General Introduction of Transportation
• What is transportation?
• 在公路运输市场中，承运人可以使用现有的公路设施，无须先进行大量的资本投入。因此这个市场中竞争者很多，他们以有竞争力的价格提供相似的服务。
• 3. Rail offers the cost-effective transport of large quantities of cargos over long distances. It is especially good for cargos with high volume and low value, such as coal, timber and grain. • 4. It offer rapid, flexible delivery, but it is also perceived as expensive compared to the charges of land and ocean freight. Bulky cargo with low unit value can not afford to ship by air.

Unit7LogisticsTransportationUnit Seven Logistics TransportationPart One TextLogistics TransportationWhat is logistics transportation?Logistics transport or logistics transportation is the movement of people and goods from one place to another. The term is derived from the Latin trans(“across”) and portare(“to carry”). Industries which have the business of providing transport equipment, transport services or transport are important in most national economies, and are referred to as logistics transport industries.Transportation network is an important tie binding our economy together. Our strong and efficient transportation system provides business with access to materials and markets, and provides people with access to goods, services, jobs and other people. Transportation touches each one of us every day in all aspects of our life.A Diversity of Transportation ModesTransportation modes are the means by which people and freight are carried. They fall into one of three basic types, depending on over which physical environment they travel, land (road, rail and pipelines), water (maritime shipping), and air (aviation). Each mode is characterized by a set of technical, operational and commercial characteristics:Road transportation. Road infrastructures are large consumers of space with the lowest level of physical constraints among transportation modes. However, physiographical constraints are significant in road construction with substantial additional costs to overcome features such as rivers or rugged terrain１. Road transportation has an average operational flexibility as vehicles can serve several purposes but are rarely able to move outside roads. Road transport systems have high maintenance costs, both for the vehicles and infrastructures. They are mainly linked to light industries where rapid movements of freight in small batches are the norm２. Yet, with containerization, road transportation has become a crucial link in freight distribution.Rail transportation.Railways are composed of a traced path on which are bound with vehicles. They have an average level of physical constraints linked to the types of locomotives and a low gradient is required, particularly for freight. Heavy industries are traditionally linked with rail transport systems, although containerization has improved the flexibility of rail transportation by linking it with road and maritime modes３. Rail is by far the land transportation mode offering the highest capacity with a 23,000 tons fully loaded coal unit train being the heaviest load ever carried.Maritime transportation. Because of the physical properties of water conferring buoyancy and limited friction, maritime transportation is the most effective mode to move large quantities of cargo over long distances４. Main maritime routes are composed of oceans, coasts, seas, lakes, rivers and channels. However, due to the location of economic activities maritime circulation takes place on specific parts of the maritime space, particularly over the North Atlantic and the North Pacific. The construction of channels, docks and dredging are attempts to facilitate maritime circulation by reducing discontinuity. Comprehensive inland waterway systems include Western Europe, the V olga / Don system, St. Lawrence / Great Lakes system, the Mississippi and its tributaries, the Amazon, the Panama / Paraguay and the interior of China. Maritime transportation has high terminal costs, since port infrastructures are among the most expensive to build, maintain and improve. High inventory costs also characterize maritime transportation. More than any other mode, maritime transportation is linked to heavy industries, such as steel and petrochemical facilities adjacent to port sites.Air transportation. Air routes are practically unlimited, but they are denser over the North Atlantic, inside North America and Europe and over the North Pacific. Air transport constraints are multidimensional and include the site (a commercial plane needs about 3,300 meters of runway for landing and take off), the climate, fog and aerial currents. Air activities are linked to the tertiary and quaternary sectors, notably finance and tourism, which lean on the long distance mobility of people５. More recently, air transportation has been accommodating growing quantities of high value freight and is playing a growing role in global logistics.Pipelines. Pipeline routes are practically unlimited as they can be laid on land or under water. The longest gas pipeline links Alberta to Sarnia (Canada), which is 2,911 km in length. The longest oil pipeline is the Transiberian, extending over 9,344 km from the Russian arctic oilfields in eastern Siberia to Western Europe. Pipeline construction costs vary according to the diameter and increase proportionally with the distance and with the viscosity of fluids (from gas, low viscosity, to oil, high viscosity). The Trans Alaskan pipeline, which is 1,300 km long, was built under difficult conditions and has to be above ground for most of its path. Pipeline terminals are very important since they correspond to refineries and harbors.Telecommunications. Telecommunication routes are practically unlimited with very low constraints, which may include the physiography and oceanic masses that may impair the setting of cables６. They provide for the instantaneous movement of information (speed of light in theory). Wave transmissions, because of their limited coverage, often require substations, such as for cellular phone networks. Satellites are often using a geostationary orbit which is getting crowded. High network costs and low distribution costs characterize many telecommunication networks, which are linked to the tertiary and quaternary sectors (stock markets, business to business information networks, etc). Telecommunications can provide a substitution for personal movements in some economic sectors.Three Components of Logistics transportationWith the growth of international trade and the globalization of production, logistics transportation systems have been under increasing pressures to support additional demands. This could not have occurred without considerable technical improvements permitting to transport larger quantities of passengers and freight, and this more quickly and more efficiently. Few other technical improvements than containerization have contributed to this environment of growing mobility of freight. Since containers and intermodal transportation improve the efficiency of globaldistribution, a growing share of general cargo moving globally is containerized. Consequently, transportation is often referred as an enabling factor that is not necessarily the cause of international trade, but a mean over which globalization could not have occurred without７. A common development problem is the inability of logistics transportation infrastructures to support flows, undermining access to the global market and the benefits that can be derived from international trade８. International trade requires distribution infrastructures that can support trade between several partners９. Three components of logistics transportation facilitate trade:Transportation infrastructure. It concerns physical infrastructures such as terminals, vehicles and networks. Efficiencies or deficiencies in transport infrastructures will either promote or inhibit international trade.Transportation services. It concerns the complex set of services involved in the international circulation of passengers and freight. It includes activities such as distribution, logistics, finance, insurance and marketing.Transactional environment. It concerns the complex legal, political, financial and cultural setting in which international transport systems operate. It includes aspects such as exchange rates, regulations, quotas and tariffs, but also consumer preferences. Modal CompetitionA general analysis of transport modes reveals that each has key operational and commercial advantages and properties. However, contemporary demand is influenced by integrated transportation systems that require maximum flexibility１０. As a result, modal competition exists at various degrees and takes several dimensions. Modes can compete or complement one another in terms of cost, speed, accessibility, frequency, safety, comfort, etc. Although intermodal transportation has opened many opportunities for complementarity between modes, there is intense competition as companies are now competing over many modes in the transport chain. A growing paradigm thus appears to be supply chain competition where the modal competition component occurring over three dimensions１１:1. Modal usage. Competition involves the comparative advantage of using a specific or a combination of modes. Distance remains one of the basic determinants of modal usage for passengers transportation１２. However, for a similar distance, costs, speed and comfort can be significant factors behind the choice of a mode.2. Infrastructure usage. Competition results from the presence of freight and passenger traffic on the same itineraries linking the same nodes.3. Market area. Competition experiences between transport terminals for using new space (terminal relocation or expansion) or capturing new markets (hinterland).Modal competition can also been influenced by public policy where one mode could be advantaged over the others１３. This particularly takes place over government funding and regulation issues. The technological evolution in the transport industry aims at adapting the transport infrastructures to growing needs and requirements. When a transport mode becomes more advantageous than another over the same route or market, a modal shift is likely to take place. A modal shift involves the growth in the demand of a transport mode at the expense of another, although amodal shift can involve an absolute growth in both of the concerned modes１４. The comparative advantages behind a modal shift can be in terms of costs, convenience, speed or reliability. For passengers, this involved a transition in modal preferences as incomes went up, such as from collective to individual modes of transportation. For freight, this has implied a shift to faster and more flexible modes when possible and cost effective, namely trucking and air freight１５.Words and Expressions:access [ '?kses ] n. the act of approaching or entering; 通路,进⼊,使⽤之权aerial [ '??ri?l ] a. a pass to a receiver downfield from the passer; 空中的,航空的,空想的batch [ b?t? ] n. a collection of things or persons to be handled together;批, 成批, 分批bind [ 'baind ] v. to fasten or tie with a string; to place under obligation; 绑, 约束buoyancy [ 'b?i?nsi ] n. the tendency to float in water or other liquid; 浮⼒characterize [ 'k?rikt?raiz ] v. describe or portray the character or the qualities or peculiarities of; 表⽰...的特⾊,赋予...特⾊complementarity [ k?mplimen't?riti ] n. the interrelation of reciprocity whereby one thing supplements or depends on the other;补充,补⾜comprehensive [ k?mpri'hensiv ] a. including all or everything; 综合的,⼴泛的,理解的confer [k?n'f?: ] v. present; 赠予,协议constraint [ k?n'streint ] n. the state of being physically constrained; 约束, 强制,约束条件current [ 'k?r?nt ] n. a steady flow (usually from natural causes) ; (⽔、⽓、电)流,趋势discontinuity [ 'dis.k?nti'nju(:) iti ] n. lack of connection or continuity; 断绝,中断,不连续dredging [ 'dred?i? ] n. remove with a power shovel, usually from a bottom of a body of water; 挖泥;flexibility [ fleks?'biliti ] n. the property of being flexible; easily bent or shaped; 灵活性,柔韧性friction [ 'frik??n ] n. effort expended in moving one object over another with pressure; 摩擦,摩擦⼒;impair [ im'p?? ] v. make worse or less effective; 损害infrastructure [ 'infr?'str?kt??] n. the basic structure or features of a system ororganization; 下部构造,下部组织,基础结构，基础设施inhibit [ in'hibit ] v. limit the range or extent of; 禁⽌,抑制instantaneous [ inst?n'teinj?s ] a. occurring with no delay; 瞬间的,即刻的integrate [ 'intigreit ] v. make into a whole or make part of a whole; 整合,使...成整体interior [ in'ti?ri? ] a. the region that is inside of something; 内部的,内地的,国内的,在内的itinerary [ ai'tin?r?ri, i't- ] n. an established line of travel or access; 旅程,旅⾏指南,游记maritime [ 'm?ritaim ] a. relating to or involving ships or shipping or navigation or seamen; 海的,海上的,海事的mobility [ m?u'biliti ] n. the quality of moving freely; 可动性,变动性,情感不定multidimensional [ m?ltidi'men??nl ] a. having or involving or marked by several dimensions or aspects; 多维的norm [ n?:m ] n. a standard or model or pattern regarded as typical; 标准,规范operational [ ?p?'rei??nl ] a. being in effect or operation; 操作的,运作的paradigm [ 'p?r?daim, -dim ] n. a standard or typical example; 例,模范,词形变化表quaternary [ kw?'t?:n?ri ] a. coming next after the third and just before the fifth in position or time or degree or magnitude; 四的(四进制的,第四纪的)refinery [ ri'fain?ri ] n. an industrial plant for purifying a crude substance; 精练⼚rug [ r?g ] a. topographically very uneven; ⾼低不平的,崎岖的,粗糙的substantial [ s?b'st?n??l ] a. fairly large; ⼤量的,实质上的,有内容的terrain [ 'terein ] n. a piece of ground having specific characteristics or military potential; 地带,地域,地形tertiary [ 't?:??ri ] a. coming next after the second and just before the fourth in position; 第三的,第三位的,第三世纪的undermine [ ?nd?'main ] v. destroy property or hinder normal operations; 渐渐破坏,挖掘地基viscosity [ vis'k?siti ] n. resistance of a liquid to sheer forces (and hence to flow); 粘度,粘性cost effective low in cost 费⽤低廉的to be composed of to be or make the parts of由…组成to be derived from to receive from another source; gain; 来⾃; 起源于,由...⽽来to be linked to to join by or as if by a link; unit;连接(联系), 有关联to fall into to be included in or classified as; 分成(变成,开始)to lean on to rest on for support; 靠在...上,倚在...上Special Terms:intermodal transportation 多式联运logistics transportation infrastructure: 物流运输基础设施transactional environment 交易环境transportation modes 运输⽅式Notes to the Text:1．However, physiographical constraints are significant in road construction with substantial additional costs to overcome features such as rivers or rugged terrain.然⽽，⾃然地理限制条件在公路建设中尤为明显，⼤量的附加成本要⽤于克服河流或凹凸不平的地形的特点。

Sentences with Subjunctive Mood
The subjunctive mood has two important uses in formal English. Firstly, the subjunctive mood is used to express unreal situations, wishes or hypothetical situations. It is most often found in a clause beginning with the word if. Secondly, it is used in clauses following a verb that expresses command, demand, doubt, necessity, proposal, regret, request or suggestion of the speaker or writer. Whether in daily English or business English, we often encounter the subjunctive mood. It is essential that we understand just exactly what the subjunctive mood in a sentence is used to express.

商务英语第7单元

第七单元市场物流传统上，货物送达客户的过程被称为货物分运。

货物分运的起点是工厂。

经理们选择一系列仓库（储存点）和运输承运人，在规定的时间内花最少的成本将货物运送到最终目的地。

最近，货物分运被扩展成更广范的供应链管理。

供应链管理的起点比货物分运要早；它的做法是努力去获得合适的投入品（原材料、组件和资本设备）；将它们有效地转化为制成品；再把制成品运送到最终目的地。

它更广泛意义上的做法是研究公司的供应商们怎样获得投入品的原材料。

供应链管理方法能使一个公司选择较好的供应商和分运商并帮助他们提高生产力，这将最终降低公司的成本。

不幸的是，供应链方法把市场仅仅视为最终目的地。

如果公司能首先考虑目标市场的要求并从这点出发来设计供应链，那么公司的运作会更有效率。

这种观点就是市场物流。

市场物流是指计划、实施和控制从起点到最终点间进行的原材料和制成品的实物流动以满足客户的要求并从中获利。

市场物流导致了对需求链的探索，以下是一些需求链的例子：1.一家软件公司通常把它的挑战看成是生产和包装软件盘和说明书，然后将它们运送给批发商，由批发商再运送给零售商，最后卖给顾客。

顾客把软件包带回家里或是办公室，再将软件下载到他们的硬盘上。

市场物流对这种方法提出质疑，认为有两种更好的交货方法：第一种是订购，将软件直接下载到顾客的硬盘上。

另一种是由电脑制造商将软件安装到电脑里。

这样就不再需要印刷、包装、运输和存储数百万的磁盘和说明书。

这两种方法同样能用于音乐、报纸、录像游戏、电影以及其他传播声音、文字、数据或图像的产品的传送。

2.以前，德国消费者都是购买单瓶装的软饮料。

然而据他们称，他们更愿意购买六瓶装的软饮料，一次就能买六瓶。

零售商也赞同这种包装，因为这样能更快的将饮料摆上货架，并且一次就能卖出更多瓶饮料。

一家软饮料生产商设计了适合摆放的六瓶装。

接着，适合运输这些六瓶装到商店的货箱和托盘也应运而生。

工厂的操作经过重新设计后也开始生产这种新的六瓶装。
