Sea As with rail and air transport, large sums of money have to be spent on maintenance and control of traffic through the seaway. These costs have to be added to the operator’s own high costs. Cargo liners and super tankers are hugely expensive, and sea travel for these ships is slow. 海运 和铁路及航空运输一样，海上航道的交通维护及控制也需要花费巨额资金，这些成本都要加在运营商自身的高昂成本里。货轮和超级油轮都是巨额昂贵，且这些轮船的海上航程是缓慢的。 Despite the high costs, ships have large capacity and are good for heavy and bulk cargoes. Sea transport outdoes other forms of transport in terms of safety and cost-efficiency. Smaller non-urgent goods can be put into containers for shipping in bulk. 虽然其成本高昂，但轮船容量大，且适用于重型货物及散装货的运输。就安全性和成本效率性而言，海运优于其它运输形式，一些数量较少的非紧急货物也可以装入集装箱内以散装货托运。 以上内容为第一学时内所应完成的内容 课堂教学之—— Step 5 阅读材料 提示：这部分内容由教师指导，学生自学。以提高学生的自主学能力。 Intermodal and combined transport operations 跨式及联运实务 “Intermodal” transport is the transport of unit loads in such a way that they can be transferred between two or more modes with the minimum of rehandling. For example, a standard shipping freight container can be transferred with one lift from a road vehicle to a rail wagon. In this category we must also include the intermodal transfer of liquids such as petroleum from a pipeline to a road or rail vehicle. “跨式”运输是指单位装载量在运输时，可以在两个或两个以上的运输模式之间转移，使搬运最小化。譬如，一只标准的海运集装箱可以用公路车辆的一程转移到铁路车箱里。在这个类别里，我们也必须包括液体的跨式转移，比如石油从管道转移到公路或铁路车辆上。 “Combined transport” involves the carriage of freight by two or more successive modes where the vehicle, or part of it, is transferred along with the freight on to another vehicle for part of the journey. For example, a tractor unit and trailer, containing cargo, can be transported on a rail wagon, or a road vehicle can be carried across the Channel on a ro/ro vessel. “联运”涉及到由两个或两个以上的连续运输方式所进行的货物运载，在这种方式下，车辆或车辆的一部分，连同货物一道在一段行程中被转移到另一个车辆上。比如，一节装有货物的拖拉机单元和拖车可以运输到一节火车车厢上，或者一个公路车辆可以由滚装船运送而跨越海峡。 注释：滚装船的英文名字叫“roll on/roll off ship”简称“ro/ro”，是指可以通过踏板，使车辆或者轮式设备等自行驶上/驶下的船舶。 课堂教学之—— Step 6 课堂练习 提示：这部分内容由教师指导，学生自学。以提高学生
