  12. Reading and Analyzing • Shipment

  13. Reading and Analyzing Brainstorming Question

  14. Shipment Shipping has multiple meanings. It can be a physical process of transporting goods cargo, by land, air, and sea. It also can describe the movement of objects by ship. Land or "ground" shipping can be by train or by truck. In Air and Sea shipments, ground transportation is often still required to take the product from its origin to the airport or seaport and then to its destination. Ground transportation is typically more affordable than air shipments, but more expensive than shipping by sea. Shipment of freight by trucks, directly from the shipper to the destination, is known as a door to door shipment. Vans and trucks make deliveries to sea ports and air ports where freight is moved in bulk.

  15. Shipment Much shipping is done aboard actual ships. An individual nation's fleet and the people that crew it are referred to its merchant navy or merchant marine. Merchant shipping is essential to the world economy, carrying the bulk of international trade. The term shipping in this context originated from the shipping trade of wind power ships, and has come to refer to the delivery of cargo and parcels of any size above the common mail of letters and postcards.

  16. Shipment • Common trading terms used in shipping goods internationally include: • Freight on board, or free on board (FOB) - the exporter delivers the goods at the specified location (and on board the vessel). Costs paid by the exporter include load and lash, including securing cargo not to move in the ships hold, protecting the cargo from contact with the double bottom to prevent slipping, and protection against damage from condensation. For example, at Kunming Airport, FOB means that the exporter delivers the goods to the airport, and pays for the cargo to be loaded and secured on the plane. The exporter is bound to deliver the goods at his cost and expense. In this case, the freight and other expenses for outbound traffic is borne by the importer.

  17. Shipment • Cost and freight (C&F, CFR, CNF): Insurance is payable by the importer, and the exporter pays the ocean shipping/air freight costs to the specified location. For example, C&F Los Angeles (the exporter pays the ocean shipping/air freight costs to Los Angeles). Many of the shipping carriers (such as UPS, DHL, FedEx) offer guarantees on their delivery times. These are known as GSR guarantees or "guaranteed service refunds"; if the parcels are not delivered on time, the customer is entitled to a refund.

  18. Shipment • Cost, insurance, and freight (CIF): Insurance and freight are all paid by the exporter to the specified location. For example, at CIF New York, the exporter pays the ocean shipping/air freight costs to New York including the insurance.

  19. Shipment The term "best way" generally implies that the shipper will choose the carrier who offers the lowest rate (to the shipper) for the shipment. In some cases, however, other factors, such as better insurance or faster transit time will cause the shipper to choose an option other than the lowest bidder.

  22. Notes to the Passage • 1. In Air and Sea shipments, ground transportation is often still required to take the product from its origin to the airport or seaport and then to its destination. • 在空运和海运中，通常也涉及陆地交通，以此将商品从厂家运至机场或码头，再运至目的地。 • 2. Shipment of freight by trucks, directly from the shipper to the destination, is known as a door to door shipment. • 货物装车，从发货人出货直到目的地的过程，称为送货上门。送货上门，自发货点到收货点的交易方式，也叫“交钥匙”方式，买方只需付款，由卖方负责将货物交到买方场地。对外贸易过程中，卖方也负责清关等程序。

  23. Notes to the Passage 3. Much shipping is done aboard actual ships. An individual nation’s fleet and the people that crew it are referred to its merchant navy or merchant marine. 许多运输实际都是将货物装船。某个国家的船队和船员称之为商船队。 4. The term shipping in this context originated from shipping trade of wind power ships, and has come to refer to the delivery of cargo and parcels of any size above the common mail of letters and postcards. 本文中的“运输”一词来源于使用风能船只的航运业，现在发展为除邮递普通信件和明信片之外的任何货物和包裹的运输。

  24. Notes to the Passage 5. Costs paid by the exporter include load and lash, including securing cargo not to move in the ships hold, protecting the cargo from contact with the double bottom to prevent slipping, and protection against damage from condensation. 出口商承担装货和捆扎的费用，包括确保货物在舱内不移动，货物与双层底隔离以防打滑，防止冷凝的危害。 6. Many of the shipping carriers (such as UPS, DHL, FedEx) offer guarantees on their delivery times. These are known as GSR guarantees or "guaranteed service refunds" 许多货运公司（如美国联合包裹运输公司，德国中外运敦豪公司，美国联邦快递公司）提供保证交货时间的服务。这被称作“限时送达”，若交货时间推迟可获退款。

  25. Group Discussion 1.What does “shipment” really mean? 2.How important do you think GSR guaranteesare totrading companies? 3.Which term involves the payment of insurance? C&F, CFR, CNF, FOB or CIF? 4. How to suggest partial shipment and transshipment to your trading partner?
