This increased efficiency can be achieved on watch by heaving all the navigational information in a central source off watch it is increased by reducing the time taken to complete chart updating and passage planning. The MAIB report identifies fatigue of the watch-keeping a one of the main causes of marine incidents. If ECDIS reduce fatigue by improving efficiency both on watch and off watch, the system will directly contribute to safety.The same report also stated that the hydrographic community should band together to promote ECDIS as a factor to improve safety and efficiency. In fact, new, ECDIS-enable procedures may allow many shipping companies to better manage their core operations, from better weather routing to increased voyage optimization and increased integration to other shipboard systems that affect operational efficiency.(1)Why are the shipping companies willing to introduce the ECDIS?A.The introduction of ECDIS will help administration monitor the safetyB.The use of ECDIS will help reduce the other equipment on boardC.The use of ECDIS will help improve efficiencyD.The instruction of ECDIS will help seafarers acquire new technology(2)What is the main reason of marine incidents claims by MAIB report?A.The seafarers on duty are of inadequacy to knowledgeB.The seafarers on duty are under fatigue conditionC.The seafarers on duty are doing something unrelated to safety navigationD.The seafarers on duty are of being willfully committed.(3)What roles do not ECDIS-enabled procedures play in shipping industry?A.It can be speed up ship s turnaroundB.It can better combine with other shipboard systemsC.It can optimize the weather routingD.IT can revive the charts industry(4)About ECDIS increasing efficiency on board, which one is not mentioned in the passage?A.It gives the suggestion to maneuvers the ship to avoid collisionB.It integrates all navigational informationC.It cuts down the time to correct the chartD.It trims down time for passing planning4.

The steering and sailing rules for vessels in restricted visibility apply to vessels .A. navigating in or near an area of restricted visibilityB. in sight of one another in fogC. only if they are showing special purpose lightsD. only if they have operational radarOne of the major problems is that flooding of a hold space may occur without the knowledge of the crew,particularly in heavy weather conditions where visibility may be minimal and any changes in the response of the ship may be masked by the storm.The influence of flooding No.1 hold on a bulk carrier carrying ore,from a naval architecture point of view,is of course to create a significant trim by the head.It is considered that on a well maintained ship this should be a survivable situation.In the event that flooding progress to the adjacent No.2 hold then the consequent trim can immerse the deck forward and the survivability of the ship under storm condition becomes doubtful.Another is also important and if this is a consequence of transverse watertight bulkhead failure then the shock loadings,both in terms of over and under pressures could create a chain reaction involving hatch covers being displaced,bulkheads collapsing,etc.,within a few seconds resulting in an almost instantaneous loss of hull buoyancy and the ship sinking.Knowing when the holds are taking in water is,therefore,considered very important.(1) The following _______ is not the reason that flooding of a hold space may occur without the knowledge of the crew.A.that the visibility may be too poor at the momentB.that changes in the response of the ship may be masked by the stormC.that the conditions of the weather may prevent the crew members from detecting the response of the shipD.that the crew members are poorly educated and have not enough knowledge(2) The flooding of No.1 hold _______.A.will result in an almost instantaneous loss of hull buoyancy and the ship sinkingB.will create a chain reaction involving the hatch covers being displaced,bulkheads collapsing C.will progress to the adjacent No.2 holdD.is normally a survivable situation(3) If _______,the consequent trim can immerse the deck forward and the survivability of the ship under storm condition becomes doubtful.A.No.1 hold is floodedB.No.2 hold is floodedC.both No.1 and No.2 hold are floodedD.either both No.1 or No.2 hold is flooded(4) The best title of this paragraph shall be _______.A.The flooding and division arrangement of the shipB.Knowing when the holds are taking in water is very importantC.Crew members will never know when the holds are floodedD.Flooding is unavoidable13. Which one of the following should not be paid attention to as to accommodation for seafarer? .A. CommunicationB. Heating and ventilationC. The size of rooms and other accommodation spacesD. Noise and vibration and other ambient factorsAt sea, wet and dry bulb ambient temperatures should be taken and compared regularly with hold temperatures as a matter of routine to gauge whether ventilation is necessary. If a falling ambient temperature causes the temperature of the ship s structure to drop below the dew-point of the air in the hold, condensation will form on the hold frames and plating. These accumulations, known as ship s sweat , may subsequently drip or run on to the cargo. By monitoring both hold and ambient temperatures this situation can be predicted, and the development of ship s sweat may be prevented or minimized by timely ventilation.Should the steel be loaded in conditions where the ambient temperature is lower than that might be encountered later on in the voyage, the hold should not be ventilated. If the cargo is exposed to warmer air having a dew-point higher than the temperature of the steel, cargo sweat will form on the surface of the goods. Since much, if not all, of the steel in the hold will be affected in such circumstances, the consequences of cargo sweat are potentially more damaging than the effects of ship s sweat.(1)How to determine whether ventilation is necessary or not?A.By comparing the hold temperature with that of the cargoB.By comparing the hold temperature with wet and dry bulb temperatureC.According to the temperature of the cargo(2)According to wet and dry bulb temperatureA.Having formed and accumulated gradually, ship s sweat may drip on to the cargoB.Ship s sweat can be predictedC.The damage caused by ship s sweat may be greater than that by cargo sweatD.Ship s sweat can be prevented and minimized(3)Cargo sweat may form when .A.The dew-point of air at the loading port than that on the voyageB.The temperature of structure higher than that of the cargoC.The temperature encountered later on the voyage higher than the ambient temperaturewhen loadedD.The dew-point of air outside the hold higher than the temperature of the cargo(4)In what condition may ship s sweat form?A.When wet and dry bulb ambient temperatures are equalB.When the temperature of ship s structure is below the dew-point of the air in theholdC.When the temperatures of the outside and ship s structure are below the dew-pointof air in the holdD.When ambient temperature is falling and below the dew-point of air in the hold14.
