5、ackage delivery companies.,Reading A,Reading A,Text,Task 1,Task 2,Business Know-how,Text A-1,How Do We Transport Our Goods? Goods must be transported from where they are produced to where their consumers are. There are five major modes of transport for goods, namely, rail transport, water transport,

6、 road transport, pipeline transport and air transport. Each mode of transport is characterized by different carriers.,Reading A,Text A-2,Railroads carry an important part of the total freight. The advantage of rail transport lies in its ability to meet different needs. Railroads can carry the heavie

7、st and the lightest products and can run at different speeds. For special types of goods railroads provide adapted cars. Thus for perishables refrigerator cars are used, for oil products there are tank cars, for different other materials dumper cars are used. The freight rates of railroads compare f

8、avorably with the other modes of transport.,Reading A,Text A-3,Waterway carriers offer a low-cost means of shipping bulky products which have a low transportation value in relation to weight. They are especially used when speed of transportation is not what matters the most. Container ships are comm

9、only used for the transport of goods between countries. Ore-carriers are specially designed for transporting ore, while tankers are used for crude oil transport.,Reading A,Text A-4,Motor-freight carriers are less advantageous for the transport of bulky, low-value goods. However, they can perform doo

10、r-to-door delivery, as they can reach even the most faraway places. Thus repeated handling and transshipment can be avoided, which is one of the advantages of transport by road. Tank lorries are used for liquids, refrigerator lorries for perishables, and vans for furniture and valuables.,Reading A,T

11、ext A-5,Pipelines carry liquids, gases, or solid/liquid mixtures over great distances. They can be laid on land or under water. In comparison with other carriers, they offer an economical way to transport crude oil and natural gas, especially when the volume is large. But the cost of construction an

12、d maintenance requires a large amount of investment.,Reading A,Text A-6,Air freight is used for goods where the higher cost of transport by air gives way to other considerations. For example, speed is the most important factor for the transportation of perishables, medicines and spare parts, while s

13、afety is the key to the transport of goods of high value.,Reading A,A-Trans-1,我們?nèi)绾芜\輸貨物 貨物必須從產(chǎn)地運往消費者所在地。目前有五種主要的貨物運輸方式，即：鐵路、水路、公路、管道和航空運輸。每種運輸方式都有其不同的運載工具。,Reading A,A-Trans-2,鐵路在整個貨物運輸中占據(jù)了重要的地位。鐵路運輸?shù)膬?yōu)勢在于這種運輸方式能滿足不同的需求。貨物無論輕重均可通過鐵路運輸，速度亦可變化。特殊貨物可使用改裝車廂運輸。冷藏車廂用來運輸易腐貨物，油罐車廂運輸油品，其他各種原料可使用自卸車廂。相對于其他運輸方式，

14、鐵路運輸?shù)倪\費是比較優(yōu)惠的。,Reading A,A-Trans-3,水路運輸工具為大宗貨物提供了廉價的運輸方式，相對于其重量而言，這些大宗貨物的運輸價值較低。如果運輸速度不是最主要考慮因素的話，人們特別愿意使用水路運輸方式。集裝箱貨輪常用于國家之間運輸貨物，特別設(shè)計的礦石貨船用于運輸?shù)V石，而運輸原油則使用油輪。,Reading A,A-Trans-4,公路貨車不太適合運輸體積大、價值低的貨物。不過，它們能實現(xiàn)門到門的遞送，因為連最偏僻的地方它們都能去，這樣避免了反復(fù)的搬運和轉(zhuǎn)運，而這也正是公路運輸?shù)囊粋€優(yōu)勢。人們使用罐車運輸液體，用冷藏車運輸易腐貨物，而廂式貨車則用來運輸家具及昂貴的商品。,

15、Reading A,A-Trans-5,管道可遠(yuǎn)距離運輸液體、氣體或固液態(tài)混合體，可鋪設(shè)于地上或水下。與其他運輸工具相比，用管道運輸原油和天然氣經(jīng)濟實惠，運輸量大時尤其如此。然而，管道建設(shè)及維護(hù)卻需要大量的資金投入。,Reading A,A-Trans-6,當(dāng)其他考慮優(yōu)先于高昂的航空運費時，則可選擇航空貨運。例如，運輸易腐貨物、藥品或機器備件時，速度是最重要的因素；而對于昂貴商品的運輸，安全性則最為關(guān)鍵。,Reading A,to have the character or qualities of,Reading A,be characterized by,e.g. Your work is
