Here follows some examples of security measures to take at different security levels. For SECURITY Level 1, the reason for personnel seeking access to the vessel should be verified by checking tickets, boarding passes, work orders or ID cards. Crewmembers, passengers, vendors, dock-workers and authorized visitors should be positively identified prior to each embarkation. New crewmembers should be cross-referenced with company on-signers information. Body searches and the inspection of baggage for prohibited weapons, incendiaries and explosives should be carried out on a random basis. For SECURITY Level 2, the same measures should be done as defined above, but with an increased inspection frequency on embarking persons, and for SECURITY Level 3, in addition to the measures set up in SECURITY Level 2, all embarking persons must be inspected and all persons except crew members must be escorted when onboard.69.Body searches and the inspection of baggage for prohibited weapons, incendiaries andexplosives should be carried out on a random basis.A.cashesB.Flammable agentsC.Wine and beersD.Bonded store articles70.For the measures to be taken in SECURITY Level 2, the following are all correct EXCEPT______.A.

The security measures第二组：Since condensation will cause steel products to rust, the temperature of the steel at the time of loading together with the anticipated climatic conditions during the voyage must be carefully considered. At 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 dewpoint 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 might be encountered later on in the voyage, the hold should not be ventilated. If the cargo is exposed to warmer air having a dewpoint 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.73.CARGO SWEAT will form when ______.A.the steel in cargo hold is exposed to warmer air having a dewpoint higher than its temperatureB. the steel in cargo hold is exposed to cooler air having a dewpoint lower than its temperatureC. falling ambient temperature causes the temperature of the ship's structure to drop belowthe dewpoint of the air in the holdD. increasing ambient temperature causes the temperature of the ship's structure to go higherthan the dewpoint of the air in the hold74.Ventilation is not necessary should the steel be loaded in conditions where the ambienttemperature is ______ later on in the voyage.A. higher than might be encounteredB. lower than might be encounteredC. equal to that might be encounteredD. compared regularly75.If a falling ambient temperature causes the temperature of the ship's structure to drop belowthe dewpoint of the air in the hold, ______ is likely to form.A. CARGO SWEATB. SHIP SWEATC. dewpointD. accumulation of free moisture76. It is inferred that most of the rust of steel cargo loaded on board ships is caused by ______.A. CARGO SWEATB. SHIP SWEATC. low dewpoint of the air in the holdD. unnecessary ventilation carried out by crew。
