READING COMPREHENSION: HOW MERCHANT SHIPS OPERATE.

Merchants’ ships are designed to carry cargo. Some are algo designed to carry passengers.
Nowadays most merchants’ ships are built to carry cargo. A few still carry passengers. Merchant
vessels can operate in the following three basic ways.

They can operate as liners. Liners are employed on regular routes on a fix timetable. A list of their
arrival and departure dates is published in advance. They sail whether they are full or not.

Merchant vessels can also operate as tramps. Tramps do not sail on regular routes. They do not
keep to a fixed timetable. They are employed in all parts of the world where there is a cargo for them
to carry.

A large number of merchant ships operate as specialized vessels. These are designed to carry a
particular type of cargo.

IV. READING COMPREHENSION

TYPES OF MERCHANT SHIP

Merchant ships can be classified according to what they carry. Most are designed to carry cargo, but
a few still carry passengers.

Cargo ships can be divided into basic types. One type carries dry cargo, the other carries liquid
cargo. Multi-deck vessels are a traditional type of dry cargo ship. Their holds are divided horizontally
by one or two tween decks. Dry bulks cargo is carried in bulk carriers. These do not have tween
decks. Containers ship are the most modern type of dry cargo carrier. They carry containers of
standards dimensions. Fruits, meat, and dairy produce are carried in refrigerated ships. Oil tankers
are the most common type of liquid cargo carrier. They are often very large. Two other type of liquid
bulk carrier of growing importance are liquefied natural gas (LNG) carriers and chemical carriers.

In comparison with cargo vessels, passenger ships are fewer in number and type. Passenger liners
are the traditional type of passenger ship. Nowadays, their number has been greatly reduced. Cruise
ships are another type of passenger vessel. These are often converted passenger liners. Ferries are
the most common type of passenger vessel. Many of them are also designed to carry vehicles.

10 Important Panama Canals Facts Everyone Should Know

1. Who Built the Panama Canal?

R- engineer Ferdinand de Lesseps
2. Which was the first vessel to cross the Panama Canal?
R- the Ancon steam
3. How much time is saved by crossing the Panama Canal?
R- in just 8 or 10 hours.
4. How much does it cost to transit the Panama Canal?
R- A-Currently a fee of US $ 90 is charged for each of the containers that are in the cargo bin, so a
cargo ship with a maximum capacity of 15 thousand, would pay US $ 1 million 350 thousand to
cross the channel.
5. How do the locks at the Panama Canal work and why are they there in the first place?
R- The locks work as water lifts: they raise the vessels from sea level (either Pacific or Atlantic) to
the level of Gatun Lake (26 meters above sea level); thus, ships navigate through the channel of
the Canal, in the Central Cordillera of Panama.
6. What is the maximum draft allowed to transit the Panama Canal?
R- a draft of 50 feet, the maximum
7. What are pre-arrival preparations required before transiting the Panama Canal?
R- Every ship that is going to transit through the Panama Canal must previously announce its
arrival, through the service portal. The maritime traffic control assistant checks that the information
is complete and correct to pass it on to the different applications of the operating system. Based on
this information, each ship has its corresponding navigation restrictions and the resources it
requires for port and / or transit movements, in strict compliance with the operational and
navigation rules of the Panama Canal.
8. Navigation in Panama Canal and Its Challenges
R- transit through the new locks is something else, but it is a challenge as a very important
professional.
9. Honorary Pilots
R- Each map has an annual cost of 25 dollars and each ship must buy the five nautical charts to
cross the Canal. The shipping companies must pay annually 125 dollars for the five letters for each
ship, which represents a new income that is generated in the Canal for the benefit of the country.
10. Competitors of the Panama Canal
R- Panama's main competitors in terms of transshipment are Cartagena, Kingston, Caucedo and
more recently Buenaventua.

UNIT 5

BUILDING SHIPS

Ships cost a lot of money to build. A general cargo vessel costs several million pounds, and a giant tanker can
cost over 40 million pounds. One reason for this is the high cost of steel and other material used in
shipbuilding. Another reason is the high cost of labor.

A modern shipyard is designed for building ships as cheaply and quickly as possible. Many of the old
processes have disappeared or been combined one fully mechanized process. Machines are now used
instead of men. Today, ship can be built in about sixteen months and costs can be kept to a minimum.

Who designed ships? Ships are designed by naval architects. The largest shipping companies have their own
naval architects. In Europe and Japan, shipyards employ naval architects to design a ship for a customer, or
often basic designs which can be varied to suit the customer’s needs. Shipowners may also go to independent
firms of shipping consultants and ask their naval architects to design a ship for them.

When shipowner decide to order a new ship, they tell the naval architect the cargo they want the ship to carry.
They also tell him what routes the ship will ply and desire speed. They put limits on the ship must comply with
the rules of the classification society and international regulations. Economic, engineering and safety factors all
govern the design of a ship.

Panama is a country with an important border line at the Pacific and Atlantic oceans. This provides an

extraordinary opportunity to develop a network of national seaports dedicated not only to handling

containerized cargo, but also a large variety of cargo either for local or international markets.

The Panamanian seaports in the National Port System (NPS) are divided into two groups: state ports

and private ports. Private ports have been given to terminal operators after a privatization process of

former state ports (concession). State ports are still operated by the government under the

management of the Panama Maritime Authority (AMP), and basically provide dockage, and other

related services for local users and short-sea services.

CONJUCTIONS

A conjunction is the glue that holds words, phrases and clauses (both dependent and independent)
together. There are three different kinds of conjunctions -- coordinating, subordinating, and correlative
-- each serving its own, distinct purpose, but all working to bring words together.

What Is a Coordinating Conjunction?

Coordinating conjunctions are what come to most people's minds when they hear the word

"conjunction." They join together words, phrases, and independent clauses. With them, short and

choppy sentences can be joined into fuller lines. There are seven of them, and they're easy to

remember if you can just think of the acronym "FANBOYS."

For - Explains reason or purpose (just like "because") And

- Adds one thing to another.
Nor - Used to present an alternative negative idea to an already stated negative idea
But - Shows contrast
Or - Presents an alternative or a choice.
Yet - Introduces a contrasting idea that follows the preceding idea logically.
So - Indicates effect, result or consequence.

Coordinating Conjunctions Used in Sentences

Here are some example sentences using the seven coordinating conjunctions:

1. I go to the park every Sunday, for I love to watch the ducks on the lake.

2. I watch the ducks on the lake and the shirtless men playing soccer.

3. I don't go for the fresh air nor for the ducks; I just like soccer.

4. Soccer is entertaining in winter, but it's better in the heat of summer.

5. The men play on two teams: shirts or skins.

6. I always take a book to read, yet I never seem to turn a single page.

7. I'm dating one of the players, so I watch the soccer game each week.

They are also used to tow barges, damaged boats, or other floating devices.
2. DREDGERS
It is equipment that can be installed on a boat or on land, used to excavate material below
the water level, and then raise it to the surface. These operations can be carried out in
navigable channels, in ports, docks or reservoirs.

3. ICEBREAKER
An icebreaker is a special ship designed to move and navigate through ice-covered seas
and rivers. For a ship to be considered an icebreaker, it requires three components: a
special reinforced hull, a hull shape that makes it easier for it to disperse ice, and enough
power to break through.

4. LIGHTSHIPS

indicate position, heading, and state.

5. LIFEBOATS

 UNIT 9 TIME AT THE SEA

Time is defined as a measurable period during which an action exists. The manner in which time is
expressed must then suit the purpose for which it is intended. There are many reasons for a 24-hour
clock. Accuracy, not only in recording, but also in communicating, is a primary argument for the
24hour clock. The terms “A.M.” and “P.M.” are not required.

Daytime and nighttime are not significant factors. There are many places on the earth that are without
the sun’s light for weeks at a time. At other times there are no nights.

LET’S PRACTICE

Procedu. re:

A. Conversion to 24-hour Time

Orally, 24-hour time is expressed in “hundreds”: for instance, 8:00 A.M.

would be spoken “eight hundred hours”; 2:30 P.M. would be spoken “fourteen thirty hours”.
The written time uses four digits. Convert the following to the 24-hour clock
AM-PM CLOCK 24-HOUR CLOCK
1. 7:52 A.M. __19:52 P.M_____
3. 10:00 A.M. __ 1000 A.M___
4. 10:00 P.M. ___ 2300 P.M___
5. 3:30 P.M. ____1530 P.M____
6. 5:15 P.M. ____1715 P.M___
7. 12:00 noon _ _1200 A.M_____
8. 12:00 midnight ____2400 P.M____
9. 12:04 A.M. ____1200 _A.M___

B. Conversion to A.M.-P.M. Clock

Convert the following to A.M.-P.M. clock.

1. __3:15 A.M__________ 0315
2. _11:00 P.M__________ 2300
3.___11:2 A.M_________ 112
4. _1:21 A.M___________ 0121
5.___5:00 P.M__________ 1700

A.M.-P.M. Clock 24 Hour Clock

TRADITIONALLY TIME AT SEA IS DIVIDED INTO 4-HOUR PERIOD CALLLED

WATCHES.

1. THERE ARE SIX WATCHES

MIDNIGHT 0400 MIDDLE WATCH NOON-1600 AFTERNOON WATCH

0400-0800 MORNING WATCH 1600-2000 EVENING WATCH

0800-NOON FORENOON WATCH 2000-MIDNIGHT FIRST WATCH

The Evening Watch can be divided into two short watches.

1600-1800 FIRST DOG WATCH 1800-2000 SECOND DOG WATCH
Each watch is in charge of an officer. The traditional pattern is as follow:
 12-4 4-8 8-12
a-,
a.m. MIDDLE WATCH MORNING WATCH FORENOON WATCH

p.m. AFTERNOON WATCH EVENING WATCH FIRST WATCH

Deck SECOND OFFICER CHIEF OFFICER THIRD OFFICER

Engine THIRD ENGINEER SECOND ENGINEER FOURTH ENGINEER

Traditionally the passage of time at sea is marked by bells. Bells are struck
throughout each watch as follows:

After ½ hour 1 bell - After 2 hours 4 bells - After 3 ½ hour 7 bells After
1 hour 2 bell - After 2 ½ hours 5 bells - After 4 hours 8 bells After 1 ½
hours 3 bells - After 3 hours 6 bells.

During the Second Dog Watch the bells strike 1- 2- 3- 8

1 bell struck 15 minutes before each watch is due to change.

Common interview questions

The most important part of preparing for an interview is practice. Knowing what job interview
questions, you might be asked is essential - that way, you can craft your answers well in advance,
and feel confident in your responses when the pressure is on.
Our expert consultants have identified the must-know interview questions and answers, to ensure
your next interview is a success.

1. Tell me about yourself.

This is often the first of many interview questions, designed to ‘warm up’ the candidate., it’s important
you offer new information, such as what your hobbies are outside of work. You can explain about
your past experiences.
2. What attracted you to our company?
This is your opportunity to demonstrate that you’ve done your research. Prior to the interview, read up
on everything you can about the company from their own website, social media channels and other
news articles and forums. Identify what stands out about the company’s mission and values, and how
that resonates with your own desired career path and personal values.

3. Tell me about your strengths.

This should be the easiest question to prepare for. Identify two or three of your best attributes and
give concrete examples of those strengths, articulating how they led to the professional success you
achieved. Be sure to close the loop and articulate how they are relevant to the job you’re interviewing
for.

4. What are your weaknesses?

Take the time to craft an answer that isn’t a cliché. Nothing makes a hiring manager cringe more than
the answer: “I’m a perfectionist.” This is your opportunity to demonstrate your own self-awareness
and desire for personal development.

5. Where do you see yourself in five years?

Your employer wants to see how driven and goal-oriented you are. They also want to check that your
expectations are realistic. In your answer, demonstrate your awareness of industry trends and ability
to be flexible.

6. Can you tell me about a time where you encountered a business challenge?
How did you overcome it?
Behavioral question alert! This is your opportunity to use the CAR method: Context, Action, and
Result. Choose an example that demonstrates where you have solved a business challenge using a
skill that the employer is looking for. Provide the background, describe what action you took and the
professional result you achieved.

7. What are the most important things you are looking for in your next role?
Start with your skills. Identify a skill that you exceed in and talk about how you are looking for a role
that will utilize and further develop that skill. You should also explain your motivations and how this
role can help you achieve your long-term goals. Always ensure that your answer is relevant to the
company and the role in question.
8. Why are you leaving your current job?
It’s critical to frame your answer in the positive. Never say anything negative about your current
employer, no matter how strongly your feelings for leaving are. Instead, focus on the specific, positive
things that a career change to the new role will bring, for example, professional development
opportunities or the excitement of a new challenge.

9. What are your salary expectations?

Do your research beforehand. Our Salary Guide can give you the latest salary trends and
benchmarks. If you come prepared with reasonable salary expectations, you and your employer will
know straight away if you are going to feel sufficiently compensated in the role. For more information,
read our article 'When should you start discussing salary in an interview?'.

10. Do you have any questions for me?

It’s important to come with a list of pre-prepared interview questions. Some of these might already be
answered during the interview, so check these off as you go, to avoid asking the same question
twice.
