Despite some lower court expressions to the contrary，the more prevalent view is that loading，stowing and discharging are "non-delegable" obligations of the carrier of goods by sea. In consequence，while it may be permissible to transfer the responsibility for paying for loading，stowing and discharging to the shipper or consignee (e.g. by inserting an "FIOST" clause in the bill of lading)，this or any other clauses which purport to also transfer the liability for fault or negligence in the conduct of these operations from the carrier to cargo are null and void，because they relieve or lessen the carrier's obligations otherwise than as permitted by the Act. This position is well-founded，given the fundamental purpose of the Rules and the national statutes of protecting shippers and consignees against the superior bargaining power of carriers. While acceptable in charterparties，which are contracts of private carriage，such clauses are rightly set aside by courts in carriage under bills of lading.69. According to this passage，"FIOST" clause in the bill of lading is ______.A. not accepted by courtsB. acceptable in courtsC. a non-delegable clause in the bill of ladingD. incorporated in the bill of lading to avoid superior bargaining by the carrieragainst thereceiver70. The prevalent view is that ______.A. the carrier may validly delegate its responsibility for discharging the cargo to another partyB. whether the carrier may validly delegate its responsibility for discharging thecargo to another party is still in disputeC. it is not necessary to consider whether the carrier may validly delegate itsresponsibility for discharging the cargo to another partyD. the carrier may not validly delegate its responsibility for discharging the cargoto another party71. In the eyes of law，an "FIOST" clause in the bill of lading ______.A. does not transfer the responsibility for paying for loading，stowing anddischarging to theshipper or consigneeB. has nothing to do with the responsibility of the carrierC. relieves or lessens the carrier's obligations otherwise than as permitted by the ActD. imposes more obligations to the carrier than as permitted by the Act72. It can be inferred that the author______the opinion that the carrier may validlydelegate its responsibility for discharging the cargo to another party.A. supportsB. does not supportC. has not indicated whether he supports or notD. has no interest in discussing第二组：When SEA EMPRESS was two or three cables from the Channel entrance，the pilot saw from the changing aspect of the Outer Leading Lights that there was a set to the east. He ordered a course change of 5° to port. The vessel，which was now closing with the Mid Channel Rocks Light Buoy，started to turn to port. The pilot saw the Outer Leading Lights close and then open to the east as the bows entered the channel. The Buoy was very close to starboard and the pilot now saw that the fixed red and fixed white lights of the Outer Leading Lights，the ones indicating the east side of the deepest water in the Channel entrance，were also open to the east.After the bows had passed the Middle Channel Rocks Light to starboard there was a shuddering vibration，then a sound from the deck below of liquid being forced under pressure，accompanied by a strong smell of oil. The helmsman reported that the vessel was not steering and the pilot ordered 'full astern'. The Chief Officer recorded this order andthe vessel's position，which was 1.4 cables northwest of Middle Channel Rocks Light. SEA EMPRESS，which was trimming by the head and taking a starboard list，continued to run ahead as the main engine was on full astern. There were further main engine movements and the vessel finally lost all way after she grounded again in a position about 3.3 cables south-by-west of the Mill Bay Buoy. The main engine was put to 'stop'. SEA EMPRESS was by this time significantly trimmed by the head and had taken an 18° list to starboard with the starboard fore part of the deck awash and was heading in a northwesterly direction.73. The course of SEA EMPRESS，when entering the Channel entrance，was mostlikely in a direction of ______.A. NorthB. EastC. SouthD. West74.“The pilot saw the Outer Leading Lights close and then open to the east as thebows entered the channel”. This indicates that ______.A. the front Leading Light appeared to move to the left of the rear Leading LightB. the rear Leading Light appeared to move to the right of the front LeadingLightC. the rear Leading Light appeared to move to the east of the front Leading LightD. the front Leading Light appeared to move to the east of the rear Leading Light75. When SEA EMPRESS was grounded the second time，her smallest freeboard was on her ______.A. port side before mid sectionB. port side after mid sectionC. starboard side before mid sectionD. starboard side after mid section76. A conclusion can be drawn from this passage that SEA EMPRESS was groundedat about ______ hours (LT).A. 0200B. 0900C. 1900D. 2200三．中译英（共2题，请将答案写在答题纸上）77. 就你方要求一油轮外档傍靠并跨过我轮卸货，及租船人同意你轮傍靠一事声明如下：根据租船合同傍靠条款，只有当装卸我船货物时才可傍靠，并且当船长认为此傍靠和装卸货作业不安全时，有权拒绝。
