材料：MV UNISOL Grounded
With the engines on stand-by，orders were given to cut the remaining forward lines at 0755 hours，the starboard engine was put on slow astern and the helm to hard a starboard．
When the forward lines were cut，the bow was blown off and swung away from the quay under the influence of the wind and，combined with the effect of the engine going astern on the after spring，canted the bow to port，until a heading of North was reached with the vessel&39;s stern approximately 15 meters off the dock face.
The engines were put to half astern at 0810 hours and with the bow continuing to swing to port，the after back-spring parted with the stern about 20 meters clear of the wharf．Orders were given to cut the remaining 5 stern lines．This was accomplished by 0818 hours，at which time the end of the pier was abeam of the bridge and the vessel was heading in a NW&39;ly direction.
Both engines were placed to full astern with the shaft turning 80-90 revolutions．As the UNISOL was unable to gain sternway and with high seas at the end of the breakwater，the Pilot feared that the vessel&39;s starboard quarter was in danger of striking the breakwater．Hence the engines were stopped at 0827 hours，and orders were given to let go port anchor to 2 shackles in the water，but about 4 shackles ran out before the brake could be fully applied.At 0828 hours，orders were given to shorten up on the anchor cable，the telegraph put on full ahead and the helm to hard to port．When the engines responded at 0829 hours，the anchor chain was seen to be stretched out on the port beam with a great deal of weight on it and the ship&39;s head was 220° gyro with the vessel swinging to port．
The anchor was hove short to 2 shackles in the water by 0835 hours，and the vessel continued to drift westwards with 80-90 (full ahead) revolutions on the Engine．At this stage，orders were given to pay out the cable，which was paid out to 5 shackles in the water by 0838 hours，but that too failed to arrest the westward drift of the vessel．
At 0840 hours，December 7，1983，with the ship&39;s head on 180°，the UNISOL grounded on a rocky bottom，forward of the main engine on her star board side，in approximate position 48°20′30．5″ North，64°40′02″West．A spout of water mixed with oil about 60 centimeters in diameter and 2．5-3 meters high above the engine room bottom plating was observed，and at which time the main engines seemed to slow down．
问题：the wind was blowing ______．
A.West
B.East
C.North
D.south
The vessel had ______．A.one engine
B.two engines
C.three engines
D.fore engines
According to the passage， ______．A.The bow of the vessel parted the pier first
B.The stern of the vessel parted the pier first
C.The beam of the vessel parted the pier first
D.It can not tell which part of the vessel parted the pier first
It can be concluded that ______ ．A.the vessel was lying portside along the pier
B.the vessel was lying starboardside along the pier
C.the vessel was lying at a buoy
D.the vessel was anchored

第4题：
材料:
At 0840 hrs，with the ship&39;s head on 180°，the UNISOL grounded on a rocky bottom，forward of the main engine on her starboard side．A spout of water mixed with oil about 60cm in diameter and 2.5-3m high above the engine room bottom plating was observed，and at which time the main engines seemed to slow down．
The engine room flooded rapidly and the water level soon reached the electro-magnetic couplings，stopping the main engine．In the meantime，on being apprised of the situation，the Master ordered the evacuation of the engine room，which was successfully carried out under the supervision of the 2/E engineer，and the engine room crew were mustered on the boat deck wearing life jackets．
Shortly thereafter，the emergency air cut-off to the engine room and the emergency fuel shut-off were actuated causing the main generator to stop at 0845 hrs．The emergency generator then started up automatically．The starboard anchor was dropped in an attempt to prevent further westward drift．The vessel was by this time being subjected to pounding on the rocks，eventually breaking her back at 0930 hrs after which the violent motion ceased. Evacuation of the vessel commenced at 1045 hrs using 2 SAR helicopters with a Buffalo fixed-wing aircraft in attendance，and was completed at 1220 hours．
问题：
The main engine was caused to stop by the loss of the function of ________．
A.engine room bottom plating
B.emergency fuel shut-off
C.emergency air cut-off
D.electro-magnetic couplings
The reason that the violent motion of the vessel ceased was that ________．A.the starboard anchor was dropped properly to prevent further westward drift
B.the winds and/or seas decreased in a considerable extent
C.the vessel was held fast on the grounding rocks
D.the vessel's back was broken
This report is most likely prepared by ________．A.the master of the vessel
B.the cargo owners of the vessel
C.the shippers of the vessel
D.the independent investigator of the accident
The crew were taken off the vessel by ________．A.air-planes
B.helicopters
C.an fixed-wing aircraft
D.the boat under the supervision of the 2/E engineer

【听力原文】
A slump in vehicle sales by the three big US car manufacturers has renewed worries about the American economy. General Motors posted an 18％ drop in sales in June, Ford unveiled a 29％slump, Chrysler’s sales were down by 36％. Mark Gregory reports.
The combination of record fuel prices and an economy close to recession has led to a slump in sales. On current trends, fewer than 14 million cars and light trucks will be sold in the US this year, the market’s worst performance in 15 years. Shares in General Motors, America’s biggest car maker, have fallen to a level last seen in the 1950s. -
第13题：
If you are given engine orders, how should you reply and report?
正确答案：When engine orders given, first repeat it clearly and loudly, then ring the telegraph to the position ordered, when the revolution commanded of the engine is obtained, report it to the commander. Such as “dead slow astern”, that means to keep the ship run astern very slowly. When the order is given, repeat it “dead slow astern”, then ring the telegraph to the “dead slow stern” position., when the revolution is obtained, report “engine is dead slow astern, sir.”

第15题：
材料：
MV Magellan was inbound from Rotterdam to berth 207 at Southampton Container Terminal．At 0530 the pilot boarded the ship at the Nab Tower pilot station．The pilot&39;s and the master&39;s passage plans were exchanged and the ship&39;s pilot card was given to the pilot．
The passage continued along the East Solent，during which time there were various VHF radio conversations between vessels and Southampton VTS，about restricted visibility．The VTS officer gave the pilot a countdown from 5 to 2 cables to the Gurnard buoy．This was given so that the pilot could judge the timing of the wheel-over manoeuvre for the 141° turn into the narrow Thorn Channel．The wheel-over occurred at about 0652 and the ship began to turn．
At this time，the W Bramble and NE Gurnard buoys，which are at the entrance to Thorn Channel，could not be seen because of restricted visibility．Various helm and engine movements were made during the turn．However，when W Bramble and NE Gurnard buoys appeared，the pilot realized that the ship was in the wrong position for the heading she was on．Despite further helm and engine orders，the vessel grounded soon after，at 0700．It was not until about 0710 that the escort harbor launch informed VTS of the grounding．With the assistance of two tugs，the ship was refloated near the time of high water，and she safely berthed at 1232．
问题：
MV Magellan applied wheel at ________ to turn into the narrow Thorn Channel．
A.0530
B.0652

D.0710
The important navigational mark or marks at the entrance to the Thorn Channel is（are）________．A.Southampton Container Terminal
B.the East Solent
C.the Nab Tower
D.the W Bramble and NE Gurnard buoys
The suggestion of a countdown from 5 to 2 cables to the Gurnard buoy is ________．A.for the pilot to judge easily when the wheel should be used to make the turn into the narrow Thorn Channel
B.to remind the pilot that the depth around there is not sufficient for MV Magellan
C.to inform the pilot that the visibility around the buoy is reduced further
D.to request the pilot that further consideration should be given to the wheel-over manoeuvre for the 141° turn
It can be concluded that the cause of the grounding was that ________．A.the Bramble and NE Gurnard buoys were disappeared
B.the VHF radio conversations between vessels and Southampton VTS，about restricted visibility，were insufficient and improper
C.Thorn Channel was too narrow
D.there was an error of judgment by the pilot during the execution of the turn into Thorn Channel
