The master of the smaller vessel called Dover Coastguard on VHF to report the
encounter as a hazardous incident. The watchkeeper on board the container ship denied that any risk of collision had existed. Both ships continued on their respective passages.
73.The traffic direction in the separation schemes is approximately _______. A. 120° B. 215° C. south-west D. 035°~215° 74.______ is (are) the stand on vessel.
A. The general cargo vessel B. The container ship C. Neither of the two ships D. Both the two ships
75.The smaller vessel stopped her engine when the distance between the two was _______.
A. 2.75 miles B. 1.5 miles C. 5 cables D. still to be assessed 76.The following are true except _______.
A. Since the smaller vessel had slowed down, the larger vessel would be watching a very different situation to that which had existed earlier.
B. It is unlikely that five short and rapid blasts on the whistle at a range in excess of 2.5 miles
will be heard if the watchkeepers in the other vessel are maintaining a lookout from an
enclosed bridge.
C. Officers of the watch must take account of any other shipping that might
become an embarrassment once the alteration has been made.
D. It is not necessary to make another homily for watchkeeping officers about
keeping a good lookout, assessing whether collision exists or interpreting the

The most common kinds of paint found on board ship are as follows: metal primers, which are applied to a bare surface to give protection against rust and to act as a key to the next coat; undercoats, which are used over the primer before the top coat; top coats which provide a hard-wearing surface and give the required color; heat-resistant paints for radiators and pipes and for the ship?s funnel; non-slip paints for use on weather decks and other suitable surfaces such as companion-ways; and varnishes to give a clear protective coat to woodwork. For painting, the surface of a ship?s hull is divided into three distinct areas: the topside, boot-topping and bottom. Topside paint is supplied in the company?s colors.
It is applied to the area of the ship?s hull which is out of the water when the ship is loaded. Boot-topping is applied to that area of the hull which is out of the water when the ship is in the light condition and under water when the ship is loaded. A ship?s bottom is given a coating of anti-fouling paint. Anti-fouling paints contain toxicants which are poisonous to marine life. The toxicants have to dissolve out of the paint into the surrounding water in order to be effective. 212
69. According to the passage, the main deck should be applied with ___________. A. heat-resistant paints B. varnishes C. boot-topping paints D. non-slip paints
70. The toxicants have to dissolve out of the paint into the surrounding water
12
_____________ .
A. because they are poisonous to mariners? life
B. because they are noxious to marine plants and marine animals C. both A and B
D. neither A nor B
71. Boot-topping paints should be applied to ____________. A. the ship?s bottom
B. the area of the hull which is out of the water when the ship is in ballast and under water when the ship is laden
C. the area of the hull which is out of the water when the ship is loaded and under water when
the ship is in the light condition
D. the area of the hull which is out of the water when the ship is loaded 72.The best heading for the passage should be ____________.
A. Maintenance on board B. Types of paint on a ship?s hull C. How to apply the ship?s paints D. The usage of the ship?s paints 第二组：第一次
One, or a combination of, the following two failure scenarios could occur. Firstly, the double bottom structure of girders and floors could sustain sufficient damage under the negative buoyancy condition where the double bottom structure is subjected to the cargo loading only. If the transverse floor and longitudinal girder web plating structures, have deteriorated due to corrosion or mechanical damage, then shear failure can result and the double bottom may collapse. The loss of the hull girder flange, formed by the double bottom, would invariably lead to the loss of the ship.

Secondly, where water enters a loaded hold , the transverse watertight bulkheads are subject to the cargo loading increased by a static head of water equal to the flooded draught and a dynamic effect due to the fluid motion in the hold . If the watertight bulkhead has corroded then plastic collapse, or shear failure of the corrugated bulkhead connection to the lower shelf place, can occur followed by bulkhead failure. With two hold s flooded, the ship would in all likelihood sink.
73. It is implied in the passage that ________ will inevitably lead to the sinking of the ship.
A. the double bottom structure is subjected to the cargo loading only B. water enters a loaded hold
C. bulkhead fails when there is no water in the hold
D. the loss of the hull girder flange or more than one hold are flooded 74. Negative buoyancy condition refers to the condition of ________. A. hogging B. sagging C. rolling D. pitching
75. The reason why the ship would sink with two hold s flooded is that she will loss her ________.
A. stability B. strength C. buoyancy D. gravity
76. Where water enters a loaded hold , the transverse watertight bulkheads are not subject to ______.
A. the cargo loading B. static head of water C. dynamic effect due to the fluid motion in the hold D. support from other deck covers

As part of a safety equipment survey on board the tanker Jahre Viking while she was lying alongside in Dubai, a totally enclosed lifeboat was being lowered when a suspension chain parted resulting in its falling 25m into the water. Two of its occupants were killed.
The lifeboat was manned by the chief officer and five others. They had embarked when the lifeboat was in its stowed position and had strapped themselves in their seats. The bosun controlled the winch locally.
The lowering operation progressed normally until the swinging arms of the davits made contact with their resting pads. At this stage one link of the suspension chain on the forward lower block failed and caused that end of the lifeboat to drop. As it swung down, the aft hook involuntarily released allowing the lifeboat to fall 25m into the water where it remained afloat, but upside down. Four people inside the lifeboat managed to scramble clear, but two did not. They both lost their lives.
Laboratory testing of the fractured chain link established that failure had occurred due to excessive brittleness leading to the creation of fine cracks in the link. These allowed the salt laden atmosphere to penetrate causing corrosion. Repeated mechanical load, together with the corrosion, caused the cracks to spread until the link was seriously weakened.
69.Before the lifeboat felt down, there were ________ occupants in it. A. 2 B. 5 C. 6 D. 8
70.The two people who were killed inside the lifeboat ________.
