二．关联题（每组关联题题干下有4个小题，每小题4个选项）

第一组：

The effectiveness of an anchor depends largely on the material that constitutes the sea or estuary (河口)bottom, normally determined by the hydrographers who have surveyed the sea and identified it for the convenience of mariners on the chart. When preparing to anchor, the ship’s Master needs to know, besides the water depth, the "quality of the bottom" whether it is of sand or mud, or rocky. The Master will try and avoid "foul ground" which may have underwater hazards that may snag the anchor, and will be happier where the bottom is of mud or sand, that will enable the flukes of the anchor to dig(掘土) in and hold the ship fast. The holding quality is also helped

by having plenty of cable out to lie on the bottom, which itself acts as a brake on movement.

Tides or winds may affect the safety of an anchorage and the officers of the watch need to watch the position of the ship carefully, lest(以免) the anchor drags and the ship be washed ashore. Visual compass bearings of shore marks can provide a good indication of any untoward movement, although care must be taken not to confuse an anchor dragging with the normal swinging around

the mooring as the tide or wind changes.

While merchant ships tend to use a convention anchor with two flukes that can be housed in a tubular hawse pipe when recovered aboard ship, specialist anchors have been devised for different types of craft. Drilling rigs, for instance, have anchors that are optimal for the particular sea bottom, and a big semi-submersible will lie to a pattern(式样) of perhaps eight anchors, laid out

by anchor handling supply boats which are in attendance when the rig is moved. Permanent moorings, for navigational buoys may use screw anchors which are screwed into the sea bottom, while light vessels often employ very heavy anchors shaped like a mushroom.

69．______ is compared to “a brake” on movement by the passage?

A. The fluke of the anchor

B. The chains lying on the bottom

C. The chains hanging in the water

D. The brought-up of the anchor 70．The total holding forces of an anchor come from _____.

A. The digging in of the flukes of the anchor and the quality of the bottom

B. The quality of the bottom and the cables lying on the bottom.

C. The brake and the cables lying on the bottom.

D. The digging in of the flukes of the anchor and the friction of

cables lying on the bottom

71．The order given to “house a convention anchor in a tubular hawse pipe”

in merchant marine operations is ______.

A. Anchor home

B. Anchor back

C. Anchor house

D. Anchor positioning

72．Which of the following is correct as to the specialist anchoring?

A. The best ground for specialist anchoring is sand or mud.

B. Specialist anchoring can be done anywhere.

C. Specialist anchoring is usually designed to create larger holding forces.

D. The holding forces are derived from the flukes of the anchor and

the cables lying on the bottom

第二组：

One 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(建筑) 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.

73．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 moment

B.that changes in the response of the ship may be masked by the storm

C.that the conditions of the weather may prevent the crew members from

detecting the response of the ship

D. that the crew members are poorly educated and have not enough

knowledge

74．The flooding of No. 1 hold _______.

A. will result in an almost instantaneous loss of hull buoyancy and the ship

sinking

B. will create a chain reaction involving the hatch covers being displaced,

bulkheads collapsing

C. will progress to the adjacent No. 2 hold

D. is normally a survivable situation

75．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 flooded

B. No. 2 hold is flooded

C. both No. 1 and No. 2 hold are flooded

D. either both No. 1 or No. 2 hold is

flooded

76．The best title of this paragraph shall be ______.

A. The flooding and division arrangement of the ship

B. Knowing when the holds are taking in water is very important

C. Crew members will never know when the holds are flooded

D. Flooding is unavoidable
