海运运费率的类型(考试重点)
课文:Ocean freight rates may be broadly divided into tramp rates and liner freight rates.
注释:
freight rate:海运运费率
broadly:广泛,宽广地,大致上地
divide into:分为,分成
tramp rate:不定期船运费率
liner freight rate:班轮运输费率
译文:海运运费费率可大致上分成不定期船运费率和班轮运费率。
1.不定期船费率特点
Tramp rates fluctuate with market conditions of supply and demand. In a boom period, the tramp rates rise; in a period of recession, they decline.
译文:不定期船费率随航运市场的供求关系而波动。在市场繁荣时期,不定期船费率上升,在市场萧条时期,费率下降。
注释:
fluctuate:变动,波动,涨落
boom:繁荣
recession:不景气,萧条
2.班轮运输费率特点
Liner freight rates are fixed by shipping conferences and other liner operators; they are related more to the costs of operation and remain comparatively steady over a period of time.
注释:
fixed:固定的,确定
shipping conference:班轮公会
liner operator:班轮营运人
comparatively:比较地,相当地
steady:稳定的,稳固的,坚定的
over a period of time:在一定时期内
译文:班轮运费率由班轮公会和其他的班轮营运人确定;他们多与营运成本密切相关,在一定时期内保持相对稳定。
