at short intervals. At 0117 stopped engines. At 0119 half speed astern port engine, full speed astern starboard, to avoid collision with junk close ahead, stopped at 0121. at 0122 slow ahead, 0123 stopped engines. A small tug with long tow of lighters was then observed on the port quarter, the last lighter of the tow being near ship?s stern. The tow reported that a lighter had been sunk by ship?s wash, and another had shipped water.
No signal was given at any time by the tug towing lighters. “GLORIA” at once
