二．关联题（每组关联题题干下有4个小题，每小题4个选项）
第一组：
On the bridge for the approach to the pilot boarding ground were the Master, who had the con, the Mate, as Watch Officer, and a seaman at the wheel, while the Third Mate went on deck to meet the pilot. The normal procedure onboard
was for the Second Mate to prepare the voyage plan and to lay off the courses on the charts. However, because the passage from Burnie to the Tamar River was
relatively short and because he intended stopping and drifting for two to three
hours, the Master decided to lay off the courses himself.
In the past, when the company employed Japanese officers, the Master would discuss operational and navigational procedures with them. However,
since the introduction of the employment of Filipino officers, the Master no
longer did this, with the result there was no cohesive(凝聚力) bridge team. When the pilot launch arrived alongside, the Mate went to the port bridge wing and
remained there until such time as the Pilot had gained the deck. At a critical stage, when manoeuvring close to a reef, he was providing no active support to the
Master by monitoring the vessel’s progress, either by radar or by the electronic plotting table. With no active support from the Mate, the Master had quickly
plotted the position at a time he recorded as 0606, from which he realised there was a danger of the stern swinging into the eastern shallows of Hebe Reef. In
instructing the helmsman to steady on 160o, however, he does not appear to have appreciated the developing situation with West Reef, created by that action, and the vessel grounded fast in the Reef.
69．The Master did not discuss operational and navigational procedures with his mates because _____.
A．he has ethnic or cultural prejudice in his dealings with those officers
B. he laid off the courses himself
C. the bridge was adequately manned for the operation
D. the Second Mate did not prepare the voyage plan and lay off the courses
on the charts
70．Of the following _______ is not a contributing factor leading to the grounding accident.
A. that Master did not inform the Mate of his intended actions or seek the
Mate’s support in monitoring and advising him on the progress of the
manoeuvres
B. that the Mate did not provide active support to the Master
C. that navigational equipment was either ignored or not used to full effect
D. that the Mate went to the port bridge wing and remained there
71．It is inferred that the vessel started the voyage in _______.
A. an early morning
B. a late evening
C. an afternoon
D. a midnight
72．The main cause of this accident is the lack of _______.
A. seamanship skill of the Master and the Mates on the bridge
B. Bridge Resource Management procedures,
C. academic education of the crew members, including the Master and Mates
D. communications between the Pilot, the Master and the Mates on board the
vessel
第二组:
Some older decisions have held that the carrier, in order to rebut the presumption(推断) of liability resulting from the arrival in damaged condition of goods shipped undamaged, must prove not only that the loss or damage was caused by one of the excepted perils, but also that the harm did not result from any negligence on the carrier’s part.
Most more recent decisions and authors, however, uphold the view that, in general, the carrier may rebut the claimant’s prima facie case simply by proving that the loss was caused by an excepted peril. At that point, the onus switches to the cargo claimant to prove that the true cause of the loss was the carrier’s negligence.
Nevertheless certain Hague and Hague/Visby Rules exceptions, expressly or implicitly, also require the carrier to negative its own negligence in proving the exception itself. For example, a clause in the said rules expressly imposes on the carrier the burden of proving that the loss or damage occurred without its actual fault or privity and without any fault or neglect on the part of its servants or agents.
The carrier, however, must truly prove the existence of one or more of the exceptions and their causative role in respect of the loss or damage. Conjectures and speculation(猜想和推测) do not take the place of hard evidence. A court has held: “Mere speculation will not overcome the prima facie evidence of a clean bill of lading”.
73. The carrier will be held liable for the loss or damage if _______．
A. it is proved that he has privity to the loss or damage
B. it is proved that the fault or neglect on his part is not the true
cause of the loss or damage
C. it is too onerous for him to demonstrate that the loss or damage
is caused by what is beyond his control
D. there are conjectures and speculation
74．In accordance with old decisions, the carrier will not be excused unless he has proved that _______．
A． not only the loss or damage was caused by one of the excepted perils, but also that the harm did not result from any negligence on the
his part.
B. the loss or damage was caused by one of the excepted perils
C. the harm did not result from any negligence on his part
D. there are conjectures and speculation
75. In accordance with most more recent decisions and authors, the carrier
will not be excused unless
he has proved that _______．
A. not only the loss or damage was caused by one of the excepted
perils, but also that the harm did not result from any negligence
on the his part.
B. the loss or damage was caused by one of the excepted perils
C. the harm did not result from any negligence on his part
D. there are conjectures and speculation
76. It is concluded that _______．
A. The carrier is not in a position to prove the loss or damage is
substantially caused by one or more of the excepted perils
B. It can not be decided that whether the carrier has to prove the
loss or damage is substantially caused by one or more of the
excepted perils because there are some differences between the
decisions and authors and requirements of Hague and Hague/Visby
Rules
C. The carrier do not have to prove the loss or damage is
substantially caused by one or more of the excepted perils due
to the fact that there are some differences between the decisions
and authors and requirements of Hague and Hague/Visby Rules
D. The carrier must truly prove the loss or damage is substantially
caused by one or more of the excepted perils even there are some
differences between the decisions and authors and requirements
of Hague and Hague/Visby Rules
