important process in the storage,transportation,and sales of commodities.In international trade,packing is also decisive in identifying commodities.Hence,packing is one of the key terms in business communication and negotiation.,Shipment is a very important part of international trade because goods by the seller have to be delivered to the buyer abroad,and the delivery of the goods is to be made possible by transport service,by road,rail,sea and air.Usually there are three parties involved in most movements of goods:the consignor,the carrier and the consignee,Shipment covers rather a wide range of work,such as buyers sending shipping instructions,sellers sending shipping advice,booking shipping space,chartering ships,appointing shipping agent,arranging shipment,nomination of vessels,etc.,Cargoes,Cargoes,fall into three groups:,Bulk cargoes or cargoes in bulk:like wheat,mineral ore,coal,etc.,Nude cargoes:like plants,vehicles,bronze or steel plates or blocks.,Packed

following questions.,1,）,Why is packing considered to be particularly important in international trade?,Because goods have to travel long distances before reaching their destination across oceans or continents.Accidents,rough weather,unloading and reloading on the way,everything has to be taken into consideration.,2)What are the rights for both the importer and exporter in the sales contract regarding packing?,The importer has the right to expect that his goods will reach him in perfect condition and the exporter has to get them into a nice,compact shape that will stay that way during the roughest journey,.,3)Why do large export firms establish a special department for export packing?,Nothing is more infuriating to an importer than to find his goods damaged or part missing on arrival;and nothing is more likely to an exporter than to lose a customer.,4)What are being done to ensure the safe transport of goods?,New packing materials are being developed which are light and strong,and new methods being found to ensure the safe transport of goods.,5)What is the general plan in all packing?,The general plan in all packing is not only to make the goods secure for the journey,but also pack the goods as lightly and compactly as possible in order to minimize the freight charges.,11.1.2 Listen to the following passage and fill in the missing parts.,The,cargo,carried by a ship is listed in the,manifest,which is a list of the,bills of lading,covering all the,consignments,on that vessel for that voyage.It is just one of the,documents,that are involved in the shipping of goods;the,insurance policy,and,commercial invoice,are among the others.The,Customs and Excise,authorities will examine all these.,Clearing and forwarding,agents are often used to handle the,transportation,of goods.They will arrange for the,loading and unloading,of the goods and arrange all the,dock services,that are needed.,The,shipping marks,which are,stenciled,on the cases,provide an easy way of,identifying,the items in a consignment when they are,unloaded,.The marks are described in the manifest,which is again,inspected,when the goods are,cleared,through Customs on reaching their,destination,.,Speaking Task,In this part you are going to read two dialogues in pairs and then you will be asked to answer some questions about what you have read.,Please read louder!,1)What is the way of inner packing for blouses,？,As to the packing of blouses,a polythene wrapper is used for each article,all ready for window display.,2)What about the outer packing for the blouses?,The blouses are packed 10 dozen to one carton,gross weight around 25 kilos a carton.,3)Why are cartons used for packing blouses,？,The cartons are comparatively light and therefore easy to handle.Blouses are not,fragile goods.They can stand a lot of jolting.,4)Why is,Mr,White worried about cartons for packing his goods?,He is afraid that cartons are not strong enough for such a heavy load.Besides,the goods are to be transshipped at London.If the boxes are moved about on an open wharf,the dampness or rain may get into them.This would make the blouses spotted or ruined.,5)What was,Mr,Huangs explanation then?,The cartons lined with plastic sheets were waterproof,and as the boxes were made of cardboard,they would be handled with care.,6)Did,Mr,White accept,Mr,Huangs way of packing the blouses in the end?,He couldnt decide himself.So he would phone his boss for instructions on the matter.,11.2.1 Read the dialogue and then answer the following questions,.,11.2.2 Read the dialogue and then answer the following questions,1)How was the time of delivery stated in,Mr,Wans,quotation?,The time of delivery will be in November.,2)What time did,Mr,Tyler want his goods shipped?,He wanted shipment effected before late September.,3)Why couldnt,Mr,Wan advance the shipment as,Mr,Tyler required?,Because it took much time to prepare the goods,send the goods by train to the loading port,and book the space of a steamer.Besides,liner space for Europe up to the end of next month had been booked up.,4)What terms of shipment did they agree upon after negotiation?,Shipment will be made by first available steamer in October with port of delivery being any European Main Port and transshipment not allowed.,5)If,Mr,Tyler wants the goods shipped in time,what should he do?,He should open the L/C in time and have it reach the seller 60 days before shipment.,6)Why did Tyler ask,Mr,Wan to send him the shipping advice as soon as the goods were on board?,(Open),Reading Task,PRE-READING QUESTIONS FOR PAIR WORK,1.What are the commonly used modes you know in international cargo transportation?,2.In the transportation of goods,what factors do you have to consider?,Questions,1.What are the major means of transportation mentioned in the passage?,The major means of transportation mentioned in the passage are railroad,airplanes,ships,trucks,and pipelines.,2.What transportation mode would be profitable to ship fancy fruits to the Pacific Northwest to Scandinavia?,Jet-cargo aircraft.,3.What products can be transported by railroad?Why?,Bulk products that are low in value in relation to their weight and that must travel great distances.Because trains can go only where there are tracks,railroads can directly serve only points on railroad lines.,4.What has increased greatly over the past two decades?Why?,The use of air freight.Because air freight now uses high-speed,supercargo planes to move bulk goods.Containerization permits more efficient use of aspect in planes,and the speed of air transport allows great efficiency.,5.Why have waterways long served for transportation?,Because cargo ships and barges move bulky goods at low cost and low speed.The loading of truck trailers directly onto ships and barges brings some flexibility to water transportation.Barges moved by tugboats have long been used to move railroad cars.,6.Why are offshore ports being constructed for unloading?,With the development of container ships,large quantities of goods can be stored in their holds and also in standardized and easy-to-handle containers on the decks.New super-ships are too big for many harbors,so offshore ports are being constructed for unloading,.,7.What goods can be moved in pipeline?How can coal be moved in pipeline?,Such goods as gasoline,crude oil,natural gas and even solids like coal can be moved in pipelines.The coal is ground into a powder that is mixed with water to form slush and moved through pipelines.,In this part you are going to learn how to write a shipping advice.,Writing Task,Shipping Advice,The,shipping advice,is a notice to the importer on summary of the shipment.If a transaction is concluded on a CIF or CFR basis,the exporter should,before or after effecting shipment,notify their dispatch to the importer.In case of CFR transaction,a shipping advice is also necessary for the importer to cover insurance of their goods based on the shipping advice.Moreover,the importer may know when to receive the goods and arrange with a customs broker for the cargo clearance.,Sometimes,Xeroxed copies of the relevant copies of shipping documents are also sent together with the advice to ensure that in case the original is belated,the,importer can take delivery with them.,What does a shipping advice usually include?,A shipping advice usually includes the following information:,1)The name of the ship used to dispatch the goods;,2)The name of the goods,the quantity and value,；,3)The date and number of Bill of Lading;,4)The date and number of the Contract;,5)The name of the shipping port/loading port;,6)The estimated time of departure(ETD);,7)The estimated time of arrival;,8)The packing conditions;,9)Whether the draft drawn under
